Developed as a three-terminal shunt regulator, the popular and multiple-sourced TL431 IC offers designers many intriguing possibilities beyond its intended application. Internally, the TL431 comprises ...

Combining the operation of a boost regulator and a negative voltage converter can generate a negative supply from a single low voltage supply. The circuit in Figure 5 shows a standard application ...

This project demonstrates the design and layout of a 5V to 3.3V Low Dropout (LDO) Voltage Regulator using Altium Designer. It is intended for applications that require a stable 3.3V power supply from ...

Often, electronic systems are guaranteed to operate with any supply voltage, within a given VCC range. Testing these circuits requires a regulated voltage supply that ...

For as versatile and inexpensive as switch-mode power supplies are at all kinds of different tasks, they’re not always the ideal choice for every DC-DC circuit. Although they can do almost any job in ...

[Afroman] contacted us to share his new video on the LM317. The humble LM317 adjustable voltage regulator is everywhere. From wifi routers, to high spec lab equipment. Given a noisy input and a ...
