If a capacitor is being used in the schematic you should know why it is there and how its value is calculated.
Regulated power supply design calculations.
Online engineering calculator to quickly estimate the component values for a linear power supply.
However for achieving a regulated dual power supply with the desired level of dual voltage at the output is something which normally requires a complex design using costly ics.
Power supply design php 10005 bytes 12 02 2018 11 22 24 linear power supply design assistant 1.
All of our calculations to determine the correct transformer will assume that the input voltage can vary from 95 to 130v and not change the output of our supply.
The power supply which we will design here is very basic.
The use of a regulated linear power supply is to provide a constant output voltage over a variety of loads and also a variation of the input voltage.
For this purpose we have to assemble a rectifier circuit on the output of a transformer.
With these steps you can design your regulated power supply.
It is a linear technology based design will go through you each design step try to present everything in simple language will carry out some design mathematics i e.
The aim of this lab assignment is to design a dc power supply.
I am going with a specific example of 5v because i think it would be best in this way to understand the whole design process.
It also involve the calculation of different components used so the dc supple contains lesser ripples.
The following design shows how simply and discretely a dual power supply could be configured using a few bjts and a few resistors.
