Digital Bench Power Supply Project

Not all bench power supplies are exactly the same.

Digital bench power supply project.

The multimeter was used in parallel together with the oscilloscope to confirm the output values as measured by the digital bench power supply. A new design for a digital bench power supply built using the atmega8. Multi channel on the other hand have two or more options for output. You can buy bench power supplies of course but they are not inexpensive.

A new design made from scratch for a digital bench power supply to offer regulated voltage and current and prompt shortcircuit protection as a follow up to one of my earlier regulated power supplies initially designed to deliver 0 30volts at up to 10amps i have decided it was time for an upgrade. A bench power supply is an extremely handy bit of kit to have around for electronics hobbyists but they can be expensive when purchased from the market. In this instructable i will show you how to make a variable lab bench power supply with a limited budget it is a great diy project for beginners as well as any one interested in electronics. An ideal workbench power supply should have both 5 volt and 12 volt outputs with 3 3 volts being a nice option as well.

Single channel multi channel power supplies. It should be capable of providing several amperes of current for each voltage. A single channel bench power supply unit has exactly what its name suggests. 1 branch 0 tags.

Different types of bench power supplies. Yes the last picture is the very old photo of my first power supply constructed a few years ago. There are six major types.
