| Since my page was first posted, I have received a number of emails asking about a high current power supply. I looked around, but couldn't find one that was suitable. So, I designed this. It is a linear supply, which might have a few of you rolling your eyes, but it takes very few parts, is simple to build and can supply huge currents. |

| Like previous have said, the bottlenecks are your transformer, the transistor, and the diode bridge. There are better ways of getting high-amperage output. | ||
| Hello. I am trying to build a high current 8V, 6A for my project. I have transformer 220V IN, 12V, 5A out is it OK for above rated voltage required. I need circuit diagram for it. Tray to be easy to build with ordinary component. thanks | ||
| I am trying to design and build a 24VDC regulated power supply hat can deliver at least 50A and also has a 15V regulated output that only needs to deliver 100mA. Can you help me? | ||
| I need a schematic to build a power supply for a surround sound system that would handel a 400watt amp. please email me Thanks! | ||
| Hello, I am trying to build a12v baterry charger with current of atleast 10amps. Is this possible with help of ICs (LMXXX or any other) Please mail its sollution on my email id ie - | ||
| You have to use a device called dahono current doubler. I assure you it will gi ve twice current ratings than usual | ||
| Hi, we are going to make a 24 VDC regulated power supply as our project.We would like to ask help from you to provide us schematic diagram for this circuit.Thank you and God Bless. | ||
| Hello There. I am trying to build a high current psu 12v-30A. I am building n surround sound system using two 4-channel car amps. I want to know know if you could please e-mail me back. I need a circuit diagram please, 220vac to 12v/30A without using a transformer. thanks | ||
| actually Ose, the 2N3055 is rated for I believe 15 Amps which is the only component given limiting the power output as long as the correct choice is made for the Bridge and the Transformer. Although buying the capacitors for a reasonable ripple along with the bridge and the transformer rated for those amps may be cost prohibative. | ||
| This power supply is NOT HIGH CURRENT. It is only 500mA maximum, hi de osa | ||
