Mini Switching Power Supply 5V - 25V, 3A with TNY268 and PCB

Para Versão em Portugues, clique aqui!

In this article, we will be discussing a mini switched power supply that provides 5V to 25Vdc output. This power supply is perfect for various electronic devices that require a stable and reliable power supply.

This is a power supply based on the TNY268 Integrated Circuit, which is part of a series of TinySwitch-II circuits: TNY263, TNY264, TNY265, TNY266, TNY267 and TNY268.

For a Flyback-type switched power supply like the one proposed, this IC is ideal, it integrates in its encapsulation the components necessary for it to work:

PWM Control, Power Mosfets
Overcurrent Protection
Over-Temperature Protection
Self-Feeding System

It does not need auxiliary windings, which makes it a complete IC, with DIP8 encapsulation, with a PWM working frequency of 132kHz and a voltage of up to 700V.

We will dive into the technical specifications, design, and features of this power supply and how it compares to other similar products in the market.

Technical Specifications

The mini switched power supply has an input voltage range of 80V to 260V AC, which makes it suitable for use in different parts of the world.

It provides an output voltage that can be regulated between 5V to 25V, with a current of up to 3A, depending on the configuration that we choose.

The power supply also has short-circuit protection and overvoltage protection, ensuring the safety of the connected devices.

Design

The mini switched power supply has a compact design, with dimensions of 55mm x 26mm x 21mm. The power supply is enclosed in a plastic case that protects the circuitry from dust and other environmental factors.

The power supply has a standard WJ2EDGVC-5.08-2P connector, making it easy to connect different electronic devices.

Caution!

"This circuit works directly connected to the electrical network, this is extremely dangerous, any carelessness, or wrong connections, design error, or any other occasion, can lead to irreversible damage.

We are not responsible for any type of occurrence. If you don't have enough experience, don't build this circuit, and if you build it, when testing it, be sure to have the proper protections and be accompanied by someone else."

Features

One of the standout features of this mini switched power supply is its efficiency. It has a high efficiency rating of up to 85%, which means that it wastes less energy as heat compared to other similar products.

This feature is especially important for electronic devices that are battery-powered, as it helps to extend their battery life.

Another feature of this power supply is its low ripple and noise. The power supply has a ripple voltage of less than 50mV, which ensures that the connected devices receive a stable and noise-free power supply.

This is especially important for audio devices, where any noise in the power supply can cause unwanted noise in the audio output.

TNY268 - Pinout and Description

The TNY268 is packaged in a DIP-8B structure for perforated pinouts and an SMD-8B package for SMD.

The package is similar to the well-known IC LM555, with the exception of pin 6 hidden in the TNY268, as we can see in the pinout of Figure 2, below.

Fig. 2 - Pinout - Pinout TNY268

We leave below the description of each pin of the TNY268 Integrated Circuit to facilitate our understanding.

DRAIN (D): Power MOSFET drain connection. Provides internal operating current for start-up and steady-state operation.
BYPASS (BP): Connection point for an external 0.1 µF bypass capacitor for the internally generated 5.8 V supply.
ENABLE/UNDERVOLTAGE (EN/UV): This pin has two functions: input enable and line undervoltage detection. During normal operation, power MOSFET switching is controlled by this pin. MOSFET switching is terminated when a current greater than 240 μA is drawn from this pin.

This pin also detects line undervoltage conditions through an external resistor connected to the DC line voltage. If there is no external resistor connected to this pin, TinySwitch-II detects its absence and disables the line undervoltage function.
SOURCE (S): Common control circuit, connected internally to the output MOSFET source.
SOURCE (HV RTN): MOSFET source connection output for high voltage feedback.

The Switched Power Supply Circuit

The Mini Switched Power Supply Circuit with TNY268 for 5V - 24V, 3A output is a simple yet powerful design, as shown in Figure 3 below.

However, due to the involvement of electricity, it requires careful handling and at least intermediate knowledge of electronics to assemble the circuit.

Fig. 3 - Schematic Diagram Mini Switching Power Supply 5V - 25V, 3A with TNY268

The schematic diagram of the Mini Switched Power Supply Circuit is well laid out and easy to understand. It includes a TNY268 controller that regulates the output voltage and current of the power supply.

The circuit has a few essential components such as capacitors, resistors, diodes, and an inductor, which work together to provide stable and efficient power.

Regulate The Output Voltage

The output voltage is adjusted through two parameters in the circuit:

The D4 diode, which is a 1W Power Zener diode.
The secondary winding of the transformer.

The Zener Diode

The zener diode D4, is the diode that will adjust the output voltage, we must configure it as follows,

when the desired voltage is Xv, the zener diode must have a voltage Xv - 1.

The diode should be 1V lower than the nominal voltage of the power supply, this lower voltage is due to the photocoupler being connected in series with the zener diode, and since it is an “LED” diode, we have the voltage drop on it.

For example:

To obtain a voltage of 5V at the power supply output:

The zener diode D4 = 4V. We use a commercial 4.3V, 1N4731 zener diode.

To obtain a voltage of 9V at the power supply output:

The zener diode D4 = 8V. We use a commercial 8.2V, 1N4738 zener diode.

To obtain a voltage of 12V at the power supply output:

The zener diode D4 = 11V. We use a commercial 11V, 1N4741 zener diode.

To obtain a voltage of 25V at the power supply output:

The zener diode D4 = 24V. We use a commercial 24V, 1N4749 zener diode.

The Transformer

The transformer used in this circuit was a high frequency transformer, often found in PC power supplies, as illustrated in Figure 4 below, a model EE-25 Ferrite transformer.

Fig. 4 EE-25 Ferrite Transformer

Primary coil winding

The primary will be wound to support a voltage between 85V and 260V, and this will be done by winding 140 turns of 33AWG enamelled wire, or 0.18 mm diameter wire.

Right after winding the primary, place appropriate insulation tape, with electrical and thermal insulation, to insulate the primary from the secondary.

Secondary coil winding

The secondary will be wound according to the desired output voltage, and this will be done in such a way that, for each desired 1V, 1.4 turns of 17AWG enameled wire or 1.15 mm wire are wound.

The calculation for an output voltage of 5V can be achieved using the formula below:

Formula: N = V * F

N = Number of Turns
V = Desired Voltage
C = Constant = 1.4

V = 5V
C = 1.4
N = ?

N = 5 * 1.4
N = 7 laps

For 5V on the output, we have 7 turns to wind in the secondary.

The calculation for an output voltage of 9V:

V = 9V
F = 1.4
N = ?
N = 9 * 1.4
N = 12.6 = ~13 Rounds

For 9V on the output, we have 13 turns to wind in the secondary.

The calculation for an output voltage of 12V:

V = 12V
F = 1.4
N = ?
N = 12 * 1.4
N = 16.8 = ~17 Rounds

For 12V output, we have 17 turns to wind in the secondary.

The calculation for an output voltage of 24V:

V = 25V
F = 1.4
N = ?
N = 25 * 1.4
N = 35 Turns

For 24V output, we have 37 turns to wind in the secondary.

The good thing is that with the formula, we can calculate any voltage we want to get at the output of our switching power supply.

Switched Power Supply SMPS 13.8V 10A using IR2153 IC and IRF840, with PCB

Electronic Circuits Circuits to Assemble , power supply

13.8V-SMPS-Power-Supply-Using-IR2153-IC-and-IRF840-Mosfet

Switched Power Supply SMPS 13.8V 10A using IR2153 IC and IRF840, with PCB

This circuit is a straightforward design for an SMPS power supply, utilizing the IR2153 IC. This chip, which has only 8 pins, functions as a PWM controller, enabling the creation of a high-performing and cost-effective unregulated switching power supply for basic projects.

The output voltage of this power supply is set at 13.8V and can be adjusted via the trimpot RV1. It also provides a steady current of 10A at its output.

The Circuit

The circuit basically consists of 8 main steps:

Protection Circuit: It comprises a 5A/250V fuse, which operates if there is a current greater than the fuse's breaking current.
At the same time we also have an NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient), it is a surge current limiter, this same topology can be found in most SMPS power supplies, such as notebook power supplies, PC power supplies, computer AT / ATX power supplies, etc.
Transient Filter: This step consists of an initial capacitive filter that inhibits high frequencies from returning to the network, or vice versa, and soon after, the EMI filter coil, which serves to attenuate high frequency noise.
Primary Rectification: Made up of the D1 rectifier bridge.
Primary Filter: Composed of capacitors C4 and C5.
Switching: Composed of a PWM generator, and the IRF840 power MOSFETS transistors.
Transformer: The transformer is a high-frequency Chopper Trafo, and it performs the isolation and high-frequency transformation of the signal generated by the PWM set and switching transistors.
Fast Rectification: Formed by diode D3, this is a fast and double diode, since the oscillated frequency in the circuit is quite high.
Output filter: Composed of inductor L2 and capacitor C9.

Caution

This circuit works directly connected to the electrical network, this is extremely dangerous, any carelessness, or wrong connections, design error, or any other occasion, can lead to irreversible damage.

The PWM Circuit

The power supply for the IR2153 IC comes through a 27K 5W power-limiting resistor together with the C5 capacitor. In the internal package of this IC, there is already a 15.6V Zener diode, which stabilizes this voltage, but the current is low.

So, be careful not to put the resistor R3 with a smaller resistance, as it would increase the current at the input of the IC, and the Zener could break and consequently burn the IC.

An improved solution would be to put a 15V Zener diode to ensure voltage stabilization and IC protection, which you can be doing if you wish.

If you are using the IR2153D, there is no need to use the D2 diode which is the FR107 or BA159, as this IC already has this diode internally, if it is the IR2153 “without the letter D”, leave it as it is in the schematic, “ with diode D2”.

The complete schematic diagram is displayed just below in Figure 2, both the diagram and the materials are available for download at the link below.

Figure-2-Schematic-Diagram-SMPS-13.8V-10A-power-supply

The Transformer

The TR1 transformer was taken from a scrap ATX power supply, the model is the IE-35A, but you can be using practically any model of ATX power supply Trafo.

There is no need to rewind the transformer, just pay attention to the Pinout that we will use for the Trafo, as shown in Figure 3 below.

Fig.3-ATX-power-supply-Trafo-wire-connection-diagram

The Trafo model used was the EI-35A, but we can also use any other AT or ATX power supply that has the same standards, such as models EI-33, ER35, TM3341101QC, ERL35, EI28, etc., as shown in Figure 4 below.

Fig.4-ATX-power -supply-transformer-model-EI-35A

The L1 inductor is the same used in the ATX power supply, we removed it and didn't make any changes, and the L2 inductor, from the output EMI filter.

You can also use the AT/ATX power supply scrap, but if you want to wind your own filter, you can wind it on a Ferrite Toroidal core.

The winding must be carried out using a Toroidal core winding, with the coil using 0.6 mm super-enamelled copper wire with 25 turns.

Automatic Programmable 4.2V Battery Charge, Current up to 500mA using LTH7R IC with PCB

Electronic Circuits Battery Charger , Circuits to Assemble

The LTH7R IC is a constant current or constant voltage base charger chip, mainly used for single cell lithium battery charging.

No external sensing resistor is needed, it has its internal power MOSFET structure, so no external reverse diode is needed.

The LTH7R IC has under temperature protection and control, it adjusts the charging current automatically to limit high temperature on the chip.

Its charging voltage is fixed at 4.2V, and the charging current can be adjusted by an external resistor.

When the float voltage is reached and the charging current drops to 1/10 of the defined circuit, the LTH7R IC automatically completes the charging process.

When the input source voltage is removed, the LTH7R IC automatically enters low current mode, drawing less than 2uA from the battery.

You may be interested in:

When the LTH7R IC enters standby mode, the supply current is less than 25uA. The LTH7R IC can also monitor charging current, has the features of voltage detection, auto-cycle charging, and has an indicator pin to indicate end-of-charge status and input voltage status.

Features

Programmable charging current up to 500mA
No need for external MOSFET, sensing resistor, reverse diode
Constant current or constant voltage mode operation, with thermal protection function Preset charging voltage
Standby current is 20uA
2.9V slow charge voltage
Soft start limits the inrush current
Adopt SOT23-5 package, application line

Product application

Microphone Battery
Light Camera
Mobile Phones, PDAs, MP3 players
Bluetooth headsets

External programming of the load current:

PROG (pin 5): Constant current load current setting and load current monitoring terminal. The load current can be programmed by connecting an external resistor from the PROG pin to ground.

In the pre-charge phase, the voltage of this pin is modulated by 0.1V; in the constant current charging stage, the voltage of this pin is fixed at 1V.

In all charging state modes, measuring the voltage of this pin can estimate the charging current according to the following formula:

General Formula:

I_bat = 1000 / R_prog

To use, for example, in a charger whose required current is 300mA, we can use the formula as follows:

I_bat = 1000/ R_prog
R_prog = 1000 / I_bat
R_prog = 1000 / 300
R_Prog = 3.3K

To use, for example, in a charger whose current required is the maximum current, 500mA, we can use the formula as follows:

I_bat = 1000/ R_prog
R_prog = 1000 / I_bat
R_prog = 1000 / 500
R_Prog = 2K

We leave just below a small table ready with five models with the standard currents for the battery charger.

Model	R_prog	I_bat
1	10K	100mA
2	5K	200mA
3	3,3K	300mA
4	2,5K	400mA
5	2K	500mA

The Circuit Schematic

In Figure 2, below, we can see the schematic diagram of the Automatic Programmable 4.2V Battery Charge, Current up to 500mA using LTH7R IC.

All circuit components are SMD, the power supply input is done by soldering on the PCB. This type of miniaturized SMD circuit is great to be implemented in circuits with small spaces.

The capacitors are SMD electrolytic, but if you have tantalum capacitors, you can put them on, it will help with the plate height, but if you can't find them, you can use electrolytic.

The charger circuit supports voltage between 4.4V to 7V, the recommended is 5V, which is great news for us to be able to charge our battery in a PC USB port or even with cell phone chargers.

5A, 1.22V to 26V, 500kHz Step-Down Converter Using RT8289 IC with PCB

Electronic Circuits Circuits to Assemble , Electronic Circuits

Fig. 1 - 5A, 1.22V to 26V, 500kHz Step-Down Converter Using RT8289 IC with PCB

This is a DC-DC 5A, 1.22V to 26V, 500kHz Step-Down Converter Using RT8289 IC, it works with a Step-Down conversion system.

This powerful chip manages to work with very few external components and provides a preset voltage between 1.22V to 26V, with 5 Amps of output current.

General IC Description

The RT8289 is a step-down regulator with an internal Power MOSFET. It achieves 5A of continuous output current over a wide input supply range with excellent load and line regulation.

Current mode operation provides fast transient response and eases loop stabilization. The RT8289 provides protections such as cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown.

In shutdown mode, the regulator draws 25A of supply current. The RT8289 requires a minimum number of external components, to provide a compact solution. The RT8289 is available in a SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) package.

Features

High Output Current up to 5A
Internal Soft-Start
100mΩ Internal Power MOSFET Switch
Internal Compensation Minimizes External Parts Count
High Efficiency up to 90%
25μA Shutdown Current
Fixed 500kHz Frequency
Thermal Shutdown Protection
Cycle-by-Cycle Over Current Protection
Wide 5.5V to 32V Operating Input Range
Adjustable Output Voltage from 1.222V to 26V
Available in an SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) Package
RoHS Compliant and Halogen Free

Output Voltage Setting

To define the output voltage, we use a voltage divider formed by 2 resistors, R1 and R2, this allows the FB pin of the integrated circuit to detect changes in the output voltage, and recalibrate the circuit keeping it stabilized.

To set this output voltage, we can calculate the external resistive divider, according to the equation formulated below:

VOUT = VREF *(1 + (R1/R2))

Where VREF is the reference voltage (type 1.222V).
Where R1 = 10kΩ.

We exemplify in our circuit, the voltage divider is formed by R1 and R2.

General Formula:

VOUT = VREF *(1 + R1/R2)
Where VREF is the reference voltage (type 1.222V).
Where R1 = 10kΩ.

For a 3.3V output, our formula would look like:

Vout = 1,222 * (1+ (10/5.8))
Vout = 3.328V

For a 5V output, our formula would look like:

Vout = 1,222 * (1+ (10/3.16))
Vout = 5,089V

For a 9V output, our formula would look like:

Vout = 1,222 * (1+ (10/1.57))
Vout = 9,005V

For a 12V output, our formula would look like:

Vout = 1,222 * (1+ (10/1.13))
Vout = 12,036V

For a 26V output, our formula would look like:

Vout = 1,222 * (1+ (10/0.493))
Vout = 26,009V

We may be using a trimpot instead of R2, this allows you to vary the output voltage through the Trimpot.

The Circuit Schematic

In Figure 2, below, we can see the schematic diagram of the Low Noise and High Frequency 5A DC-DC Step-Down Converter.

All circuit components are SMD, except the terminal blocks, “optional”, you can solder directly to the board. This type of SMD circuit is great to be implemented in miniaturized circuits.

It is preferable to use tantalum capacitors, but if you cannot find them, electrolytic capacitors can be used, but for more sensitive circuits, we recommend using tantalum.

The DC-DC converter supports input from 5.5V to 32V, and at the output it maintains the preset voltage completely stabilized.

Electronic Resistive Load - 50A Power Supply Test with PCB

Electronic Circuits Circuits to Assemble , Electronic Circuits

Fig. 1 - Electronic Resistive Load - 50A Power Supply Test with PCB

You know that moment when you have a power supply to fix, you do the service and the supply works, but you don't know if it will support a large load?

I came across a problem like this, and I decided to make my own resistive electronic load, and share it with our subscribers, and for you who visit us, welcome!

The circuit

The circuit is quite simple, with few components and easy to assemble, based on two power transistors Mosfet N-channel, IRL44N connected in parallel.

The circuit is capable of withstanding an initial load “for low voltage sources 4V” of 40A, and for voltage above 5V, the current is 50A, supporting voltages up to 45V.

This voltage is received and transformed into heat, and the consumption current is controlled by means of a potentiometer.

Transistor Description

Fifth Generation HEXFETs from International Rectifier utilize advanced processing techniques to achieve the lowest possible on-resistance per silicon area.

This benefit, combined with the fast switching speed and ruggedized device design that HEXFET Power MOSFETs are well known for, provides the designer with an extremely efficient device for use in a wide variety of applications.

The TO-220 package is universally preferred for all commercial-industrial applications at power dissipation levels to approximately 50 watts.

The low thermal resistance and low package cost of the TO-220 contribute to its wide acceptance throughout the industry.

How it works

When turning on the electronic resistive load, a current passes through the Drain and Source taps, and this current flow is controlled by the Mosfet Gate.

For this control to happen properly, a stabilized voltage is needed at that point, which is done through the resistor R1, current limiting, in series with the zener diode, which stabilizes the voltage at the Gate.

This stabilized voltage ensures that the current not be variable when the input voltage undergoes some variation.

This stabilized voltage point is controlled by the potentiometer P1, which adjusts the voltage at the Gate of the Mosfet according to the required current.

It is worth remembering that the transistor used is a logic-type IRL44N Mosfet, not the well-known IRF44N.

They differ in relation to the gate voltage, as the logic-type Mosfet triggers the Gate with low Vgs voltages from 4V, and the IRF44N does not work with such low voltages, the minimum Vgs is 7V.

The Circuit

The schematic diagram of the Electronic Resistive Load - Power Supply Test!, is shown in Figure 2 below, it is a simple circuit to assemble, there are few external components to solder, however it is a circuit of great quality and stability.

2.5KM FM transmitter, using transistor 2N3866 with PCB

Electronic Circuits Circuits to Assemble , Electronic Circuits

Fig. 1 - 2.5KM FM transmitter, using transistor 2N3866 with PCB

This is a simple FM transmitter, with great range, being able to reach more than 2.5 km of distance, using a suitable antenna, powered by a power supply or a 12Vdc battery.

The circuit has a frequency range that can be tuned between 88 and 108 MHz, and is quite stable, and can be used for small audio transmission links, or as community radio, and with great audio quality.

The Transmitter

The FM - Frequency Modulated transmitter circuit is a wireless device that operates in a high frequency range.

It can transmit audio signals to the atmosphere through electromagnetic waves, and can be received by an FM receiver circuit tuned to the same frequency as the transmitter, to reproduce signals from; songs, voice, musical instruments, etc. on the FM receiver.

ATTENTION!

For each Country, Region, State... There are Laws on broadcasting, telecommunications, audio and video transmission, etc.

Do not use telecommunications equipment without authorization from the entities responsible for transmitting Radio Frequencies.

Electronic Circuits teaches electronics applied to various segments, with the aim of improving knowledge, we do not support or take responsibility for any type of illegal operation.

For any operation with RF, we recommend looking for the competent regulatory agencies, seeking certification and/or legalization.

Characteristics!

High sensitivity of audio pickup
12V to 16Vdc supply voltage
Simple circuit to assemble
Great range, about 2.5km
Easy assembly

Circuit Operation

The circuit uses two RF transistors; Q1 2N2218 used as RF oscillator, and transistor Q2 2N3866, used for power stage.

The decouple electrolytic capacitor C1, receives the audio signal, who comes from a signal source, which can be a soundboard, a USB audio card, a musical instrument, or any other signal source.

This modulated signal is sent to the base of transistor Q1, it works as an oscillator circuit, the trimmer VC1 in parallel with the coil L1, adjusts the circuit operating frequency.

Transistor Q2 works as the power stage of the transmitter, it amplifies the RF signal generated by Q1, and sends it to the output, composed by the antenna.

Trimmers VC2 and VC3 connected to the antenna, adjust the impedance of the antenna coupled to the output, which we must adjust for better impedance matching, and to obtain the best signal at the output.

Applications!

Audio transmitter
Audio link for instruments
Wireless microphones
Spy Microphone
Homemade FM radio

Schematic diagram

The schematic diagram of the 2.5 km FM Transmitter is in Figure 2 below. As we can see, it is a very simple circuit, however, it is not recommended for those who have no experience with electronic circuit assembly.

It is recommended to mount this circuit in a metal box, if you do not have a metal box, glue aluminum foil on the walls of the box to shield the entire circuit from external interference.

Fig. 2 - Schematic 2.5KM FM transmitter, using transistor 2N3866

Circuit Adjustments

The transmitter frequency adjustment, is regulated through the CV1 trimmer, and the CV2 and CV3 trimmers, to regulate the antenna impedance matching, must be done with patience for a better use.

The coil L1, L2 and L3 must be made with enameled wire 22 AWG of 1 cm in diameter with air core, the number of turns is described in the component list.

L4 is a 10uH RF shock, and you could be building your own RF shock by winding 15 vols of thin enamel wire around a 1MΩ resistor, soldering to both ends of the copper wire, at each end of the resistor.

The antenna can be a length of rigid wire between 20 and 50 cm for short ranges, or use a 1/2 wave dipole antenna for long ranges.

The Power Supply

The power source can be from 12Vdc to 16Vdc, if a power supply is used, well filtered sources must be used, due to the sensitivity of the circuit.

Don't use large wires, always use short wires, and shield the transmitter circuit source. The current consumed by the circuit is around 120mA when powered by 12V, and 400mA when powered by 16V.
