Electronic systems often require multiple voltages to power the various internal circuits. Non-isolated regulators are a common and easy way to convert one voltage to another. Regulators typically ...

Linear Technology introduces the LTM8020, the first in a new family of DC/DC uModule regulator systems that operate from higher voltage input supplies of up to 36V (40Vmax). The LTM8020 is a 200mA ...

This circuit is a Mosfet-based linear voltage regulator with a voltage drop of as low as 60mV at 1A. The circuit uses a 15V-0-15V transformer and employs an IRF540 N-channel Mosfet (Q1) to deliver the ...

What do you do when your maximum input voltage = 90V and /or linear regulator has unreasonable power dissipation? First, here are a few specifications to digest for a 24V @ 70°C ambient application: ...

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 ...

Many power supplies use hold-up capacitors to keep enough energy at the full-wave or bridge rectifier output to supply a load when the rectified voltage drops and rises again at the next half-cycle of ...
