The Great Search: AP3429A Low Cost Adjustable Buck Converter Alternative

We use the AP3429 in one of our little power breakout boards. It's a small but strong adjustable buck converter with 2A internal switch, 1MHz frequency, and an easy layout. It's also really affordable! As you may be guessing, it's very unavailable right now, with lead time into 2024 (!) We'll book the order, but in the next two years we should probably have something else available. We'll show you how we searched around to find an in-stock alternative that requires minimal board changes with same or better performance.
