If you are looking for an option to replace conventional welding transformer, the welding inverter is the best choice. Welding inverter is handy and runs on DC current. The current control is maintained through potentiometer. By: Dhrubajyoti Biswas Using Two Switch Topology When developing a welding inverter, I applied forward inverter with two switches topology.

Ferrite Core Material Selection Guide for SMPS
In this post I have explained how to select ferrite core material with the correct specifications for ensuring proper compatibility with a given SMPS circuit design Why Ferrite Core Ferrite is a wonderful core substance for transformers, inverters and inductors in the frequency spectrum 20 kHz to 3 MHz, owing to the benefits of reduced […]
SMPS Voltage Stabilizer Circuit
In this article I have explained a solid state switch-mode mains voltage stabilizer circuit without relays, using a ferrite core boost converter and a couple of half-bridge mosfet driver circuits. The idea was requested by Mr. McAnthony Bernard. Technical Specifications Of late i started looking at voltage stabilizers use in house hold to regulate utility […]
How to Modify SMPS for Adjustable Current and Voltage Output
This article discusses a method through which any ready made SMPS can be converted into a variable current smps circuit using a few external jumper links. In one of the previous articles I have explained how to make a variable voltage SMPS circuit by employing a simple shunt regulators stage, in the present hack also […]
5V, 12V Buck Converter Circuit SMPS 220V
This step down buck converter will convert a 220V AC input from mains supply to 5V or 12V or 24V DC with 90% efficiency. The proposed buck converter is an SMPS circuit using the IC VIPer12A from STMicroelectronics. The circuit uses negligible number of external components yet is able to operate directly from mains AC input. The Buck […]
12 V to 30 V High Current Boost Converter Circuit [Variable]
In this post I have explained how to make a high current boost converter circuit which will step up a 12 V DC to any higher level up to 30 V maximum, and at an impressive 3 amp current rate. This high current output can be further enhanced by suitably upgrading the inductor wire gauge […]
