MicroUSB Plug to 5.5/2.1mm DC Barrel Jack Adapter | Kiwi Electronics
2950

2950This passive adapter lets a 5 V USB source feed a 5.5 x 2.1 mm DC barrel input. It does not regulate or boost voltage; the barrel output follows the upstream USB supply.

Adafruit USB Type C Power Delivery Dummy Breakout - I2C of Fixed - HUSB238 visual previewAdafruit USB Type C Power Delivery Dummy Breakout - I2C of Fixed - HUSB238
USB-C PD sink/trigger breakout around the HUSB238. It negotiates a PD profile through jumpers or I2C and exposes power for a design, but it is not the same as a sealed barrel adapter cable.
€6.88
DC-DC Instelbare Step-up & Step-down Converter visual previewDC-DC Instelbare Step-up & Step-down Converter
Adjustable step-up/step-down converter. Kiwi lists 3.5-28 V input and 1.25-26 V adjustable output at about 1 A rated current, so the output must be set and checked before connection.
€6.04
LM2577 DC-DC Step-Up (Boost) Module visual previewLM2577 DC-DC Step-Up (Boost) Module
LM2577 boost module for raising a DC input to a higher adjustable output. Kiwi lists 3.5-35 V input and 5-40 V adjustable output; it is a boost converter, not a buck or buck-boost replacement.
