    Help with a simple lm317 circuit

    Thank you very much.  Like I said, I know just enough to get myself into trouble :)   Will take your advice, and set it up with the appropriate resistors, and capacitors.  I'm sure that will make a significant difference.

    Help with a simple lm317 circuit

    Hmmm . . . capacitors, well, there could be my problem.  I'll draw a schematic and scan it in the morning, but the way it is assembled is simply the 12v into the LM317, and then the two resistors.  One from Vout to ADJ, and the other from ADJ to ground. R1 (Vout to ADJ)  is 236 Ohms.  R2 (ADJ to...

    Help with a simple lm317 circuit

    I have lots of interests, and play around with many different things.  Mechanics, sewing, art, music, plumbing, you name it.  I have long had an interest in electronics, and have fiddled about some.  I have a basic understanding of what I am doing, but it is indeed basic. I have a Christmas...
