| We use a 6 V lead-acid battery as our source of energy, and a Luxeon 3 W LED as our light source. VCC therefore lies between a minimum of ar...
| The PTN78060 is a series of high-efficiency, buck-boost, integrated switching regulators (ISR) from good old Texas Instruments (TI). The cas...
| The devices described here are tailored to fit the needs of modern DSPs, processors and FPGAs that require low supply voltages at relatively...
| The circuit shown here uses a depletion-mode MOSFET to implement the Low Dropout (LDO) function.
| There are many circuits for low voltage regulators. For higher voltages, such as supplies for valve circuits, the situation is different. Th...
| This ’bulletproof’ electronic regulator was originally designed to replace the troublesome original electromechanical regulator on the autho...
| The circuit uses the familiar LM2575 step-down regulator from National Semiconductor. This circuit converts a positive-voltage step-down reg...
| This small but very effective circuit protects a lead-acid battery (12-V solar battery or car battery) against overcharging by a solar modul...
| This circuit was developed to power an AVR microcontroller from a 12 V lead-acid battery. The regulator itself draws only 14 ?A. Of course,...
