MOSFET
LDO Voltage Regulator - This circuit has excellent voltage regulation, due to
positive feedback through R2 however the circuit must be started up. This is done by
Q4 and Q5. If the circuit does not need to be started under load, Q4, Q5, and R6 can
be deleted. You must then place a 1 meg resistor between the source and drain of Q1.
C2 slightly speeds response to rapid load changes and can be changed in value or deleted.

MOSFET shunt regulator substitutes for series regulator - 25-Nov-04 Issue of EDN
You would normally use a series linear regulator or a dc/dc converter to obtain 3V dc from
a higher supply. However, when breadboarding a concept, you may be able to use a shunt
regulator, especially if a series regulator of the correct voltage is unavailable. The
MOSFET in Figure 1 can replace a zener diode in a shunt regulator and provide lower output
impedance than a zener diode.... [Design Idea by Stuart R Michaels, SRM Consulting] |

Negative Flyback with V in 12 V & V out-5 V - This reference design is for a
-12V at 1A Negative Flyback Converter. The UC3572 converts a positive input voltage to a
regulated negative output voltage. The chip is optimized for use in a single inductor
negative flyback switching converter employing an external PMOS switch. (added 3/05)

Obtain higher voltage from a buck regulator - 29-May-03 Issue of EDN
Several semiconductor vendors'current-mode buck controllers have input-voltage ranges of
30 to 36V but have output-voltage ranges from the reference voltage to approximately 6V.
This output-voltage constraint arises from the common-mode-voltage limitation of the
current-sense amplifier. In real-world applications, the power-supply designer must be
able to generate high output voltage for printe.... [Design Idea by Ajmal Godil] |

Positive regulator makes dual negative output converter - 26-Jun-03 Issue of EDN
Some systems, such as optical networks, requirethan one negative voltage. A common
procedure is to boost the main negative supply of -5V to -10V and then reduce it with a
linear regulator to -9V. The -5V itself comes from a positive supply, typically 5 or 12V.
Independently creating each of the two negative voltages requires the use of two
switching-regulator ICs.... [Design Idea by Keith Szolusha, Linear Technology Corp,

Positive regulator makes negative dc/dc converter - 26-Dec-02 Issue of EDN
Power-supply designers can choose from a plethora of available positive buck regulators
that can also serve as negative boost dc/dc converters. Some buck regulators have a
negative-feedback reference voltage expressly for this purpose, but ICs that have
positive-reference feedback voltages far outnumber these negative-feedback regulators....
