Current-limiting regulators protect the circuits they feed but don't necessarily protect themselves against excessive dissipation. Here is an Idea For Design with a regulator that does both. A current ...

This Design Idea circuit regulates the current through one or more LEDs, making it almost independent of supply voltage. Its main advantage is a very small dropout voltage, which can be less than ...

This isolated current regulator produces currents up to ±10 A, depending on load configuration, with current determined by the tap chosen and a 0- to 1-V control voltage V ISET. When measuring the ...

Shown in the figure is an IC voltage regulator (also known as stabilizer), designed to increase its current output with the use of an outboard pass transistor. Voltage regulators are designed to ...

It’s often necessary to connect point-of- load (POL) dc/dc power supply modules in parallel to get a sufficiently high-current output for applications such as test instruments, blade servers, and so ...

We’ve never tried using an HDMI to VGA converter with Raspberry Pi. We heard they were expensive and have always just used HDMI out (although DVI would be just as easy). Apparently if you have a VGA ...

Last time, we went over switching regulator basics – why they’re wonderful, how do you find a switching regulator chip for your purpose, and how to easily pick an inductor for one. Your datasheet ...
