lol I just finished designing this switching regulator onto my PCB to find out the voltage range isn't quit right... It's 1.8-5.5v input range when I was planning to use a 4x AA battery compartment which maxes out at 6v. I guess using a 3x is an option or I need to find another solution...
the thing was somewhat complicated to wire up on the PCB so I hope I don't have to redo that...

I was planning on using this: https://www.lcsc.com/datasheet/lcsc_datasheet_2409280102_NATLINEAR-XT3406AFMR-G_C190828.pdf
which is similar to this: https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tlv62565.pdf
