The DC-DC is significantly more efficient than the LDO. The DC-DC and LDO have typical efficiencies of 80% and 30%, respectively. However, using the DC-DC comes with the trade-offs outlined below:
NOTE
An external DC-DC has the potential to be more efficient and less impactful in terms of noise since its switching is external to the MCU but comes at the expense of much increased component cost.
