One is “switching regulator.\" A switching regulator is more efficient than other regulators, including linear ones. And within the world of switching regulators, it’s specifically named a “buck converter” because it opposes (“bucks off”) voltage from its input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuck converters themselves are sometimes called “step-down converters” or “step-down voltage regulators.” As the name implies, this sort of voltage regulator specifically regulates voltage down—and not up—from input voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-techTips\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTech Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncoming voltage (accepted via the BEC’s XT30 input) must be at least 1V above the selected output voltage, set at 3.3 by default.
