Design of IC Voltage Regulators — Study Resources & PYQs
Design considerations and practical circuits using regulator ICs.
- Estimated study time: 60 minutes
Study resources
- Linear regulator (Wikipedia) (Article) — Describes series-pass (and, by contrast, shunt) linear regulator designs, the basic block diagram of a regulator, and the design trade-offs (dropout voltage, efficiency, power dissipation) involved.
- Voltage regulator (Wikipedia) (Article) — Explains why an unregulated DC supply's output varies with load and input-line changes, and how a voltage regulator holds the output steady, including series and shunt regulator topologies.
