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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

It’s impossible to understand the essentials of maximizing switching-supply efficiency across all potential loads without understanding the sources of circuit losses. Fortunately, it isn’t necessary ...

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 ...

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 ...

Perhaps the simplest way to regulate a DC voltage is using a voltage divider and/or an active device like a Zener diode. Besides simplicity, they have the additional advantage of not being ...

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 ...
