Testing a regulator all the way down to zero volts to see how it behaves and finding an output level, below which bad things ...

So-called “conventional wisdom” sometimes takes a long time to change and recognize new realities. Among the many common beliefs is that switching regulators are relatively “high noise” devices, while ...

Integrating both a 36 V fast buck and linear regulator, the LTM8028 µModule®regulator from Linear Technology produces a low noise, digitally programmable, regulated output voltage (Fig. 1). Fig. 1.

In this guide, we explain the Voltage Regulator Module (VRM) in simple terms for everyone to understand. For the optimal performance and longevity of electronics, it is important to maintain stable ...

Some 99 percent of the “design” problems associated with linear and switching regulators can be traced directly to the improper use of capacitors: wrong type, wrong value, or incorrect physical ...

It’s often necessary to connect point-of- load (POL) dc/dc power supply modules in parallel to get a sufficiently high-current output for applications such as test instruments, blade servers, and so ...

Whether you’re aware of it or not, three-terminal voltage regulators automatically adjust power supply voltages in everything from audio consoles to distribution amplifiers to audio processing to STLs ...
