The two power supply circuits are presented to illustrate the soft start procedure using LM317 and L200 integrated circuits where each reaches the desired output of 15 V gradually for a period of 5 second.
The circuit design was intended to create an adjustable power supply over a range of 1.3V to 12.2V at 1A and be able to provide protection for over-current by utilizing LM723 regulator.
The circuit diagram was designed to create a power supply without utilizing any transformer circuit. This circuit illustrates the advantages as well as the safety precautions to keep in mind.
The circuit was designed for a power supply that can be adjusted or altered depending on the pre-set value by using a L200 volatge and current regulator.
