The Art of Electronics, on regulators. Chapter 5 probably made most of an impression on the late-teenage me, because it explains voltage regulation and power supplies both linear and switching.

the 78-series and 79-series of fixed voltage regulators. In the above plot the pink trace is the output noise spectrum of our 12V LM317 power supply, and the blue trace is that of the LM337 negative ...

What is a voltage regulator, and how does it work? A voltage regulator is a component of the power supply unit that maintains a constant voltage supply through all operational conditions. Voltage ...

Linear voltage regulators are key components in any power-management system that requires a stable and ripple-free power supply. A subset of linear voltage regulators is a class of circuits known as ...

Abstract: The intermediate dc bus voltage in modern data center backend power supply is evolving from conventional 12 V to 48 V. It still requires the voltage regulator modules (VRM) to feed the ...

In this third part we have a quick look at how a regulator succeeds in suppressing any AC signals that are riding on its raw voltage supply input: power supply rejection or ripple rejection. Ripple ...
