| Any voltage regulator typically has a series pass element. The selection of pass element will depend on the current it is supposed to carry. For lower currents, the series pass element can be a transistor but for higher currents it has to be darlington pairs. For higher current regulators, the drop-out voltage of the series pass element also increases which produces heat and power dissipation. This training shows innovative techniques to scale the output current keeping constant output voltage. |
