The SparkFun Buck Regulator Breakout - 3.3V (AP3429A) is a sophisticated device that features the AP3429A from Diodes Inc. This device is a 2 A step-down DC converter with an input voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V.

The full-size version of the buck regulator boards, measuring 1 inch by 1 inch, is designed to provide a regulated 3.3 V output. This output is derived from an input voltage range of 3.9 V to 5.5 V and is controlled by an EN (enable) pin.

To manage excess heat, the device is equipped with a 0.6-inch by 0.5-inch copper pad. This pad is designed to facilitate the attachment of a heat sink to the bottom of the board.

As a full-size buck regulator breakout, this device offers additional options for connecting input and output power. It includes a pre-assembled screw terminal for a non-permanent connection, the option to solder on a barrel jack for an external power supply, and five PTH pins to create a more permanent installation.

The device also includes a red power indication LED that illuminates when the power output is enabled. The board is designed with four mounting holes compatible with 4-40 hardware.
