I’m working on a project with the LPC1768, and I’m running into a bit of a confusion regarding voltage regulators. I need to power the board from a 12V source, but I want to make sure I’m using the right regulator to step down the voltage without introducing noise or instability.
Could anyone recommend the best type of voltage regulator for this kind of setup? Should I go with a linear regulator like the LM7805, or would a switching regulator be better for efficiency, especially if I’m running multiple peripherals?
Also, if anyone has advice on how to handle noise suppression or best practices for selecting a regulator that won’t affect the performance of the LPC1768, that would be super helpful!
Thanks in advance for any tips or insights!
