LDO Regulator

Selecting the Right Ultra-Low Quiescent-Current LDO Regulator

Electronics News Updates / By

The use of low-dropout regulators, popularly known as LDOs, is common in many applications today because they provide a simple and inexpensive way to regulate an output voltage that is stepped-down from a higher input voltage. In addition, linear LDO voltage regulators contribute very-low noise as compared to switching regulators. Nonetheless, to keep system power

Color sensor achieves high dynamic range with auto exposure

Color sensor achieves high dynamic range with auto exposure

Electronics News Updates / By

The Design Idea in Figure 1 is a color detector capable of generating an RGB triplet over a high dynamic range, a useful attribute for machine vision applications. The circuit implements auto-exposure control to achieve this. Thus, RGB values for a subject are invariant over a range of light intensity. The three common-cathode RGB photodiodes

Circuit provides constant-current load for testing batteries

Electronics News Updates / By

Suppose that you need to test a 1.5V, AA-size alkaline battery. You can apply a short circuit and measure current, or you can measure open-circuit voltage, but neither method properly tests the battery. A suitable test current of approximately 250 mA gives you a more reasonable test. You can use a 6Ω resistive load at
