constant-voltage regulator
1constant voltage regulator — (CVR) a device used to maintain a constant voltage level in a circuit, despite fluctuations in system voltage. CVRs are wired into some gauge circuits so voltage fluctuations won t affect accuracy of the gauge readings …
2Constant current regulator — A Constant current regulator is a circuit that regulates current delivery, limiting it to a constant value. These are used with long tail pairs, series lighting strings, some LED lighting, and some other applications.Some IC (integrated circuit)… …
3Voltage regulator — A popular three pin 12 V DC voltage regulator IC. A voltage regulator is an electrical regulator designed to automatically maintain a constant voltage level. A voltage regulator may be a simple feed forward design or may include negative feedback …
4Voltage regulator tube — A voltage regulator tube (VR tube) is an electronic component used as a shunt regulator to hold a voltage constant at a pre determined level.Physically, these devices resemble vacuum tubes, but there are two main differences: * Their glass… …
5Voltage regulator module — A voltage regulator module or VRM, sometimes called PPM (power processing module) is an electronic device that provides a microprocessor the appropriate supply voltage. It can be soldered to the motherboard or be an installable device. It allows… …
6voltage regulator — /ˈvɒltɪdʒ ˌrɛgjəleɪtə/ (say voltij .regyuhlaytuh) noun an electronic device used to give a constant voltage over a range of electrical currents …
7Voltage regulator — A&V A circuit used for controlling and maintaining a voltage at a constant level …
8Voltage stabilizer — Unreferenced|date=July 2008A voltage stabilizer is an electronic device able to deliver relatively constant output voltage while input voltage and load current changes over time. The output voltage is usually regulated using a transistor. In a… …
9Voltage reference — A voltage reference is an electronic device (circuit or component) that produces a fixed (constant) voltage irrespective of the loading on the device, power supply variation and temperature. It is also known as a voltage source , but in the… …
10Regulator (automatic control) — In automatic control, a regulator is a device which has the function of maintaining a designated characteristic. It performs the activity of managing or maintaining a range of values in a machine. The measurable property of a device is managed… …
