This circuit regulates a DC power output. It has a very wide application range. It can be used to control the speed of a motor, a pump, a toy train, the brightness of a LED or lamp, etc. Practically, ...

Switch-mode regulators include the buck (step-down) and the boost (step-up), forward and flyback topologies, as well as the SEPIC, hysteretic and multiphase converters. Two basic IC topologies are ...

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 ...

Infineon has introduced the OptiMOS IR3826(A)M integrated point-of-load DC-DC voltage regulator. The voltage regulator can operate from an input voltage of 12 V (5 V to 17 V) and provide up to 16 A or ...

Among regulators, the simplest regulator circuit is for a low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator whose topology is shown in Fig. 1. As a linear voltage regulator, its ...

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 ...

Today in power electronics, the folks over at Texas Instruments have put together a video covering low-dropout (LDO) linear regulators. For a hacker, power is pretty fundamental, so it behooves us to ...

Electric Slide: Improve reliability with a new electrical system, lighting and a solid state charging system upgrade for your C3 Vette Few things beat the ambiance and styling of a classic C3 Corvette ...

Efficient Power Conversion (EPC) has entered a licensing agreement with Renesas Electronics for EPC’s low-voltage enhancement-mode gallium nitride (eGaN) technology. Renesas will establish internal ...

Researchers in India have developed a new method to operate a solar-plus-storage system in a stable manner under varying operating conditions. They claim that their novel technique enables the ...
