We think it’s a great learning experience to tear back the veil of abstraction and learn a bit more about the hardware found on an Arduino board. This project is a great example. [Scott Daniels] takes ...

Power management of battery-powered electronic devices is becoming increasingly more important for the microelectronics industry. This white paper details the difference between low dropout (LDO) ...

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 ...

The circuits were designed using a single IC L200 to create two different regulators where one circuit functions as high current regulator using NPN pass transistors while the other circuit functions ...

The increasing demand of mobile computing and handheld devices are driving architects to move from discrete components to tightly integrated System on Chip (SoC). The back-end servers are also ...

Why the power-delivery network is critical in modern power electronics. How integrated voltage regulators can improve the PDN and simplify the PCB design. How IVRs improve power delivery to processors ...

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 ...
