MOSFET shunt regulator substitutes for series regulator - 25-Nov-04 EDN Design Ideas: 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 by Stuart R Michaels, SRM Consulting
MOSFET switch provides efficient AC/DC conversion - 02/17/00 EDN Design Ideas: Occasionally, you have access to a transformer for powering a dc circuit, but its output voltage is much higher than that required for the dc voltage. The full-wave-rectified and filtered output of an ac input voltage V X , is V DC =1.414V X-2V F , where V F is the forward drop in the rectifier (approximately 0.7V).
