What is the difference between a linear regulator and a switching regulator?

Use a linear regulator if power stability is required Linear regulator, called series regulator or shunt regulator, are mainly used when precise voltages are needed or when small power is needed, and when the unit price of the product has to be lowered. Linear regulator have very small electrical noise generation in a simple circuit … Read more

Why do electronic circuits need regulated power supply?

The electronic circuit operates on DC power All electronic devices require power supply through an AC 110V/220V voltage which is a commercial power system(or a battery) for the operation of the device. In addition, these electronic devices require stable power sources such as 3.3V, 5V, and 12V. Electronic devices supplied with power through commercial power … Read more
