[Kevin Darrah] wanted to make a simple 3.3V regulator without using an integrated circuit. He wound up using two common NPN transistors and 4 1K resistors. The circuit isn’t going to beat out a ...

The LDO voltage regulator can be in a standalone Power-Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC), or an embedded circuit within a System on a Chip (SoC). A typical LDO voltage regulator normally requires ...

A subset of linear voltage regulators is a class of circuits known as low dropout (LDO) regulators. This paper explains the fundamentals of LDOs and introduces Vidatronic’s LDO technology which solves ...

To solve this problem a switching regulator can be used instead ... Reducing ripple in this situation involved designing low-inductance circuit traces on the PCB as well as implementing a number ...

However, this circuit cannot regulate its output voltage down to the low limit Vref; this is its limitation. There are several alternative configurations of safe adjustable regulators that more or ...

In hydraulic power systems, these regulators both unload the fluid being pumped and regulate a set operating pressure. All positive displacement fixed-volume pumps for hydraulic circuits require an ...
