5V power supply teams low dropout regulator, charge pump -
8-Jan-04 Issue of EDN Auxiliary power of 3.3V is replacing the 5V
auxiliary power that "silver boxes" supply in most computer systems, but
some circuits still require a 5V supply. Such systems impose the messy
task of creating a central 5V auxiliary supply from the 3.3V auxiliary
supply.... [Design Idea by Jim Christensen, Maxim Integrated Products,

5V powersupply - This circuit will regulate voltage to 5V input range is
6V..12V. The diode prevents the circuit being damaged when the input is connected
the wrong way around. The resistor and LED are optionial, they are for power on

Add gain to an absolute-value amplifier - 22-Aug-02 Issue of EDN
The absolute-value amplifier is a basic building block in test-and-measurement and
signal-processing applications. The addition of a DPP (digitally programmable
potentiometer] adds another dimension, G (gain], to this key circuit. Because the
gain is programmable, you can use the circuit as an absolute-value amplifier (G&1]
or an absolute-value attenuator (G>1].... [Design Idea by Chuck Wojslaw, Catalyst

Adjustable Low-voltage Power Supply - If you want to check the behaviour
of an electronic circuit at low voltages, an adjustable power supply as shown here
may be helpful. Powered from a 3 to 16 volts source (DC for sure), it will provide
a stable output voltage in the 0 to 1.5 V range.….must register on this site....

Adjustable Voltage Motor Controller - One of the nice things about
flying electric is you can test run your motor in the house, workshop, or in the
yard and the neighbors won't complain. The problem is how to control the speed of
the motor. One way is to use the plane, radio, and speed control with the motor in
it. That's no fun!....(electronic circuit added 4/05) |

Constant Current Battery Charger - A simple method of charging a battery
from a higher voltage battery is shown in the circuit below to the left. Only one
resistor is needed to set the desired charging current and is calculated by
dividing the difference in battery voltages by the charge current. So, for example
if 4 high capacity (4000 mA hour) ni-cads are to be charged at 300 mA from a 12
volt battery, the resistor need,.... [Bill Bowden's website] |

Dual Regulated Power Supply-PSU - In this circuit, the 7815 regulatates
the positive supply, and the 7915 regulates the negative supply. The transformer
should have a primary rating of 240/220 volts for europe, or 120 volts for North
America. The centre tapped secondary coil should be rated about 18 volts at 1 amp
or higher,allowing for losses in the regulator. An application for this type of
circuit would be for a small regulated bench power supply.... [Circuit by Andy

Dual-voltage regulator meets USB-power needs - 19-Aug-04 Issue of EDN
This Design Idea stems from the limited availability of IC voltage regulators that
can meet key USB-power specs, coupled with the need for turn-on sequencing and
rise-time control at each output. As always, for PC-related designs, minimum cost
is a primary motivation. USB specs require all loads to limit inrush current to
less than 100 mA plus 50 µC of charge when powered on.... [Design Idea by Wayne
