Very good. Best from you so far. The addition of a small volt metre module to the case would not go amiss. You have already shown where to connect one with the multi metre.

I would also add a reversible barrel connector output from an adjustable 3,4.5,6,7.5,9 and 12volt barrel interchangeable wall power supply.That way you can power most low power electronics,and reverse the barrels if the tip is non standard negative.Some tips are negative for some reason.

[@anomittity]

Usually when you find the tips reversed its because the company wanted to make the PSU Proprietary so you can only get it from them. Any noob cake can simply cut/splice the wires in reverse. 😆

Great presentation. I'll still stick to the bench power supply that is less than $50 with all bells and whistles and have tested well by other KZbinrs

[@victorp.6907]

На сопротивлении перепаяй провода, чтобы при вращении по часовой стрелке напряжение увеличивалось, а против уменьшалось. Так буде правильнее. И переменное можно взять с меньшими габаритами и поставит в центр корпуса во внутрь, а наружу вывести только ручку.

电源内变压器最大转换电压约是标称的2倍，并且要考虑高电压端的电压余量，所以用5V的电源只能最高调到10V左右，同时滤波电解电容器的容量和耐压应加大。 The maximum conversion voltage of the transformer in the power supply is about twice the nominal, and the voltage margin of the high-voltage terminal must be considered. Therefore, the 5V power supply can only be adjusted to a maximum of about 10V, and the capacity and withstand voltage of the filter electrolytic capacitor should be increased.

[@ylw4708]

补充一下，下面电阻应该1KB才对，否则理论上最高电压只有13.86V左右 To add, the following resistance should be 1KB, otherwise the theoretical maximum voltage is only about 13.86V

[@trickfan2772]

👍👏Thank you!

[@lingli314]

The transformer was dedicated around the peak voltage ex 12V, you cannot increase or decrease the TL431 above 12 volts because the PWM IC pulse duty cycle will run out of range and stop oscillating.

[@Elfnetdesigns]

^This^ Most people watching this stuff are looking to be as cheap as possible "I has old laptop or phone chargers! I don't need to pay $75+ for a proper adjustable PSU" and know very little about HOW switch mode PSU's work. Fixed output units are designed to be fixed output.. I mean I guess this would be fine for someone learning electronics to experiment with but not for someone looking for a bench PSU, definitely if one needs an LED light driver..

[@cdrive5757]

Convention has it that when a Pot is turned clockwise the output voltage (Vout) should increase not decrease as seen here. Swapping the two fixed wire nodes of the Pot will fix this.

[@binaryglitch64]

Your not wrong, I rewired the pots in my mom's stereo to be left handed friendly (she's left handed) as a kid... the moral of that story was tangential but since I brought it up anyways... I learned that you should ask if people want a favor before you do it... she had gotten used to using them the normal way and it kept throwing her off, so she had me change it back. Also while technically a variable resistor in theory should work fine both ways, design is probably party informed by this convention thus they're designed to be used per the convention. Though I doubt that the design-informed-by-convention effect has had much or even any effect in the actual pots produced by the various manufacturers, so I can't see it being an issue, I'm just explaining the underlying principles of why we... you know what, I'm talking too much...

[@cdrive5757]

@@binaryglitch64 Are you perhaps a psychology student? I think you've over complicated a basic electronics convention. Whether it be controlling the brilliance of a lamp, the volume level of an audio amplifier or the Output voltage of a bench power supply the following is an accepted POT convention worldwide. Turning Clockwise = Increase Turning Counterclockwise = Decrease

[@binaryglitch64]

[@echodelta9]

It's not just convention. I reversed the gas valves on my stove. I have seen only one volume control wired up wrong. Hotel in Florida vacation and my dad blasted the TV every time he went to adjust it. Plumbing is where this got screwed (pun) up. They took a normal right hand thread and put it into a head and valve seat and now it works backwards. Electronic controls hadn't been invented yet. But now hear me out, if you have a logarithmic volume pot it will definitely be near useless backwards. Grant's mom knew something was not right, all the range was near the one wrong end. A linear pot would be better for voltage selection, where half way up is about half the voltage range.

[@josephdanielsmith6179]

I suppose it reaches the maximum voltage of the adapter, in this case 12v or a little more. He's probably saying it's good for adapters up to 25v because he puts 25v capacitors. I don't consider it click bait, as it does give a way to get variable voltage up to the adapters voltage.

Add 3.2k resistance parallel to 2.2k nothing but reduce ref point to ground resistance less than 1k

One of the wires connected to the potentiometer if the side was changed then the rising voltage would be clockwise instead of anti clockwise and that is more logical.
