3A Switching Power Supply Regulator

This is the circuit diagram of 3A switching power supply regulator: Simple and cheap, the circuit built based on well-known IC regulator LM317 with current booster of power transistor 2N3782. Don’t forget to add heatsink especially for power transistor 2N3782.

16W Bridge Amplifier using LM383

The following diagram is 16W audio amplifier circuit. The circuit built based 2 pieces of power IC  LM383 in bridge connection, so this amplifier is an bridge amplifier. This is an old amplifier, LM383 is discontinued, so this LM383 might be difficult to find. You can use ECG1232, TDA2002 or TDA2003 as the replace for… Read More »

5 Band Graphic Equaliser

This is the design diagram of 5 band graphic equaliser circuit build using operational amplifier chips, the NE5532 or LM833. The op-amp ICs is a good choice because of inexpensive and comes with fairly good quality output. Each IC contains dual op-amps circuit, so you will need 4 ICs of NE5532 or LM833 to build… Read More »

Telephone Amplifier using LM386

The following diagram is the circuit diagram of telephone amplifier, build based small amplifier IC LM386. This is a easy build telephone amplifier There is no extra electrical power supply required to power up the telephone amplifier circuit, as it draws power from the telephone line itself. The amplifier will supply fairly very good volume… Read More »

Current Output Multiplier for 78xx Regulator

This is the circuit diagram of current output multiplier designed for regulator IC LM78xx. By default, the regulator ID 78xx series will give maximum current output 1A – 1.5A. To increase the current output of this regulator, you may consider to build this circuit. The circuit is simple, easy built and inexpensive. Parts list: R1,… Read More »

Basic Dual Polarity Power Supply

This is a very basic dual polarity power supply circuit diagram, it also called symmetrical power supply or split power supply. Basically, it just need the following components: A Center Tapped Transformer Diode rectifier 4 units (or diode bridge 1 unit) Electrolityc capacitor 4 units
