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.
Variable dc power supply circuit diagram.
Below is the schematic for the dc power supply so that we can see how all the parts are connected and are brought together.
For smaller voltages we normally use batteries as a reliable source.
1 25v dc continuously variable 0 2amps.
0 30v variable power supply at 3a two resistors r1 and r2 limit the overload current.
A variable dc power supply is very important for electronics projects prototyping and hobbyists.
Instead of using batteries which have a limited lifetime a variable dc power supply can be used which is implemented in this project.
A lm317 is a versatile device which helps an electronic hobbyist to build a variable voltage power supply quickly cheaply and very efficiently.
Above are the parts needed to create a dc power supply.
0 50v 3a variable power supply circuit.
Dc power supply schematic diagram.
We ll now go over each part of this circuit and go over the role each component plays so that you can know how this circuit works.
Continuously variable short circuit and overload protected hum free stabilized output.
They work together with two transistors tr1 tr2.
When the current exceeded tr1 and tr2 will work.
A power supply can be given from the battery or from a hardware circuitry which converts the ac supply into the dc supply or step down ac to step up ac and vice versa.
