The linear voltage regulator was introduced in Part 11 of this series (link below). Successful application of this set of devices depends on an understanding of the specifications and knowledge of ...

LDO Basics: Noise Transforming a Standard Regulator into an LDO A linear regulator is inefficient because it dissipates power across the regulation device to regulate the output voltage.

I hope you found this short tutorial useful: there is much more that can be said about the ubiquitous linear voltage regulator and how the basic designs can be improved to optimise mission efficiency, ...

Linear voltage regulators are key components in any power-management system that requires a stable and ripple-free power supply. A subset of linear voltage regulators is a class of circuits known as ...

A chapter from the book “Energy Storage Devices for Electronic Systems” describes a design technique that uses a supercapacitor to improve linear regulator performance.The supercapacito ...
