Self switching Power Supply - One of the main features of the regulated power
supply circuit being presented is that though fixed-voltage regulator LM7805 is used
in the circuit, its output voltage is variable. This is achieved by connecting a
potentiometer between common terminal of regulator IC and ground. For every 100-ohm
increment in the in-circuit value of the resistance of potentiometer VR1, ....

Simple Switching Power Supply (karl lunt) - I built a PCB for a simple switching
power supply, originally designed by Keith Payea of the SRS. It uses an LM393, a
P-channel power MOSFET, and darn little else. Since its frequency varies based on load
(and nearly everything else imaginable), you can use junk-box parts and build it for
cheap...(electronic circuit added 6/07) |

Single FET Controls 2nd LED Array in Switchmode LED Backlight - Maxim APP1871:
Feb03,2003 / (app note added 5/08) -A design in which the display is backlit (or
frontlit) for extended periods needs an efficient circuit that drives the LEDs with a
controlled current, and eliminates the wasted power associated with current-limiting
resistors. A switch-mode boost design that regulates current instead of voltage
accomplishes this purpose. |

SPICE Predicts Differential Conducted EMI from Switching Power Supplies - 02/03/97
EDN-Design Feature.....(design idea added 11/05) Spice not only can
predict the exact EMI levels produced by a switched-mode power supply, but also can
produce plots that allow you to easily evaluate your design and the effectiveness of
the EMI filter.—Christophe Basso, Sinard, France |

Switch Mode Battery Eliminator Based on a PIC16C72a - Microchip Application Note
Published 25-Mar-99 (app note added 2/06) |

Switch Mode DC Supply - The switching power supply, shown in the schematic,
provides12 volts, at10 amps, maximum, using a discrete transistor regulator with an
op-amp functioning as a comparator in the feedback circuit. The supply was constructed
in1984 and is variable frequency, as opposed to the pulse width modulator (PWM)
controllers used today. (added 4/02) |

Switched gain OpAmp serves as phase detector or mixer - 05/01/08 EDN-Design Ideas:
By switching the disable input of an op amp at a reference frequency and lowpass-filtering
its output, you can obtain a dc voltage proportional to the phase
difference.....(design idea added 09/08) |

Switching converter uses planar magnetics - 11/07/96 EDN-Design Ideas: Planar-magnetics
technology is growing in popularity as a design option for dc-dc converters. In
addition to providing electrical benefits, planar magnetics offers reduced leakage
inductance and improved consistency. It also significantly reduces the cost of
magnetics if you integrate it into the printed-circuit board....(added 09/05) |

Switching regulator forms constant Current source - 05/30/02 EDN-Design Ideas:
Many applications require current sources rather than voltage sources. When you need a
high-current source, using a linear regulator is inadvisable, because of the high
power dissipation in the series resistor. To solve the wasted-power problem, you can
use a switch-mode regulator. The circuit of Figure 1 uses IC1, an LM2576 adjustable
regulator.....(design idea added 1/05) |

Switching Regulator Output goes BeLow VREF - 03/17/94 EDN-Design Ideas: The
feedback arrangement of typical switching regulators doesn't allow the regulated
outputs to go lower than the reference voltage. If you try to lower the output by
modifying the feedback network, the compensation components the manufacturer
recommends may no longer stabilize the regulator's error amplifier.....(design idea
