Dual Polarity Power Supply Circuit Diagram

Description This dual polarity power supply is easy to build, requires few parts, and is adjustable from 0-15 volts. It is great for powering op amp circuits, as well as other circuits that require a dual supply voltage.

U1 and U2 get quite hot and will require heatsinks. A fan is usually not needed. You can, of course, add a volt and amp meter. U1 and U2 can only go down to a minimum of +-1.2V. If you need to go lower, you can add two 1N4003 diodes...
