+- **dcdc** (*Optional*, boolean): Enable DC/DC converter for REG1 stage. Defaults to `true`.
+External LC filters must be connected to the DC/DC regulator pins if it is being used.
+The advantage of using a DC/DC regulator is that the overall power consumption is normally reduced
+as the efficiency of such a regulator is higher than that of a LDO.
+⚠️ Warning: Enabling DC/DC may cause the board to fail to boot if external LC filter is misconfigured or is poor quality.

-> If you don't set a `lambda` and `optimistic` is `false` (default), updates to the select component state will need to be taken care of as part of your `set_action` using `id(my_select).publish_state(x);` (in a lambda). Do not use [`select.set` Action](/components/select#select-set_action) here, as this would generate a loop. Also, don't use `id(my_select).state = x` as this won't have the desired effect (e.g. HA won't update with the change).
