6 to 15V DC to DC Converter


 

A very efficient 6V to 15V DC to DC converter using LM2585 is shown here. LM2585 is a monolithic integrated voltage converter IC that can be used in various applications like flyback converters, boost converters, forward converters, multiple output converters etc. The circuit requires minimum number of external components and the IC can source up to 3A output current.

6 to 15V DC to DC Converter Circuit Diagram


Here the IC is wired as a boost converter where resistors R1 and R2 are used to set the output voltage .The junction of R1 and R2 is connected to the feedback pin of IC1. Capacitor C4 is the input filter while capacitor C1 the filter for output. Network comprising of resistor R1 and capacitor C2 is meant for frequency compensation. Inductor L1 stores the energy for acquiring boost conversion.

Notes:    

  • Assemble the circuit on a good quality PCB.
  • LM2585 requires a heatsink.
  • Output voltage is according to the equation Vout =( (R1/R2)+1) x 1.23.
  • Capacitors other than C4 and C1 are ceramic capacitors.
  • Maximum output current LM2585 can source is 3A.

A basic Arduino Solar PV Monitor

I have just recently had solar pv installed, mainly to future proof my energy costs, I do not expect it to be like drilling for oil in my back garden, however the return looks to be encouraging. The install gives you another single unit meter, from this you will see the total amount the panels produce, but that is about it. I wanted to know how much the production was as it was happening, I discovered the light blinks on the front of the meter will flash 1000 times for each kWh of electricity which passes through. The rate of the flashing of the LED tells you how much power is currently passing through the meter. [ ]

Schematic Audio Amplifier with IC AN7102S

This Schematic use IC AN7102S , this is setereo amplifier and have output speaker 7,5 mW with impedance 32 Ohm . Supply need 1Volt to 3 Volt , wow this amplifier low voltage. You can use this amplifier on radio is use battery . With just one battery with voltage 1,5 Volt you can play this amplifier. See this Schematic below : Click to Enlarge Datasheet IC AN7102S Vcc                   =  1-3 V Pout                 = 2X 7,5 mW RL                    = 32 Ohm Ft                      = 20hz - 20Khz Icco                  = 7 mA Package         = DIP-18 Manufactered = MATSUSHITA
