A linear or switching voltage regulator that can handle 10amp+

[crodan85]

Hello I am looking for some help trying to come up with a circuit for a variable voltage regulator that can handle more than 10amps at 0v to 12v .

Any help would be most appreciated.

Hi crodan,

Welcome to our forum.

Here are a few circuits that might work if slightly modified:

I hope at least one of them will be useful.

Thanks Ante I will probably give one a try.  I did see a schematic somewhere on the net that used a mosfet, tl431 Programmable Shunt Regulator, 3 caps, a variable resistor and some resistors but I cannot find it  >, and I was hoping that someone here might know of a link or a schematic.

Sorry crodan, I do not recognize the PSU you describe here.
