These AC to DC power supplies use a single chip to convert mains 220 V or 120 V input AC into 12 V or 5 V DC without depending on a transformer. Three simple yet efficient 220V single chip based solid state transformerless adjustable solid-state power supply circuits are discussed here. The first one works […]

Adjustable 3V, 5V, 6V, 9V,12V,15V Dual Power Supply Circuit
The purpose of this paper is to detail a variable dual lab power supply circuit which has an adjustable range from 3V, 5V, 6V, 9V, 12V, and 15V or even more at an output current rate of 1 amp. Written By: Dhrubajyoti Biswas The Dual Power Supply Concept In regard to positive volt it is […]
Adjustable CDI Spark Advance/Retard Circuit
In this post we’ll learn about a simple circuit which allows a manual adjust feature for the spark timing of a motorcycle’s CDI either to achieve an advance ignition, retarded ignition or simply a normal timed ignitions. After a comprehensive study regarding the subject I was apparently successful in designing this circuit which can be […]
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 […]
Adjustable 0-100V 50 Amp SMPS Circuit
The high power adjustable switching power supply is perfect for the purpose of laboratory work. The topology used to design the system is switching topology – half controlled bridge. Written and Submitted by: Dhrubajyoti Biswas Warning: The following circuit design works with a direct 220 V Mains AC without any isolation at the input side, […]
How to Make Adjustable Current Limiter Circuits
In many sensitive electronic circuits or loads, adjusting the current limit in its power supply could be one of the most crucial requirements for ensuring a fail proof safety for the various vulnerable devices. A simple method of sensing current this using resistors has been discussed in this article. Integrating a Current Sensor Stage The […]
