In this article I have explained how to build a highly efficient voltage regulator circuit using an SCR and some other external components. This SCR voltage regulator circuit being a switching kind of regulator is more efficient than the normal 3 pin voltage regulators, or the transistor zener based series pass regulators circuits. How the […]

5V 3 Amp Fixed Voltage Regulator Circuit using IC LM123
In this article I have explained the main specifications, datasheet and circuit application notes of the IC LM123, LM323 which are precision 5V, 3 amp fixed voltage regulator IC. These ICs can be used for generating highly regulated 5 V output with a an impressive 3 amp current output. The maximum input to the IC […]
Motorcycle Regulator, Rectifier Tester Circuit
The motorcycle regulator, rectifier tester circuit presented here can be used to test a 6-wire shunt type regulator-rectifiers for a 3-phase charging system of motorcycles. These reg./rectifiers (RR-units) are usually sealed with epoxy and it is considered difficult to find out if the unit is faulty or not. Designed and Written by: Abu-Hafss As the […]
