Step Up Module MT3608 Adjustable Step Up Boost DC 2A 2V-24V TO 5V-28V

parts help

Hi. I’m looking for a model for Fritzing of the MT3608 module. Or, do you guys have an alternative for my project, I have an adapter DC 9V 1A and I want to step up to 12V to power my pilot lamp 16mm 12V. I’m using ESP32 connected with a relay to control the on/off lamps. I just want to utilize what I have which is adapter 9V 1A but I have another adapter to power the ESP32 which is 5v 3A. I hope @Vanepp and others are willing to help me with this:

There doesn’t appear to be a part for this particular unit. This one however should do the same job (just looks somewhat different)

looks like this

has the correct number of ins an outs just not the same components.

That’s helpful @vanepp, thanks a lot.

I’d use a transistor to drive the lamps. The relay is an inductive load (unless you are using an opto isolated relay module) and likely needs a driver. A relay also has a finite lifetime (being mechanical) which a transistor doesn’t. A mosfet in place of the transistor will works as well.

FritzingCheckPart.py is complaining that the dimensions are in px (and thus the sizes will potentially be incorrect!):

although at least schematic appears to be scaled correctly (breadboard and pcb are harder to determine and may or may not be correct.)

If you can find the time (always in short supply unless you are retired like me :slight_smile: ) uploading them would be appreciated. A google search for this part didn’t find anything else thus the reference to the mini360 part which isn’t a perfect match like yours …

I’m not sure why this one didn’t show up in a search…

A google search of the form “fritzing part MT3608 Module” just now still doesn’t show up this part. Was it posted in the forums? I see by a search in the forum (my bad! I assumed google would find all such forum posts!) that it was and a search in the forums would have found it. I don’t know why google isn’t finding it.

I’ll have to remember to do a forum search in future!

I’m not retired… Only getting tired… :rofl:
After working on Fritzing, Eagle, Freecad & corel/AI at the same time on my own projects…
It took me over 6 months to understand all the feature of eagle & making a new part…!!!
Now, want to create models on Autocad3D, hope it’ll be easy…!!! Also have to learn Python also for new Pi-pico…!!! :weary: :weary:

Anyway, I’ll try next month… At first I’ve to upload all files on github…
That’ll be best, because time to time I update my old files, so in one thread anyone can get the latest version…

It could be because google only showing result with the titles “MT3608 Module”…
But still unusual, that search result is only one page, no deep search…

btw, your design is very realistic… :+1: :+1:
I usually rejects extra details to keep it in lowest size, so the app could load those parts faster…
