    0-30V Stabilized Power Supply

    Hey guys, first off my son spilled something on my laptop and my keyboard hates me now so I apologize if my grammar/puncuation/spelling is crap, I will do my best. I have just about finished the PCB, I used two thin single PCB's and made a dspcb, and since I am using a dremel to do everything...

    0-30V Stabilized Power Supply

    Ok. I just ordered everything off newark (xcept xfr) for just over 20$. Actually, I got 3 of almost everything just in case. I ordered 3 power transistors in case I build the 5amp. I decided not to be cheap and bought some Aavid heatsinks with a thermal resistance of 4 degrees/w. Ok that was a...

    Thank you Audioguru. I am going to build the 5amp that... Redwire? built... I am going to try to use the exact parts he used to try and avoid the endless troubleshooting. Another bonus is that since we are both using microwave transformers I might luck out and have a near identical power source...

I got one and stripped it, the signal wires even have ring terminals already attached to them which you can connect to the back of your output terminals. The only thing you need is a 9v supply (which...

What are the key points to consider for the op-amp if I decide to use a different one? I have several lm's and others laying around, as well as a bunch of tl081's I bought to make...

    0-30V Stabilized Power Supply

    Ok, I have been following this and waiting for a transformer to build this since last year, and the other day I finally ran across a microwave and decided to try my hand at rewinding it (thanx to... Audioguru? Whoever it was that did this for the idea). Well, after a couple of failed attempts...
