Boost converter

A boost converter is like a magic box that can turn a low voltage into a higher voltage. Imagine you have a toy car that needs a lot of power to go fast. The car runs on a battery that gives it 1.5 volts. But the car needs more power, maybe 6 volts, to go really fast.

Here's where the boost converter comes in. It takes the 1.5 volts from the battery and pumps it up to 6 volts, so the car can go as fast as it wants. The boost converter is like a supercharger for the battery.

The boost converter does this by using some special electronic components that work together. The components are like tiny helpers that work together to make the voltage go up. They're kind of like the gears in a bike that help you go faster.

So without the boost converter, the toy car would be slow and boring. But with the boost converter, it can go fast and be lots of fun!
