Choose the Right Step-Up/Step-Down Voltage Regulator for Portable Applications

2022-10-04

Portable devices are frequently powered by a single cell Lithium-Ion battery. The voltage swing from high to low after a full day's use presents a challenge for the loads powered by the battery, especially when the load requires a stable input voltage in the middle of the Lithium-Ion range of operation. This tutorial discusses this challenge and provides an optimum solution.
