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.
Application
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.
FAQ about PMIC - Voltage Regulators - Linear

1. What are the disadvantages of linear regulators?
The disadvantage of linear regulators is that they are not efficient and can only be used in voltage reduction applications. The efficiency of a linear regulator depends on the ratio of output voltage to input voltage: turbidity = Vo: Vi. For example, for ordinary linear regulators, when the input voltage is 5V and the output voltage is 2.5V, the efficiency is only 50%. For ordinary linear regulators, about 50% of the electrical energy is converted into "heat" and lost, which is also the main reason why ordinary linear regulators are prone to heat when working. For LDO, due to its low voltage difference, the efficiency is much higher. For example, when the input voltage is 3.3V and the output voltage is 2.5V, its efficiency can reach 76%. Therefore, in LCD color TVs, in order to improve the utilization rate of electrical energy, ordinary linear regulators are used less, while LDOs are used more.

2. What problems will linear regulators bring to the circuit?
The problems that linear regulators bring to the circuit mainly include low efficiency and a lot of heat.
Linear The main working principle of the voltage regulator is to control the output voltage of the transistor through a current amplifier to keep the output voltage stable. This working mode causes the linear regulator to control the regulating tube through a differential voltage when adjusting the output voltage. The control tube needs to absorb part of the input voltage, which makes the efficiency of the linear regulator relatively low. In practical applications, this means that the linear regulator will convert the difference between the input voltage and the output voltage into heat energy, causing serious heating of the device, especially when the input and output voltage difference is large, this power loss will further increase, causing the device to heat up.
