In the old days every instrument or system had a power supply board with discrete, homemade regulators on it to power the system. Then IC’s like the LM7805 series of voltage regulators changed ...
Targeted for use in offline AC/DC switched-mode power supplies, three current-mode, fixed-frequency switching regulators from ON Semiconductor incorporate an avalanche-rated 650-V MOSFET that improves ...
We often use linear regulators in our designs. They are cheap and simple – you put the regulator chip itself on the board, add two capacitors, and get a voltage. Linear regulators are imperfect, of ...
A low-dropout (LDO) regulator is a simple, inexpensive way to generate a regulated output voltage from a higher-voltage input. It’s inherently low-noise because it has no switching transients, and it ...
Electronic systems often require multiple voltages to power the various internal circuits. Non-isolated regulators are a common and easy way to convert one voltage to another. Regulators typically ...
Is it possible to design an unconditionally stable linear voltage regulator? In fact, many believe that most regulator ICs are unconditionally stable. The answer is both simple and complex, if it is ...
