The post explains the technical specifications, datasheet, and application notes of the IC 78H12A which is a voltage regulator IC capable of providing a fixed regulated 12V output at maximum 5 amp current. 5 Amp Regulator Specifications We are familiar with the popular 78XX ICs such as the 7812 IC which can produce 12V fixed voltage at […]
110V Compact LED Tubelight Circuit
In this article I have explained a simple single IC LED tube ligt circuit applicable for 110V/120V AC inputs. The circuit uses 30 numbers of 1 watt LEDs, and also includes a voltage and current control features. In my previous post I discussed the IC TL783 which is a 1.25V to 120V variable DC regulator […]
Making a 10/12 watt LED Lamp with 12 V Adapter
In this post I have explained the construction of a homemade 10 watt LED lamp using ready made 12 V SMPS adapter. The project was successfully built by Mr. Debabrata Mandal. In many of previous posts I have discussed the use of 1 watt white LEDs for making high efficiency LED lamps for implementing in […]
