Voltage regulators are ICs used to generate a stable and consistent voltage within a circuit. They take an input voltage and convert this into a fixed output voltage. Even if the input voltage changes, the regulator will continue to provide the same output. The voltage regulator will take the output voltage and compare it to a reference voltage. It will then adjust the pass device to help manage the output voltage. This helps to regulate the voltage throughout a circuit design, dependant on where the voltage regulator(s) are.

Voltage regulators are essential in electronic circuits that include components that require a particular voltage input. For example, a processor. The input voltage, output voltage and output current are all important things to consider when choosing a voltage regulator IC.

Voltage regulators cannot convert the voltage from AC to DC, for example. If you require voltage conversion to run in parallel to your voltage regulator, please see our range of Digital to Analogue Converters (DACs) or Analogue to Digital Converters (ADCs).

<p>A Linear Voltage Regulator ensures the output voltage from the circuit is maintained at a specific voltage. The device acts as a variable resistor, continuously adjusting to maintain a constant output voltage. The regulated voltage must be lower than the input voltage. Linear voltage regulators are step-down converters which means that the output voltage is lower that the input. Simple voltage regulator contains a Zener Diode and a resistor but more complicated versions include elements like a voltage reference and error amplifiers.</p><p>A more specific type of regulator are Low Dropout Voltage Regulators (LDO) which can regulate voltage even when the power supply voltage is very close to the supply voltage. They have low noise and good ripple rejection making them crucial to maintaining a stable power supply in any power-management system.</p>
