Simple Split Rail Power Supply based LM380

Published:2013/3/21 3:50:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Simple Split Rail, Power Supply

This split power supply circuit uses the of the popular LM380 audio power amplifier chip. The device is internally biased so that without having any input the output is held midway between the supply rails. R1, that will be initially set to mid-travel, is used to nullify any inbalance in the output. Regulation of Vout depends upon the circuit feeding the LM380, but negative and positive outputs will track accurately irrespective of input regulation and unbalanced loads. The free air dissipation slightly more than 1 watt, and so will require extra cooling. The device is fully protected and will shut-down if its rated dissipation is exceeded. Current limiting occurs when the output current is higher than 1.3 A. The split power supply input voltage should never exceed 20 V.   (View)

Fast Response Power Supply Protection

Published:2013/3/20 1:57:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Fast Response, Power Supply Protection

This Fast response power supply protection circuit is used to protect regulated power supply from the risks of undervoltage and overvoltage condition. When working with a regulated power supply to reduce a supply voltage, there’s always the risk that component failure in the power supply may cause a severe overvoltage condition through the load. To deal with overvoltage conditions, the Fast response power supply protection circuit is designed to protect the load underovervoltage conditions. Component values given are for a 20 V supply with regulated output at 12V. The zener diode can be changed-according to any voltage is to be the maximum. When the voltage at the regulator output goes up to 13 V or higher, the zener diode breaks down-and triggers-the thyristor which will shorts out the supply line and blows the main fuse.   (View)

Universal Power Supply Module 3V-30V

Published:2013/3/20 1:51:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Universal , Power Supply Module , 3V-30V

This universal power supply circuit provides a variable voltage between 3-30 V. The power supply provides maximum current 1.5 A and with a few modifications and additions to modules can provide a higher current. Adjustable regulator LM317 (U1) offers short-circuit protection and automatic current limiting at 1.5A. The input voltage to the regulator is supplied by DB1, a 4 A 100 PIV full-wave bridge rectifier. Capacitor C1 gives initial filtering. U1 provides extra electronic filtering included in the regulating function. The output level of the regulator is set by trim-pot R1. To prevent high-frequency oscillation Bypass capacitor added to the input and output of U1 . The current output of the transformer should be no less than 1.8 times the rated continuous-duty output of the supply. Which means that a 1.5-A supply should apply a 2.7-A transformer. For light or intermittent loads, a smaller 2.0-A transformer should be enough. Wiring a 2nd Adjustable regulator LM317, U2, in parallel with U1 can be a quick and clean method to increase the current limiting threshold of the universal power supply to 3 A without having to sacrifice short-circuit protection. When more than 3 A is needed, the regulator module may be used to drive the base of one or more pass-transistors (see Fig. B).   (View)

Current Source / Regulator

Published:2013/3/20 1:50:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Current Source, Regulator

The Current Source/Regulator circuit powers the load through the regulator’s input rather than its output. Since the regulator’s output sees constant dummy load R1, it attempts to consume a constant amount of current, regardless of what the voltage across the actual load really is. Therefore, the regulator’s input works as a constant current source for the actual load. Thecurrent source circuit need power supply with any of the commonly available ± 15 or ± 12V . The voltage dropped over the regulator and dummy load lowered the total compliance voltage of the Current Source/ Regulator circuit. You set the load’s current with R1. The current equals 1.25 AAA x R.   (View)

This simple switching regulator circuit have 5 V output, the input provide by a 9 V battery. Ithaving 80% efficiency and 50mA output capability. How simple switching Regulator works:While Q1 is actually on, its collector voltage increases, delivering current through the inductor. The output voltage goes up, triggering A1′s(precision op amp LT1013) output to rise. Q1 cuts off as well as the output decays through the load. The 100pF capacitor would ensure clean switching. The cycle repeats when the output falls low enough for A1 to turn on Transistor Q1. The 1µF capacitor ensures low battery impedance at high frequencies, preventing sag during switching.   (View)

Electronic crowbar for AC and DC lines

Published:2013/3/20 1:34:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Electronic crowbar , AC and DC lines

For positive protection of electrical or electronic equipment, use this against excessive supply voltage. Because of incorrect switching, electrical wiring, short circuits, or failure of regulators, an electronic crow-bar circuit can quickly place a short circuit through the power lines, thereby decreasing the voltage across the protected device to close to zero and blowing a fuse. The triac and SBS both are bilateral components, the circuit will be equally useful on alternating current or direct current supply lines. Using the values shown for R1, R2, and R3, the crow-bar operating stage can be altered over the range of 60 to 120 volts dc or 42 to 84 volts ac. The resistor values may be changed to cover a different range of supply voltages. The voltage rating of the triac should be greater than the highest operating-point as set by R2. I1 is a low power incandescent bulb with a voltage rating similar to the supply voltage. It may be used to check the set point and operation of the unit by opening the test switch and adjusting the input or set point to fire the SBS.   (View)

Thermally Controlled Nicad Charger

Published:2013/3/20 1:31:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Thermally Controlled , Nicad Charger

One method to charge Nikel Cadmium (NiCad) batteries quickly with out abuse is generally to measure battery cell temperature and taper the charge accordingly. This nicad charger circuit works with a thermocouple for this function. Another thermocouple nulls out the effects of ambient temperature. The temperature difference between both thermocouples can determine the voltage, which will appears at the amplifier’s positive input. Since battery temperature rises, this small negative voltage (1 °C difference between the thermocouples equals 40 µV) gets larger. The amplifier, working at a gain of 4300, gradually reduces the current over the nicad battery to keep its inputs at balance. The nicad battery charges at a high rate until heating occurs and the circuit then tapers the charge. The values given in the circuit limit the battery-surface temperature rise over ambient to about 5°C.   (View)
