A
buck-boost converter is a type of DC-DC converter used to
step up (boost) or
step down (buck) a DC voltage level depending on the need.
✅ Purpose of a Buck-Boost Converter:
The main purpose is to
provide a stable output voltage, even when the input voltage is
higher or lower than the required output voltage.

Simple Example:
Imagine you have a battery that gives
7V, but your circuit needs a
fixed 5V. Sometimes the battery drops to
4V or goes up to
8V. A buck-boost converter can adjust this and always give you a
steady 5V output.
