I need 6volts to supply about 0.700 watts.
My supply is 11.4 to 14.2 volts, I need to drive a small DC motor that operates on 6 volts and draws about 0.112 amps. Unless I am forgetting something, a voltage divider won't provide enough amps to drive the motor unless I use some 2 or 3 watt resistors, which I would rather not do.
Why is there not a single unit such as the 5volt 7805?
Seems that converting 12volts to 6 volts would be just as easy as going to 5 volts.
So whats the easiest way to get 6volts?
