Sometimes I feel that the success that IC vendors have had at packing amazingly good performance and useful features into power-supply regulator ICs — whether low dropout (LDO) or a switcher — has ...

Every design begins with some assumptions, because you have to start somewhere. But as the design moves along, it’s often important and necessary to double-check if those assumptions are actually ...

Billed as the industry's first family of ICs combining a low-dropout (LDO) regulator and a single switch with a dual current limit for power management in USB applications, the TPS2140/41/50/51 are ...

People have been predicting the demise of low-drop-out linear regulators in cars for many years. Yet low-drop-out (LDO) regulators continue to survive and even thrive because they're cheap and easy to ...

Advanced Analogic Technologies, Inc., has introduced an integrated load switch that requires half the board footprint of discrete alternatives. In addition to its small size, the AAT4702 consumes a 15 ...
