A linear and low-dropout regulator (LDO regulator) is a very simple and economical regulator that is used to provide a regulated o/p voltage that is simply powered from a high input voltage in different applications. A regulator operates at an extremely low potential difference between the I/O voltages so the use of this regulator will help in controlling the increase of heat & allow efficient energy usage. There are many LDO regulators which are most frequently used in different … [Read more...]
What is an LDO Regulator : Working & Its Parameters
When integrating a voltage supply to any other equipment, we may encounter certain unwanted voltage variations. These variations at the voltage supply level can cause severe damage to the devices. So, there is a need to maintain a constant voltage at the supply level. This is where 'Voltage Regulator' comes into the picture. Voltage regulators are the devices that maintain a stable output voltage irrespective of the changes at the input voltage and load. Based on their design there are various … [Read more...]
What is 7805 Voltage Regulator & Its Working
When there are fluctuations in the circuit, then the fixed output cannot be given by all voltage sources. To deal with this, a system is designed to maintain a constant voltage level automatically is Voltage Regulator. These voltage regulators are used in computer power supplies for stabilizing the DC voltages. Coming to power station generation plants and automobile alternators, the output is controlled by these voltage regulators. The regulation of one or more AC or DC voltages is done … [Read more...]
