voltage regulator

LT1528 LT1528 High current, Variable Voltage Regulator

TPS V-Reg TPS V-Regs These are 3.3V and 5V LDO, Low-Noise Voltage Regulators. Very small SOT-23 SMD package. 150mA max current. Best used in battery applications.

Main-LM7805.jpg Basic Voltage Regulators Variable voltage regulators, set output regulators, we give you the whole breakdown. Perfect for use with an external wall-wart power supply.

microcontroller

LPC2103 LPC2103 Low cost 70MHz ARM7TDMI-S FLASH microcontroller from Philips.

other

op amps: great for amplifying weak signals from sensors to a more useful level. Also used in filters, integrators, etc.
