Efficiency is often the main objective when using switching regulators. High efficiency means less power drain on the input source (batteries, etc.) and less heat buildup around the regulator, ...

This article was prompted by a friend of mine asking for help on a board with an ESP32 heart. The board outputs 2.1 V instead of 3.3 V, and it doesn’t seem like incorrectly calculated feedback ...

Use of buck-boost circuits in switching-regulator ICs. Considerations in level-shift circuit design. Switching regulators with internal level shifting. The magnitude of the negative voltage generated ...

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 ...

There are only a limited number of switching regulators designed to generate negative output voltages. In many cases, it’s thus necessary to use a switching regulator that was actually designed for a ...

Feedback-control schemes for linear systems have been around since at least the 17 th century, regulating pressure and distance between millstones and then, famously, to control James Watt’s steam ...

A switching regulator can be constructed either monolithically or via a controller. In a monolithic switching regulator, the respective power switches, usually MOSFETs, are integrated within a single ...

Nisshinbo Micro Devices has launched the NJW1871 series Boost/Fly-Back Switching Regulator Controller, intended for small to mid-range power supplies in consumer, industrial, and automotive ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ABLIC Inc. (President: Nobumasa Ishiai, head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo, hereinafter “ABLIC”) today launched the S-19914/5 Series of low EMI step-down switching regulators for ...

For as versatile and inexpensive as switch-mode power supplies are at all kinds of different tasks, they’re not always the ideal choice for every DC-DC circuit. Although they can do almost any job in ...
