The main technical function of the proposed voltage regulator is voltage stabilization. It is capable of stabilizing an input voltage ranging from 0 to 600 Vdc to an output voltage ranging from 100 to 560 Vdc, with a maximum current of 800 mAdc and maximum power dissipation of 100 W. The unit also exhibits good […]

Connecting Voltage Regulators 78XX in Parallel for High Current
In this post we investigate how to connect popular voltage regulator ICs such as 7812, 7805 in parallel for acquiring high current output from the ICs. Voltage regulator chips mostly have their maximum current output specs fixed to some predetermined levels. Increasing them to a higher level would normally call for external out board transistors […]
High Voltage Meter Circuit [for Measuring 10kV]
In this article I have explained a simple high voltage meter circuit which can be used for measuring extremely high voltages in the order of many 1000s of volts. The circuit can be used to measure high voltages from CDI units, Automobile spark plugs, high voltage generators, mosquito bat circuits, fence chargers, room ionizer circuits […]

High Voltage, High Current DC Regulator Circuit
We all are pretty familiar with the 78XX voltage regulator ICs or the adjustable types such as LM317, LM338 etc. Though these regulators are outstanding with their specified functioning and reliability, these regulators have one big disadvantage…. they won’t control anything above 35V. Circuit Operation The circuit presented in the following article introduces a DC […]
Inverter Voltage Drop Issue – How to Solve
Whenever PWM is employed in an inverter for enabling a sine wave output, inverter voltage drop becomes a major issue, especially if the parameters are not calculated correctly. In this website you might have come across many sine wave and pure sine wave inverter concepts using PWM feeds or SPWM integrations. Although the concept works […]
