Here the variable desktop power supply which will convert a high input voltage (12V) from the SMPS / PSU of a desktop computer into small output voltage (1.25 to 9 volts). This converter will be very beneficial for electronics hobbyists. An adjustable three-pin voltage regulator chip LM317T (IC1) is applied right here to deliver the desired voltages. The LM317T regulator, in TO-220 pack, could deal with current of approximately 1 [...]
This is definitely an effective 4-output stage stabilized DC power supply unit for testing electronic circuits. It delivers very well regulated and stabilised output, that is important for most electronic circuits to provide good results. The circuit gives you an audio-visual indication if there is a short circuit in the PCB under test, so the power supply to the circuit ‘under test’ could be cut-off instantly to protect the important [...]
This is the circuit diagram of 5V Regulated Power Supply circuit, featured with over voltage protection. The circuit is based regulator chip 7805; Thyristor SCR 2N1595 and Dioda Zener 1N3997 for overvoltage protection circuit. The 5V regulated power supply is apply 74LS series integrated circuits which has to be really precise and tolerant of voltage transients. These IC’s are simply damaged by brief voltage spikes. A fuse will blow when [...]
Powered with solar panel, the circuit will give you 5V pure regulated DC voltage. The circuit is made up of an oscillator transistor as well as a regulator transistor. The solar panel charges the battery when sunlight is bright enough to generate a voltage above 1.9v. A diode is necessary between the panel and also the battery as it leaks about 1mA from the battery when it really is not [...]
