Reasons to use a voltage divider and regulator?


If I have a circuit that requires 2V, I can use a voltage divider to get me the 2V from the 3V battery. I have been told that it is a good idea then to run that through a 2V regulator. This seems like overkill to me.


Are there any advantages to this? Is it better to drop the divider and just use the regulator?

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
