Anyone know of a cheap +5V switching regulator with the following spec

Vin 1.6 - 7.5V

Vout +5V

Iout 100mA

Many thanks

RE: +5V Switching Regulator

That's a pretty tough input requirement..... the regulator will have to be some sort of buck-boost configuration.  Where have you looked?

RE: +5V Switching Regulator

(OP)
The MAX710, MAX711, Micrel mic2570 and the Linear LT1073 look quite reasonable although I'm sure quite expensive.

These are the few I have come up with.  Just wondering if there are any others?

About £3 was a price I got.  I will check out the MAXIM part.  Thanks

RE: +5V Switching Regulator

Check out the National Semiconductor LM2621...

I think this will meet your requirements... depending on how many you want, its around $1.50

Good luck!
