Voltage regulator IC’s, with 3 pins, from LM7805 and LM7812 series are excellent for usage in voltage regulator circuits. If you need higher currents, up to 3 A, you must add a complementary ...

A recent Design Idea, “Three discretes suffice to interface PWM to switching regulators,” demonstrated one way to use PWM to control the output of a typical switching voltage regulator. There were ...

The aim: Create a 3.3V source from a –5V supply. You can obtain a precise, positive-output voltage from a negative-voltage supply with a boost converter and a linear regulator. The input and output ...
