AP3429A 3.3V Buck Converter Breakout - 3.3V Output 1.2A Max
We have ✅ 1 available of the AF-4711 in our Sydney warehouse. An extra 100 units available with a short lead time.
The AP3429A Buck Converter Breakout steps down 3.4–5.5V input to a stable 3.3V output at up to 1.2A, with 90–95% efficiency. It's ideal for powering 3.3V circuits from LiPo batteries, 3× alkaline cells, or USB power sources.
Designed to be pin-compatible with the LM1117-3.3V TO-220 regulator, you can swap it in for significantly better efficiency. An enable pin lets you shut down the output completely by pulling it low. Comes fully assembled and tested with header included for breadboard use.
