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 […]
Single Phase Variable Frequency Drive VFD Circuit
In this post I have explained a single phase variable frequency drive circuit or a VFD circuit for controlling AC motor sped without affecting their operational specifications. What is a VFD Motors and other similar inductive loads specifically do not “like” operating with frequencies that might be not within their manufacturing specs, and tend to […]
100 amp Variable Voltage Power Supply Circuit Diagram
The post describes a simple but extremely versatile 100 amp, variable voltage power supply circuit using just a few BJTs in parallel and in a common collector mode. The idea was requested by Mr. Andre. Technical Specifications Hello Swagatam, I was wondering if you could possibly assist me. on the blogs I have seen some […]
0-60V LM317HV Variable Power Supply Circuit Diagram
The high voltage LM317HV series of ICs will allow to go beyond the traditional voltage limits of an LM317 IC and enable controlling supplies that may be as high as 60V. 0-60V Regulation with a Single IC LM317 Therefore now you can build a universal 0-60V regulated power supply circuit loaded with all the essential […]
How to Use LM317 for Making a Variable Power Supply Circuit
In this post I will elaborately explain how to build a simple LM317 based adjustable power supply circuit using minimum number of external components. As the name suggests a variable power supply circuit provides the user with a range of linearly varying output voltages through a manually controlled potentiometer rotation. A LM317 is a versatile […]
