Description

Substitutions
R1, R2, R3, R4, R8, R76100K 1/4W Resistor
R51470 Ohm 1/2W Resistor
R6110K Linear Pot
C110.01uF Mylar Capacitor
C210.1uF Ceramic Disc Capacitor
C31470uF 63V Electrolytic Capacitor
D111N4004 Rectifier Diode
D21BY229-400 Fast Recovery DiodeSee Notes
Q11BC337 NPN Power Transistor
U11LM358 Dual Op Amp IC
L11See Notes
MISC1Board, Wire, Socket For U1, Case, Knob For R6, Heatsink for Q1


Notes

  1. R6 sets the output voltage. This can be calculated by Vout = 12 x (R8/(R8+R7)) x (R6B/R6A).
  2. L1 is made by winding 60 turns of 0.63MM magnet wire on a toroidial core measuring 15MM (OD) by 8MM (ID) by 6MM (H).
  3. D2 can be any fast recovery diode rated at greater then 100V at 5A. It is very important that the diode be fast recovery and not a standard rectifier.
  4. Q1 will need a heatsink.
