The PTH04070W is a highly integrated, low-cost switching regulator module that delivers up to 3 A of output current. Occupying less PCB area than a standard TO-220 linear regulator IC, the PTH04070W provides output current at a much higher efficiency and with much less power dissipation, thereby eliminating the need for a heat sink. Their small size (0.5 × 0.4 in), high efficiency, and low cost makes these modules attractive for a variety of applications. The input voltage range of the PTH04070W is from 3 V to 5.5 V, allowing operation from either a 3.3-V or 5-V input bus. Using state-of-the-art switch
