0-40V Adjustable Power Supply Circuit Diagram
This multipurpose general purpose supply generates as much as 2.5 amps from zero to 20 volts or up to 1.25 amps from 0-40 volts. Current limiting is variable within the entire range for either output options. By Trupti Patil Power Supply Main Specifications: AN IDEAL POWER SUPPLY must provide a voltage that is variable within […]
0-300V Adjustable Transformerless Power Supply Circuit Diagram
This simple MOSFET controlled transformerless power supply circuit can be used for delivering a continuously variable 0 to 300V DC output and a current control from 100 mA to 1 Amp. To protect against my high voltage research projects from going up in smoke permanently, I developed an easy circuit which is able to render […]

How to Make Step Down Transformers
A step down transformer is a device which reduces a higher AC potential to a lower AC potential as per its winding ratio and specifications. In this article we are going to discuss how to design and construct a basic step down transformer which are typically applied in mains-operated power supplies. Introduction This will likely […]
Dummy Load Circuit for Testing Power Supplies and Amplifiers
In the following post I have explained two straightforward dummy load circuits: the first one can be used for testing high current power supplies, and the second design can be used for testing large power amplifiers. Suppose you have a 10 amp power supply and you want to confirm the 10 amp output through some […]
