Ok, so this isn't really audio related, but I bet someone here might have a good idea how to do it.
I want to make a unit that takes 4 x AA batteries (4-7V cumulative) and outputs a regulated 5.2V hooked to a standard USB jack. This would be primarily for use with my Nintendo DS (for when I'm using my EZ Flash 4 and moonshell), but possibly would be used to charge other USB devices.
I know I could build a circuit using an LM3478 or the like, but that would require lots of other components, and making a PCB.
Can anybody suggest a solution that won’t require external inductors/MOSFETS, and has a low part count?
Thanks for the help.
