IT WOULD BE AWESOME.....if you made a video teaching the process of drawing and reading schematics. From simple to intermediate / advanced. You describe them better than anyone I've seen and would love a long-form video talking more about schematics. Specifically showing how to trace the current path on the circuit diagram. A lot of folks don't understand how the current travels through a circuit, and your diagrams would be the perfect opportunity to teach that particular aspect. Accompanied with drawing / reading diagrams

That "slow blink" your cat did is how cats "smile" at us. Well, I guess in this case s/he smiled for the camera. 😀

Nice to see that somebody else uses this technic for building prototipe circuits pcb (... I believed to be the only one). I learned this technic a long time ago (ok,not so long... maybe 40 years:I was a fresly graduated young engineer) when I started to work for a telecommunication equipment company and I was sent to a tour in the prototipe building department and I saw some dental cutter (I am not joking ... "dental cutter here...for what????"). I was explained that the usage was for building prototipe pcs and they showed me how to cut traces into copper sheets. If you have enough skill (..not all have) is it possible do make nice works. Obviously do not pretend to build a controller with 40 or 80 pins chips or use smd chips, but for buildig prototipes with some 2.54 mm ics and insertion components it works nice and (this is a bonus) you can also use two layers copper sheets and have a large ground layer. Now I use exactly your technic at home for the circuits I buid at home for hobby, when it is possible to avoid to send a gerber file to China and whait for a "professional" pcb).Thanks for having unblocked the memory.

Your creations have always a very special style. It's not only your cat likes this, me too.

Thanks! I like your bloody long videos most, because of more information and detailed explanations. I like all sorts of powersupplies too. I missed up today a discrete Linear powersupply, as COUNTERPART to the old switching single transistor phone charger.

@11:40 to measure the junction temperature of the regulator use thr RthJL from the datasheet, and meaaure the temperature of one of the legs. The legs of the transistor are connected to the die. The final temp is the sum of the temp rise across the junction and the leg.

WILD Video Proposal & C#5: Repurposing Unknown transformer. Posters/authors comment that nominal current or VA of an Unknown transformer (not those of yours still with some labeling) could be “guesstimated” by plotting AC Voltage vs Current The increase of AC consumed power is done by increasing loads (for instance: shower resistance, or salted water solution and metal plates as variable distance submerged electrodes. They claim that about 10% to 20% voltage drop (sometimes being called ‘transformer droop’ ?!?) is the limit, but I did not see this being done with temperature monitoring too. Others, estimate the VA by measuring the cross section of the central iron core, in cm2 and correlating to the maximum VA by some empirical formulas. So, there might be plenty of ideas to evolve in something that every country and user may face, sooner or later. Thanks again for sharing - always nice to see your channel!

If I understand correctly, in the current regulation mode, this supply always has about 5mA rising current slope, when the output voltage goes from the set voltage down to complete short circuit. This comes from the fact that we are regulating the current of the voltage regulator together with the output current. So when the circuit goes into current regulation, the voltage regulator looses the abilty to regulate output voltage so the current into adjust potentiometer is not a constant 5mA any more, but slowly dropping towards 0mA as the output voltage is nearing full short circuit. So the 5mA that usually flow into voltage adjust potentiometer is eventually flowing into the shorted output. Since the slope is always 5mA, we notice this more, when setting low currents, say 10mA, than when when we set higher currents, say 100mA. Which is, of course, totally acceptable for current limiting, but one should know, it's not meant to be a good current source.

I liked the way you tested the characteristics of the transformers. I never thought to do this kind of testing before choosing one for your application. .👍👍👍👍👍 I will definitely use the technique with the scope to test potentiometers in the future. Great idea.

This will be a nice power supply for the breadboard. An nice description of the design and operation, very educational. Linear power supplies seem simple but there are a lot of factors to consider. The diode voltage drops were not accounted for in the transformer calculations. Schottkey diodes are very nice to use but remember that some types have a bloody low reverse voltage breakdown. Your circuit descriptions are the best.

Cool build. :) I appreciate the skill to build something fast and decent looking. So many years and I've never thought to put rubber seals to distance the potentiometer from the case. Ingenious solution! :) I've only used metal washers or a second nut. Cheers! :)

It's always interesting to see your "peculiar" PCB manufacturing that ends up looking very nice. Although seeing an unsocketed IC hurt me a bit :(

Missed you! Welcome back!

Excellent video as always. I really like when you use heritage Tesla parts from the Soviet days, awesome. Thanks Dan!

Use a transformer with two secondary windings so that you can switch between them to have lower voltage drop (why 15v in - 3.3v out on regulator when you can have 8v in - 3.3v out). Bonus, you can parallel the secondary windings to get double current on secondary, but lower output voltage range. Often as little as 10-20mA is enough to put some load on transformer, or you could add one or two 1n400x diodes to drop around 0.7v per diode if the maximum voltage is too close to regulator maximum. Up to 11 minutes in video, no mention about capacitor after rectifier to smooth out ... a reasonably value is around 2200uF per A of current... or approximate with formula C = current / [ 2 x ac frequency x (Vdc peak - Vdc min desired) ]

Wow the jlc-pcb diy pcb kit looks rough but im sure they will come through. I use this pcb technique quite often after i got sick of perf-board and didn't want to order pcb-s from china or to use some kind of dangerous chemical corrosion. I actually learned about it from you. Then i found some other ones on KZread. The Dremel is too rough for me and triggers a bit of ocd. I use a scoring knife and ruler for a nicer result. But if it works it works.

Great project / video. Thank you. ;)

Very interesting sharing, thanks! Few comments, piecewise: Hint - solution is in the name DIODEgoneWild C#1: Headroom estimation is done at short circuit and No Load voltages, BUT… #1A This is not true, as in low CC values, voltage drop is consumed by the MOSFET, not the linear regulator, that would still be Ok. #1B At Full current, (mosfet not limiting current)m Vin-Vout might be only for fully charged capacitor, then, showing output. #1C Otherwise, capacitor voltage will always be lower, due to transformer loading. Mitigation for risk at 1B: 2~5R power resistor at input of LM, and/or 2~4Diodes (used wildly) in series, at Vin of LM 😊

You can add a digital or analog modul to show the voltage and current value.

Nice video, how you measured the short-circuit output current without blowing the internal fuse of the transformer.

You can find thermal resistance in the datasheet, for LM317T (from ST) it's 3 °C/W for TO220, funnily enough, it's 4 for the thicc TO3. So in your case, die is about 18°C hotter than the heatsink, unless the thin tab has bent under the pressure from the screw and flopped it's bottom half away from the heatsink.

The power dissipation is 5W higher for the TO3 package (20W) when compared to the TO220 package (15W).

C#4: Transformer selection among existing used ones = nice to see highlights of protection, fuse or PTC. I found this somehow detailed, but still brief - paradoxically, I know. Detailed when you compared amongst 3 options, interesting to know the short circuit current, but I felt missing the voltage under a given load, say 12V 5W and 10W lamps (car lamps would work here), under AC voltage measurements.

Thank you for a nice video reminding me not to overcomplicate every design I try to make. However, did you test the stability of voltage or current regulation with different capacitive loads? Does it ring excessively or oscillate with any? Also opamp driving a mos-fet with a huge input capacitance usually requires some frequ. compensation in the feed back loop - were you lucky that it did not tend to ring a lot, or is it something about the particular configuration that makes it stable?
