  2. Voltage-regulator tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage-regulator_tube

    Some voltage-regulator tubes contained small amounts of radionuclides to produce a more reliable ionization. [1] The Corona VR tube is a high-voltage version that is filled with hydrogen at close to atmospheric pressure, and is designed for voltages ranging from 400 V to 30 kV at tens of microamperes.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GE_Automation_&_Controls

    In 1986, GE Fanuc Automation Corporation was jointly established in the US by FANUC and General Electric (GE). Under the joint venture company, three operating companies, GE Fanuc Automation North America, Inc., in the U.S., GE Fanuc Automation Europe S.A. in Luxembourg, and Fanuc GE Automation Asia Ltd. in Japan were established (the Asian company was established in 1987).

  5. Voltage regulator module - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_regulator_module

    A voltage regulator module (VRM), sometimes called processor power module (PPM), is a buck converter that provides the microprocessor and chipset the appropriate supply voltage, converting +3.3 V, +5 V or +12 V to lower voltages required by the devices, allowing devices with different supply voltages be mounted on the same motherboard.

  6. LM317 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LM317

    As linear regulators, the LM317 and LM337 are used in DC to DC converter applications. Linear regulators inherently waste power; the power dissipated is the current passed multiplied by the voltage difference between input and output. A LM317 commonly requires a heat sink to prevent the operating temperature from rising too high. For large ...

  7. Voltage regulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_regulation

    voltage regulators, which are essentially transformers with tap changers to adjust the voltage along the feeder, so as to compensate for the voltage drop over distance; and; capacitors, which reduce the voltage drop along the feeder by reducing current flow to loads consuming reactive power.

  8. Low-dropout regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-dropout_regulator

    Low-dropout (LDO) regulators operate similarly to all linear voltage regulators.The main difference between LDO and non-LDO regulators is their schematic topology.Instead of an emitter follower topology, low-dropout regulators consist of an open collector or open drain topology, where the transistor may be easily driven into saturation with the voltages available to the regulator.

  9. Regulated power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulated_power_supply

    Modern regulated supplies mostly use a transformer, silicon diode bridge rectifier, reservoir capacitor and voltage regulator IC. There are variations on this theme, such as supplies with multiple voltage lines, variable regulators, power control lines, discrete circuits and so on. Switched mode regulator supplies also include an inductor.
