IC 78XX Series includes three terminal positive voltage regulators commonly available in TO 220 package. These are useful in wide range of applications to give precise output voltage. These regulators ...

The voltage reference is the last ingredient necessary to build a voltage regulator, otherwise known as the king of power management and power conversion. The most popular voltage references are based ...

What does voltage regulator actually mean? Find out inside PCMag's comprehensive tech and computer-related encyclopedia.

Given a noisy input and a variable load, a voltage regulator will give a nice clean, stable output voltage. We’ve covered the basic operation and usage of the LM317 many times.

To fully understand the 723 then is to fully understand low voltage linear regulators. The datasheet’s 723 supply with external pass transistor and current limit.

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.

A VRM is an essential part of every computer, but even many computer-savvy enthusiasts don't know what it is or how it works. We'll explain all.

Researchers at the US Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) say they have developed medium-voltage circuit breakers capable of handling increasing levels of DC at a lower cost.
