“Chapter 5; Horowitz and Hill”. University students of all subjects will each have their standard texts of which everyone will own a copy. It will be so familiar to them as to be referred to by its ...

The ZXTR2000 family of high-voltage regulators from Diodes Incorporated boosts power-circuit densities through reductions in component count and footprint by monolithically integrating a transistor, ...

Editor’s note: Our guest bloggers are: Donald Schelle is an analog field applications engineer for Texas Instruments and has more than a decade of engineering experience. He received a bachelor’s ...

[Kevin Darrah] wanted to make a simple 3.3V regulator without using an integrated circuit. He wound up using two common NPN transistors and 4 1K resistors. The circuit isn’t going to beat out a cheap ...

This article presents linear regulators and the computation of its efficiency. It also describes the advantages and other properties of a linear regulator, as well as the low drop out (LDO) regulator, ...

Figure 1: Electrical characteristics of an electrolyte-gated transistor. Figure 3: Electrical characteristics of the heat-gated transistors. The high ionic Seebeck voltage of the polymer electrolyte ...

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 ...

Whether you’re aware of it or not, three-terminal voltage regulators automatically adjust power supply voltages in everything from audio consoles to distribution amplifiers to audio processing to STLs ...

Low dropout (LDO) regulators play a very important role in the power management of an integrated circuit. As a result, mindful designing and selection of LDO circuits become crucial. This article ...

Diodes Incorporated has introduced new space-saving package options for its ZXTR2000 series of high-voltage linear regulator transistors designed for 48V circuits in networking, telecom and power-over ...
