Diodes Inc.’s AP7372 LDO regulator enables lower noise and ripple in noise-sensitive applications such as medical equipment ...

Diodes has announced the AP7372 low-noise low-dropout (LDO) regulator for powering precision components such as data ...

The voltage regulator is a simple switching device that keeps the alternator from overcharging the battery and, at the same time, helps keep the battery charged to 13-14 volts.

The voltage regulator makes sure the voltage stays in a range that will not overheat and destroy the battery. The alternator is typically driven by a belt and a pulley., Depositphotos ...

When your car is off, the voltage reading from the battery should be between 12.2 and 12.6 volts. If the voltage while the car isn't running is below 12.2, the battery needs to be charged.

Targeting use in portable-system applications that require raising a battery's voltage to a higher level, IC boost regulators often include output transistors that can drive storage inductors. However ...

The battery voltage is sensed using the potential divider R6 and R7. The reference to the comparator non-inverting pin (3) is generated from a +12-V power supply implemented using the IC2 (LM431) ...

For a 4.2 V LiIon cell, the useful voltage range is 4.1 V to 3.0 V – a cell at 4.2 V quickly drops to 4.1 V when you draw power from it, and at 3.0 V or lower, the cell’s internal resistance ...
