  2. Voltage regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_regulator

    An integrated circuit voltage regulator. A voltage regulator is a system designed to automatically maintain a constant voltage. It may use a simple feed-forward design or may include negative feedback. It may use an electromechanical mechanism, or electronic components. Depending on the design, it may be used to regulate one or more AC or DC ...

    Diagram of a typical XT and AT voltage regulator circuit Internals of a PSU with passive PFC (left) and active PFC (right) The desktop computer power supply converts the alternating current (AC) from a wall socket of mains electricity to a low-voltage direct current (DC) to operate the motherboard, processor and peripheral devices.

  5. 78xx - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/78xx

    The 78xx line are positive voltage regulators: they produce a voltage that is positive relative to a common ground. There is a related line of 79xx devices which are complementary negative voltage regulators. 78xx and 79xx ICs can be used in combination to provide positive and negative supply voltages in the same circuit.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 555 timer IC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/555_timer_IC

    For the "I q" column, a 5-volt supply was chosen as a common voltage to make it easier to compare. The value for Signetics NE558 is an estimate because NE558 datasheets don't state I q at 5 V. [ 2 ] The value listed in this table was estimated by comparing the 5 V to 15 V ratio of other bipolar datasheets, then derating the 15 V parameter for ...

  9. TL431 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TL431

    Closed-loop regulator circuits using the TL431 are always designed to operate in high transconductance mode, with I CA no less than 1 mA (point D on the current-voltage curve). [8] [7] [2] For better control loop stability, optimal I CA should be set at around 5 mA, although this may compromise overall efficiency. [30] [7]
