DC Motor Speed Controller Circuit Diagram


DC Motor Speed Controller Circuit Diagram. This circuit takes advantage of the voltage drop across bridge rectifier diodes to produce a 5-position variable voltage supply to a DC fan or other small DC motor. It is not as efficient as a switch-mode circuit but it has the virtues of simplicity and no switching hash. The four full-wave bridges are connected so that each has two pairs of series diodes in parallel, giving a voltage drop of about 1.4V, depending on the load current.

The rotary switch should have "make before break" contacts which should be rated to take currents up to about an amp or so. For higher currents, higher rated bridge rectifiers and a suitably rugged rotary switch (or solenoids) will be required. If you want smaller voltage steps, you could use the commoned AC inputs on the bridge rectifiers to give intermediate steps on the speed switch.

Build a 12V 7.2Ah SMF Battery Charger Circuit Diagram . The LM317 is an adjustable three-terminal positive-voltage regulator capable of supplying more than 1.5A over an output-voltage range of 1.25 V to 37 V. It is exceptionally easy to use and requires only two external resistors, R2’ and R2” (R2= R2’+ R2”) to set the output voltage. Furthermore, both line and load regulation is better than standard fixed regulators. In addition to having higher performance than fixed regulators, this device includes on-chip current limiting thermal overload protection, and safe-operating-area protection. All overload protection remains fully functional, even if the ADJUST terminal is disconnected. By connecting a fixed resistor, R1 the ADJUST and OUTPUT terminals, the LM317 can function as a precision current regulator. An optional output capacitor can be added to improve transient response. Schematic Diagram using LM317   The ADJUST terminal can be bypassed to achieve very high ripple-rejection ra

Full Power Mobile Phone Jammer Circuit Diagram .To day if we are talking about expert Cell phone Jammers we are conversing about this schematic underneath. First off all you should be very very cautious how to use this apparatus. Its completely illegal and so the reason. I post this Circuit is only for educational and testing causes. This type of apparatus is being utilised by security for VIPS, particularly at their limousines to avoid blasting device initiating while the vehicle passes from the goal cell phone-bomb. Off course there are those who use it to make a antic or to make the persons crazy in the rectangle block you are. The power of the jammer is currently sufficient to do your thing, but certainly you can place a 30W linear power amp at the RF output and impede a much wider locality. So, Be pleasant individual with that and recall that there are people who may need desperately to obtain or make a call and one of them could be you! And if you can't oppose of functio

On line Ladder Program Editing for RSLogix 500

On line Ladder Program Editing for RSLogix 500 There are five basic steps in performing an edit on line.   1)   Start Edits, 2)   Make Changes, 3)   Accept edits, 4)   Test Edits, and 5) Assemble edits.   Although these steps seem very simple there are a few rules to watch out for.   You cannot expand or create a data table on line in the SLC, and you must be in program mode (or off line) to expand a data table on line in the PLC-5.   You cannot make an on line edit if the key switch is in Run Mode.   In the PLC-5, if backplane switch 8 is on, you cannot make an on line edit.     You do not need to perform an on line edit to directly change a value in the data table such as the preset of a timer or counter.   If the processor is in program mode, you do not need to test and assemble after accepting.   If the processor is in program mode, and a rung is deleted, there is no warning. Let's walk through the 5 step procedure: Look at the rung below.   Our objective is to transfer contro
