Designers frequently use linear regulators to postregulate switching-regulator outputs. The benefits of this approach include improved stability, accuracy, and transient response, along with lower ...

It’s become a matter of debate as to precisely when the 78xx series of linear regulators were designed or when they hit the market for that matter. Some will tell you their lineage can be traced back ...

A regulator is a closed-loop feedback system. For the LDO to be stable, the phase margin must be positive. In other words, at unity gain crossover frequency of the gain curve, the phase of the system ...

People have been predicting the demise of low-drop-out linear regulators in cars for many years. Yet low-drop-out (LDO) regulators continue to survive and even thrive because they're cheap and easy to ...

Linear regulators have limitations with regard to supplying a quiet voltage rail. Alternatively, some very quiet switch-mode power converters, along with some design considerations, can provide a very ...

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 ...

Linear Technology has produced a high-power dual voltage reference, allowing the reference replace the circuit power supply regulator. Specs are excellent, with outputs offering 0.05% initial accuracy ...

iLR-Victoria-ref-1.62-3.63-0.8-2.5.02_TSMC_40_LP is a Low dropout linear voltage regulator in TSMC 40LP.

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 ...
