Every project needs a power supply. As 3.3volt logic replaces 5volt systems, we’re reaching for the LM317 adjustable voltage regulator, rather than the classic 7805. We’ve found four different ...

The LM317 is a type of linear voltage regulator that allows for adjusting the output voltage by varying some resistors. Whats the best way to power your circuits? well that depends… ...

QUESTION: There are so many different voltage regulators on the market these days. How do I pick one that will be good for my circuit? ANSWER: Wow, this is a tough question, but also a good one. I ...

In the first three linear regulators, as the maximum input voltage rating increases, the available output current decreases. The LM317 & LM317HV devices offer the advantage over the dated ua7824 in ...

Up to now, this battery level indicator design was limited to 12 & 24V applications. In past circuits, the use of fixed resistors greatly simplifies setup. However, fixed resistors resulted in ...

Is it possible to design an unconditionally stable linear voltage regulator? In fact, many believe that most regulator ICs are unconditionally stable. The answer is both simple ...
