This circuit is used to convert DC voltages like 9V and 12V to 5V, 500mA DC, which is suitable for embedded systems. Use of a linear regulator normally found in an AC-DC adaptor is not a good idea, ...

For instance, a 5V linear regulator circuit for an Arduino microcontroller uses a 7805 IC and two capacitors. A 12V switching regulator circuit for a LED strip requires a LM2576 IC, an inductor, a ...

After completing a comprehensive PCB Design Course provided by Altium, we have been assigned a project to apply and test our skills in practical PCB Design. For this project, we will be creating a ...

A power management unit to power a hybrid CPU wireless sensor system is first designed and simulated using LTSpice. Multiple operation modes and adaptive loading are simulated and studied. Transient ...

The ZXTR2105FQ is targeted at applications that require a 5V ±5% regulated supply from a 12V battery, e.g., for a stable MCU supply within the required 4.7V to 5.3V supply range. The ZXTR2112FQ is ...

The R-78E series continues to be a reliable and affordable switching regulator without ever compromising its performance. With efficiency as high as 91%, parts are available with 3.3V, 5V and now, the ...
