Efficiency is often the main objective when using switching regulators. High efficiency means less power drain on the input source (batteries, etc.) and less heat buildup around the regulator, ...

This article was prompted by a friend of mine asking for help on a board with an ESP32 heart. The board outputs 2.1 V instead of 3.3 V, and it doesn’t seem like incorrectly calculated feedback ...

A golden power supply that will satisfy every design requirement does not exist. Size, cost, and efficiency are the driving factors for selecting a design, causing each design to be different. This ...

Switching noise in power converters can be difficult to eliminate. However, a well-designed and optimized snubber circuit helps dampen this ringing and improve overall ...

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 ...

Manufacturers sell different types of switching regulators. The location of the storage elements in reference to the switching elements and their quantities generally determines the type of switching ...

Perhaps the simplest way to regulate a DC voltage is using a voltage divider and/or an active device like a Zener diode. Besides simplicity, they have the additional advantage of not being ...

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 ...

TTM Technologies, Inc. has announced the launch of the MSK5065RH module, a high-efficiency, radiation-hardened switching regulator designed for demanding space and defense applications. part of their ...

Whether you’re aware of it or not, three-terminal voltage regulators automatically adjust power supply voltages in everything from audio consoles to distribution amplifiers to audio processing to STLs ...

The T-Reg high-voltage regulator circuit delivers clean, stable power for tube amps. Supporting output voltages up to 500 V, ...
