Modern-day graphics processing units (GPUs) and other AI chips are massive. The unfortunate tradeoff is that they also consume an enormous amount of power, and their power needs are rising ...
Many voltage regulators are of the fixed output variety and include the voltage divider internal to the regulator. There are definite advantages to this approach, which allows active voltage trimming ...
Today in power electronics, the folks over at Texas Instruments have put together a video covering low-dropout (LDO) linear regulators. For a hacker, power is pretty fundamental, so it behooves us to ...
People often forget that many voltage regulator ICs have an upper limit (usually 35 V) on the input voltage they can handle. That applies primarily to types with a fixed output voltage. Adjustable ...
Monolithic, or integrated, linear voltage regulators make it possible to build a stable power supply with a small number of parts, saving both time and space. Additionally, a lot of the modern devices ...
ABLIC, the analogue IC subsidiary of MinebeaMitsumi, has launched a series of automotive step-down switching regulators. The S-19954/5 series is a step-down switching regulator which operates at 5.5V ...
I have a universal PSU with a variety of tips and voltage that can be dialed in from 3V to 24V. The knob is not super easy to dial in though to get a precise value. However, once I set a value, the ...
