13.8V 2A Power Supply using LM338
https://www.electronics-lab.com/project/13-8v-2a-power-supply-using-lm338/
Introduction This power supply appeared in the summer issue of Elektor 2000 without a PCB layout. So, I decided to build a PCB using Cadsoft EAGLE Lite edition following the Elektor’s schematic and introducing some changes. The power supply uses through-hole parts which are easy to find on market. Main part is LM338 Regulator which […]
