How do I choose the right voltage regulator for my application?

Input voltage and output voltage: You should know the input voltage range and the required output voltage that you will be working with. Each voltage regulator chip is designed to be used for a specific output voltage. Dropout voltage: Dropout is the minimum buffer between the output and input voltages. The dropout voltage of a regulator is the minimum difference between the input and output voltages required for the regulator to maintain its specified output voltage.
