i need some help converting 12v to 1 volt dc/dc. my source is a 12v lead acid battery 32A-h. i will be powering a dc motor that eats up 2A at 12V.
i need to pull down its voltage to 1v so that it only eats up 0.5-0.8A of current. we already tested the motor on a power supply and it moves at 1v with the speed i preferred. my problem is making the circuit. do you guys know how this circuit should look like, or have some samples that i can use?

Thank you all. I'll try your solutions.
 

It is better to use DC/DC. (12V-1V)*2A=22W. It should be huge power consumed by linear regulator.
