The project presented here is a dual output linear power supply. This power supply provides low ripple low noise DC regulated output. It is a very useful tool to power Audio, Video, OPAMP-based circuits, and projects. The circuit provides regulated +/-12V DC output @ 400mA + 400mA. The project supports AC input supply 230V or 115V. On-board jumpers are provided for AC230V or AC115V selection. Besides regulated output, the board also has provisions to output the unregulated supply using CN2.

Parts Explanation

  • Connector CN1: 230V/115V AC Input
  • Jumper J2:  230V Selection
  • Jumper J1, J3: 115V Selection
  • Transformer-Step Down T1: 230/115V AC IN, 12VAC-0V-12VAC 0.83A
  • Bridge Rectifier BR1: Bridge Rectifier
  • Capacitor C2, C5: DC Filter Capacitors
  • Connector CN2: Unregulated DC Output
  • Regulator U1: +12V Regulator
  • Regulator U2: -12V Regulator
  • C1,C3,C4, C6 : DC Filter Capacitors
  • LED D1: +12V LED
  • LED D2: -12V LED
  • Connector CN3, and CN4: +/-12V Regulated Output
  • Resistor R1, R2: Current Limiting Resistors for LEDs
Note1: This power supply supports 230V AC or 115V AC input, remove input power cable while changing Jumper selection.
Note 2: This power supply contains hazardous voltage at the input, PCB must be installed in an encloser that prevents accidental contact. Use Plastic screws to mount the power supply.
Note 3: Power supply also can be used as Dual Regulated +/-15V DC Output. In this case replace U1 LM7815, U2 LM7915

Note 4: Heatsink is a must for regulators U1 and U2 @ full load. The heatsink should be mounted with plastic screws and should not touch the ground plane of the PCB.

Input Voltage Selection

  • For 230V AC Input: Close Jumper J2 Jumper J1 and J3 Open,
  • For 115V AC Input: Close Jumper J1 and J3 Open Jumper J2
