Shunt — 1) To move a body fluid, such as cerebrospinal fluid, from one place to another. 2) A catheter (tube) that carries cerebrospinal fluid from a ventricle in the brain to another area of the body. A shunt may be placed to relieve pressure from… … Medical dictionary
Voltage 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 … Wikipedia
Linear regulator — In electronics, a linear regulator is a voltage regulator based on an active device (such as a bipolar junction transistor, field effect transistor or vacuum tube) operating in its linear region (in contrast, a switching regulator is based on a… … Wikipedia
Voltage 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… … Wikipedia
Low Dropout Regulator — Spannungsregler sind Bauteile zum Regeln (Stabilisieren) von elektrischen Spannungen. Elektrische Verbraucher und elektronische Schaltungen benötigen in der Regel stabile, last und netzspannungsunabhängige Spannungen. Hierzu werden… … Deutsch Wikipedia
