In Seemingly Simple Circuits: The TL431 Voltage Regulator, Part 2, we looked at how voltage gain of the TL431 is measured. Now we plunge deeper in, to look at closed-loop output resistance, derive ...

Commonly used 3-pin linear voltage regulators, for example the LM317, cannot handle input voltages in excess of about 30V. The LR8A from Supertex Inc is a new, adjustable three pin regulator that can ...

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 ...

Is it possible to design an unconditionally stable linear voltage regulator? In fact, many believe that most regulator ICs are unconditionally stable. The answer is both simple and complex, if it is ...
