Voltage regulators play an important role in many power systems. The first part of this Back to Basics article examines the role of several types of regulators including low-dropout voltage regulators ...

Switch-mode regulators include the buck (step-down) and the boost (step-up), forward and flyback topologies, as well as the SEPIC, hysteretic and multiphase converters. Two basic IC topologies are ...

A step-by-step guide for applying an old DI that used simple circuits for PWM programming of standard bucking-type regulator ...

For the longest time, Zener diode regulators have been one of those circuits that have been widely shared and highly misunderstood. First timers have tried to use it to power up their experiments and ...

When the fuel gauge of his 1975 Triumph Spitfire started going off the scale, the collected knowledge of the Internet indicated that [smellsofbikes] needed to replace a faulty voltage regulator behind ...
