12V 5 Amp Fixed Voltage Regulator IC 78H12A Datasheet
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 […]
IC LM7912, -12V Negative Voltage Regulator Explained
In this post we are going to learn about one super old but gold IC called LM7912 or simply IC 7912. This one is not positive regulator like 7805 or 7812, but it is negative regulator which means it gives -12V output and not +12V. If you are making op-amp circuits or dual power supply […]
12V Battery Charger Circuits [using LM317, LM338, L200, Transistors]
In this article I will be discussing a list of simple 12V battery charger circuits which are very easy and cheap by its design yet extremely accurate with its output voltage and current specs. All the designs presented here are current controlled meaning their outputs will never go beyond a predetermined fixed current level. UPDATE: […]
3v, 4.5v, 6v, 9v, 12v, 24v, Automatic Battery Charger Circuit with Indicator
An all-in-one automatic voltage battery charger circuit is discussed in the following post; the circuit can be modified in many different ways as per individual requirements and applications. The following circuit will allow you to charge any battery right from 1.5V to 24V simply by setting up a given preset. How it Works using LM3915 […]
12V, 5 Amp SMPS Battery Charger Circuit
In this article we study a simple flyback based converter design which is implemented as an SMPS 12V, 5amp battery charger power supply, without using a iron core transformer. How it Works The proposed 12V, 5 amp smps battery charger circuit employs a flyback converter topology which results in the required smps based high current, […]
