[Kevin Darrah] wanted to make a simple 3.3V regulator without using an integrated circuit. He wound up using two common NPN transistors and 4 1K resistors. The circuit isn’t going to beat out a ...
it can be a shunt regulator, and there is even a circuit for its use as a switching regulator in the data sheet. To fully understand the 723 then is to fully understand low voltage linear regulators.
Modifying the oddly consistent two-resistor control network topology for output voltage programming to allow for DAC control.
A subset of linear voltage regulators is a class of circuits known as low dropout (LDO) regulators. This paper explains the fundamentals of LDOs and introduces Vidatronic’s LDO technology which solves ...
The LDO voltage regulator can be in a standalone Power-Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC), or an embedded circuit within a System on a Chip (SoC). A typical LDO voltage regulator normally requires ...
