1 3V DC to 12 2V DC Regulator Power Supply
Power supply circuit to generate output below were variations between 1.3V DC to 12.2V DC with 1A current.
In addition, the power supply circuit is also equipped with over-current protection or shield against belebih flow. Power supply circuit is very simple, but the quality is quite good, made her basiskan regulator IC LM723 is a pretty legendary.
In addition, the power supply circuit is also equipped with over-current protection or shield against belebih flow. Power supply circuit is very simple, but the quality is quite good, made her basiskan regulator IC LM723 is a pretty legendary.
Description:
R2 to set the output voltage. The maximum current is determined by R3, over-current protection circuit inside the LM723 to detect the voltage on R3, if it reaches 0.65 V, the voltage output will be off her. So the current through R3 can not exceed 0.65 / R3 although output short-circuit in his.
C3 and C4 are ceramic capacitors, as much as possible directly soldered to the PCB, this is because the LM723 is prone to oscillation that is not cool.
LM723 works with 9.5V input voltage to 40 V DC and the LM723 can generate its own current of 150mA when the output voltage is not more than 6-7V under input voltage.
Specifications:
Output (value estimated):
Vmin = (R4 + R5) / (R5 * 1.3)
Vmax = (7.15 / R5) * (R4 + R5)
Imax = 0.65/R3
Max. Power on R3: 0.42/R3
Min. DC Input Voltage (pin 12 to pin 7): Vmax + 5

LM2576 ADJ 3V 3A Switching Regulator Circuit
I build this project when I have a problem to driver stepping motor that draw current 3A at 3V.After search the infomation on the internet I have found LM2576-ADJ which is an adjustable output version of 3A Step-Down Voltage switching Regulator and capable of driving 3A load with excellent line and load regulation. You can change R1 and R2 for your desired output voltage.In my design I use the circuit from the example circuit in data sheet and it works fine.

3v Low Battery Voltage Flasher
Many battery powered devices use two AA alkaline cells. Often you will not know when it is time to replace the batteries until the device powered by them actually stops operating. The hobby circuit below can be connected to a 3v battery, to give you some warning when the battery is nearing its end of life.

It will flash a LED when the battery voltage drops to about 2.4 volts. The electronic circuit draws only 1ua of current in standby mode and jumps to only 20ua when flashing, so it can safely be included without depleting the battery energy. A voltage detector IC from Panasonic (Microchip also makes similar devices) is used to monitor the battery voltage. The device’s open drain output swings low, when the battery voltage is below 2.4 to 2.5 volts. This action turns on the two transistor oscillator circuit, which drives the LED with short current pulses lasting only 2ms.

Power Supply Variable 1 3V 12 2V 1A Circuit
Power supply circuit to generate output below were variations between 1.3V DC to 12.2V DC with 1A current.
Read more3V LED Chaser Wiring diagram Schematic
There are many 9V chaser diagram that seem to waste about 7V when driving LEDs that are only about 2V. This project is unique, because it uses only two inexpensive alkaline battery cells totaling 3V for power. Since most of the waste is eliminated, the cells last a long time.
Unlike the other diagram, this one flashes the LEDs for only about 30ms each, further extending the battery life. For user convenience, it has a stepper speed control and a brightness control. At slower speeds and with reduced brightness, the battery life is further extended considerably. Mounted in a circle, the LEDs appear to rotate as they step from one to the next. Link
Specifications
• Battery: Two alkaline cells (AA size were used in the prototype)
• Battery Life: AA cells C cells D cells
Minimum speed and brightness 8 months 2 years 4.9 years
Medium speed and brightness 6 months 1.5 years 3.6 years
Maximum speed and brightness 2 weeks 1.5 months 3.6 months
• Stepper speed: 2 LEDs/sec to 2 revolutions/sec
• Brightness: Controlled with Pulse Width Modulation, from very dim to 161mcd (very bright)
• Pulse Width Modulation frequency: 1.4KHz very bright to 6KHz very dim
• LED current: 15mA pulses, reduced to 10.5mA at maximum Pulse Width Modulation
• LED voltage drop: 1.76V (measured, not rated) @ 10.5mA
• Minimum battery voltage (total of both cells): <1.24V, schema is running but LEDs are not lit
1.6V, LEDs are very dim at maximum brightness
2.0V, LEDs reach almost full brightness, battery replacement is recommended.
• Radio interference: None
Circuit Description
The 74HC Cmos ICs are rated for a 2V to 6V power supply for high-speed logic diagram. They continue to operate at a much lower voltage but no longer meet high-speed logic specifications. To reach high speeds, their output current can momentarily exceed 400mA (low voltage drop) but thermal considerations limit maximum continuous output current to 20mA. Perfect for driving LEDs!
• IC2 is a 10 stage Johnson counter/decoder. On the rising edge of each clock pulse its outputs step one-at-a-time. It drives the anode of each conducting LED toward the positive supply.
• IC1a is a standard Cmos inverter Schmitt-trigger oscillator with C3 and C4 totaling 800nF for a very slow step rate. R2 is the speed control pot with R1 limiting its maximum speed. It clocks IC2 and feeds the inverters/drivers. D1 and R3 reduce its output high time to 30mS.
• IC1d, IC1e, IC1f and IC1b are paralleled inverter/drivers for a low output voltage drop and drive the emitter of T1 to ground.
• IC1c is another standard Cmos inverter Schmitt-trigger oscillator. R5 is its Pulse Width Modulation control and with D3 performs dimming of the LEDs. D2 and R4 extend the PWM’s maximum pulse width.
• T1 is a transistor that is used as a PWM switch. R7 limits maximum LED pulse current.
• C1 bypasses the battery’s supply voltage at low frequencies and C2 bypasses at high frequencies.
Construction
The ten LEDs mount on a Compact-Disc which is glued to a plastic box with contact cement. The box houses the Veroboard schema in its lower main part with the battery holder in its lid. Multiconductor ribbon cable joins the LEDs to the schema. The pots mount on the sides of the box.
