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 ...

This circuit is a Mosfet-based linear voltage regulator with a voltage drop of as low as 60mV at 1A. The circuit uses a 15V-0-15V transformer and employs an IRF540 N-channel Mosfet (Q1) to deliver the ...

Linear voltage regulators are key components in any power-management system that requires a stable and ripple-free power supply. A subset of linear voltage regulators is a class of circuits known as ...

What is the function of a voltage regulator IC? A voltage regulator generates a fixed output voltage of a preset magnitude that remains constant regardless of changes to its input voltage or load ...

Commonly used 3-pin linear voltage regulators, for example the LM317, cannot handle input voltages in excess of about 30V. The LR8A from Supertex Inc is a new, adjustable three pin regulator that can ...

For 0.13um to 0.35um Logic/Mixed-Signal, and 0.18um & 0.35um EEPROM CMOS process technologies Shanghai, CHINA, December 21, 2005 -- Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (“SMIC†, ...

Infineon has introduced six automotive linear regulators, protected against 40 or 45V, and supplying 3.3 or 5V at up 500mA, some with enable, watchdog or reset circuits (see the table below). Picking ...

[Karl Lunt] is working to slim the Raspberry Pi current draw as much as possible. The first step in his journey was to replace the linear voltage regulator with this switch mode version. It’s a ...

For as versatile and inexpensive as switch-mode power supplies are at all kinds of different tasks, they’re not always the ideal choice for every DC-DC circuit. Although they can do almost any job in ...
