Linear Vs. Switching Regulators
Linear RegulatorsLinear regulators are a great choice for powering very low powered devices or applications where the difference between the input and output is small. Even though they are easy to use, simple and cheap, a linear regulator is normally inefficient.Switching RegulatorsSwitching regulators on the other hand are highly efficient and available as modular chips which are compact and reliable. Switching regulators can be further divided into isolated and non-isolated.
