Electrical scope
8–36 V operating input, adjustable output from 1.25 V, 180 kHz switching and the datasheet’s 5 A capability are IC statements subject to its test and thermal conditions.
Manufacturer model / selection entry
XL4015 is a bare 180 kHz buck-converter IC with an 8–36 V operating input range, adjustable output and TO263-5L package; assembled XL4015 boards have separate specifications.
Buyer and engineer answers
Statements below are scoped to the named manufacturer source. Commercial availability is deliberately separate.
8–36 V operating input, adjustable output from 1.25 V, 180 kHz switching and the datasheet’s 5 A capability are IC statements subject to its test and thermal conditions.
The manufacturer drawing identifies TO263-5L. XL4015E1 is the planned exact orderable code; packing quantity must be bound to the current ordering table.
It is an asynchronous bare IC requiring external components, not a finished CC/CV module. Module seller claims such as 4–38 V or 300 kHz are not assigned to the silicon.
Publication safeguard
Do not copy module specifications such as 4–38 V, 300 kHz or CC/CV into the bare-IC record.
Procurement FAQ
Compatibility answers remain conditional where the source evidence does not establish a direct replacement.
XL4015 is the IC. A board advertised with XL4015 is a separate assembled product.
It is treated as the exact orderable code and must remain distinct from the XL4015 base-model search page.
The reviewed manufacturer material does not support calling it a synchronous regulator; validate the application topology from the datasheet.
Do not treat 5 A as an unconditional board-level guarantee. Thermal design, input/output conditions and external components control achievable output.
