Using LTC3601 3 3V DC Power Converter

This Dc power converter circuit is designed LTC3601 from Linear Technology and is capable to up to 1.5A output current at a 3.3V. The LTC3601 operating supply voltage range is from 4V to 15V making it suitable for a wide range of power supply applications. The operating frequency of the LTC3601 buck regulator is programmable from 800kHz to 4MHz with an external resistor enabling the use of small surface mount inductors.

The LTC3601 buck regulator can operate in two modes: Burst Mode operation and forced continuous mode to allow the user to optimize output voltage ripple, noise, and light load efficiency for a given application.

12 Volt DC Fluorescent Lamp Driver

A number of people have been unable to find the transformer needed for the Black Light project, so I looked around to see if I could find a fluorescent lamp driver that does not require any special components. I finally found one in Electronics Now. Here it is. It uses a normal 120 to 6V stepdown transformer in reverse to step 12V to about 350V to drive a lamp without the need to warm the filaments.

12 Volt DC Fluorescent Lamp Driver circuit diagram

Parts:

C1 100uf 25V Electrolytic Capacitor
C2,C3 0.01uf 25V Ceramic Disc Capacitor
C4 0.01uf 1KV Ceramic Disc Capacitor
R1 1K 1/4W Resistor
R2 2.7K 1/4W Resistor
Q1 IRF510 MOSFET
U1 TLC555 Timer IC
T1 6V 300mA Transformer
LAMP 4W Fluorescent Lamp
MISC Board, Wire, Heatsink For Q1

Notes:

Q1 must be installed on a heat sink.
A 240V to 10V transformer will work better then the one in the parts list. The problem is that they are hard to find.
This circuit can give a nasty (but not too dangerous) shock. Be careful around the output leads.

5V DC REGULATED PHONE CHARGER ELECTRONIC DIAGRAM

Regulated phone charger which is used as an emergency charger for mobile phones with source from ordinary batteries, and works with 1.5V input DC voltage. At 5V, it can provide output to 70mA. If the current is drawn, the voltage will be drop. A006 microcontroller is used to create square wave which used to drive the Field Effect Transistor BBV93.

1 5 35 Volt DC Regulated Power Supply

Here is the circuit diagram of regulated power supply. It is a small power supply that provides a regulated voltage, adjustable between 1.5 and 35 volts at 1 ampere. This circuit is ready to use, you just need to add a suitable transformer. This circuit is thermal overload protected because the current limiter and thermal overload protection are included in the IC.
