Cheapest switching regulator possible?

Do you have a technical question that doesn't really fit a specific console? Want some general info on electronics, hacking, making cookies, etc? Here's the place to ask! Go nuts.

Another one!

A little simpler than the one you found, but 20 or so cents more expensive. Your choice.

Would it be possible to use the one in a gba or gba sp? They boost 3.3v to 5v I think.

Hmm, plus it can handle up to 3A. We might have a winner. Thank you so much for your input everyone!

Yeah, but the credit goes to some other guy (can't remember the name) who pointed out the model. The credit, however, goes to me for actually finding it. :D
