Voltage Regulators-Linear is an electronic device used to convert an unstable DC voltage into a stable DC voltage. It regulates the voltage through an active component (such as a transistor or field effect tube) and a feedback network to ensure that the output voltage remains constant within a certain range. Linear regulators usually operate under low input voltage changes and load changes, and are able to provide a very clean and smooth output voltage.

Voltage Regulators-Linear has a wide range of applications, covering almost all electronic devices requiring a stable DC power supply. In the field of consumer electronics, linear voltage regulators are widely used in mobile phones, tablets, laptops and other portable devices to provide stable voltage support for core components such as processors, memory and display screens. In the field of industrial automation and instrumentation, linear voltage regulators are often used in precision measuring instruments, sensor signal processing and other occasions because of their low noise and high precision characteristics. In addition, linear regulators also play an indispensable role in areas such as medical equipment, aerospace, and automotive electronics, where the quality of the power supply is extremely high. For example, in medical equipment, linear regulators ensure the power stability of devices such as pacemakers and monitors, ensuring the safety of patients.

• 1. Do linear regulators need capacitors?

  Linear regulators usually require capacitors.
  The working principle and design requirements of linear regulators determine that they usually require capacitors to ensure stable operation. These capacitors are mainly used to filter and stabilize the output voltage, help reduce output ripple and noise, and thus improve the stability and reliability of the power supply.
  Specifically:
  1. Input and output capacitors: Linear regulators usually require one or more input capacitors and one output capacitor. These capacitors help smooth the input and output voltages, reduce voltage fluctuations, and thus provide a stable output voltage.
  2. Power supply rejection capability: The power supply rejection capability of a linear regulator is an important indicator, which is related to whether it can effectively suppress unwanted signals and avoid interference with the output voltage. If the power supply rejection capability is poor, unnecessary signals may be left behind, affecting the purity of

• 2. Which is better, switching power supply or linear regulator?

  Switching power supply and linear regulator each have their advantages and disadvantages, and choosing which one is better depends on the specific application requirements.
  The main advantages of switching power supply include:
  High efficiency: The conversion efficiency of switching power supply can reach 90%~95%, which is much higher than the 30% or so of linear regulator.
  Small size and light weight: Due to the high efficiency and high-efficiency transformer of switching power supply, large heat sink can be omitted, and high-frequency transformer replaces power frequency transformer, greatly reducing volume and weight.
  Wide voltage regulation range: The output voltage of switching power supply can compensate for the change of input voltage by adjusting the duty cycle to ensure stable output voltage.
  Various circuit forms: Designers can design switching power supplies that meet the needs according to different application scenarios.
  However, switching power supplies also have so

• 3. How to choose a linear regulator?

  1. Switching regulator: A switching regulator uses an output stage that repeatedly switches between "on" and "off" states to generate an output voltage together with an energy storage component. Its adjustment is achieved by adjusting the switching timing based on the feedback sample of the output voltage. In a fixed-frequency regulator, the switching timing is adjusted by adjusting the pulse width of the switching voltage, which is called PWM control.
  2. Parameter regulator: LDO is a linear regulator. Linear regulators use transistors or FETs operating in their linear region to subtract excess voltage from the applied input voltage to produce a regulated output voltage. This transistor allows saturation, so the regulator can have a very low dropout voltage, usually around 200mV.
  3. Regulators for laser cutting machines: According to the use requirements of high-power laser cutting machines and the current power supply situation in my country, regulators that meet
