I want to make a power regulator for all my microcontroller projects, so i can program and run them off the breadboard initially. I know that it needs to be 5V.
The power adapters that I can buy at my local electronic hobby store, are they regulated or not?I'm guessing they just have a step down transformer right? So do I need a power reguulator IC (like a LM series) and then use resistors to get the voltage I need?
