This circuit is commonly called a negative buck regulator. This regulator can invert and step up or step down the input voltage. As shown in Figure 2, efficiency is greater than 82% throughout the ...

The IXD1201 is a precise positive voltage regulator with low power consumption, manufactured using CMOS technology. Laser trimming guarantees ±1% precision of the output voltage above 2 V. The ...

Using a “trick,” a switching or linear regulator can generate lower voltages than the feedback voltage. It requires another positive supply voltage connected to the resistive divider to adjust the ...

It’s become a matter of debate as to precisely when the 78xx series of linear regulators were designed or when they hit the market for that matter. Some will tell you their lineage can be traced back ...
