LDO Regulators: An Unexpected Option for Industrial/IoT Applications (.PDF Download)

Oct. 28, 2016

The power supply for new products is often taken for granted. However, judging from recent experience, it’s clear that the power supply for new industrial equipment or Internet of Things (IoT) products is a major factor in product success and reliability. 

One unexpected realization gleaned from the latest designs is that the often-neglected low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator can go a long way to help designers meet the stringent needs of such products.  Whether your new power-supply design operates from the ac line or batteries, the LDO may just be the solution you are seeking...
