Voltage regulator IC’s, with 3 pins, from LM7805 and LM7812 series are excellent for usage in voltage regulator circuits. If you need higher currents, up to 3 A, you must add a complementary ...

This voltage regulator delivers smooth control of a constant voltage from 0 to 8 V. It protects the load against short circuits and indicates connection, overload, and output level. The series chain ...

Before you can design an adjustable voltage regulator into your circuit, or do a redesign, you need to calculate the values for two resistors. This is not difficult in itself, but actually finding 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 ...

It’s often necessary to connect point-of- load (POL) dc/dc power supply modules in parallel to get a sufficiently high-current output for applications such as test instruments, blade servers, and so ...

QUESTION: There are so many different voltage regulators on the market these days. How do I pick one that will be good for my circuit? ANSWER: Wow, this is a tough question, but also a good one. I’ll ...

A critical aspect of power supplies is dc supply-voltage stability. In addition to powering circuits, a precision dc voltage is often used as a reference to which voltage signals are compared for ...

Residential and commercial circuit breakers face three major challenges: detecting arc faults reliably, reducing false trips ...
