This innovation is based largely, but not entirely,
on advances in magnetic materials,
and it didn’t come quickly.
Noted Jeff Morroni, director of power management research and development
at TI's Kilby Labs,
 
For example:
1.8 to 5.5V in to 5.5V out at 5.5A size 2.5 x 2.6 mm boost module
More examples in link.
 
 
 

1W isolated 5 -> 3.3V, 4x5x1 mm, SS, *76 MHz* switching frequency, for
$1.50 @ 1ku?

Potentially pretty cool!

Cheers
