3. A voltage regulator is designed to automatically maintain a constant
voltage level.
The voltage regulator is a circuit which will try to maintain the output
voltage constant under all the operating circumstances.
The output voltage changes if there is a change in input voltage or change in
load current or if the ambient temperature is changed.
It is applicable to the voltage regulator circuits as well.
Depending on the design, it may be used to regulate one or more AC or DC
voltages.
Introduction…
5. IC voltage regulator means integrated circuit voltage regulator. They
are basically series regulator with all the basic blocks present inside
integrated circuit. IC voltage regulators are easy to use and easy to
operate.
IC voltage regulators are three-terminal devices that provide a
constant DC output voltage that is independent of the input voltage,
output load current, and temperature.
IC Voltage Regulators…
6. Programmable outputs.
Facility to boost the voltage/current.
Internally provided short circuit current limiting.
In built Thermal shut down.
Floating operation to facilitate higher voltage output.
Versatility and low cost.
Important Features of IC Regulators…
9. The resistor R2 & R1 from the sampling network to produce the feed
back signal proportional to the output voltage.
Vref is internally generated voltage reference. This voltage reference is
compared with the feed back signal by the comparator, to produce the
control signal.
This control signal is routed through the thermal shut down and current
limiting block to the series pass transistor.
The thermal shut down and current limiting block provides the protection
increased internal temperature or over current.
If the internal temp. exceeds a predetermined value, then thermal shut down
block will not allow the control signal to pass through to the series pass
transistor.
This will turn off the chip automatically. The current limiting circuit protects
the regulator against over current.
10. The power supply design becomes easy and quick.
The IC regulator are cheap and are easily available.
IC regulators are small hence they reduce the size of the power supply.
They are easy to use.
IC regulators are versatile.
They have features such as programmable output, facility to boost the
Out put voltage or current, internal protection such as thermal shut
down, floating operation to facilitate out put voltage etc.
