Which does not fully correspond to what was declared, perhaps due to the purpose of the

power supply...

30 seconds later it was all over. Specifically, it is a transformer, a diode bridge, a pair of
resistors and an output transistor.
- If the output transistor fails (due to overheating), 22V can go to the load.
- Without special overloads, a couple of output transistors burned out, 2SB647A flew. In
general, in such inclusion, it is not a very good solution, the main one did not work well.

Improvements:
— 2SB647A replaced by KT816B.
- The 0.1 Ohm 5 W resistor was replaced with a nichrome wire. It is designed to measure
current.
— 150 Ohm 2 W resistor replaced by 390 Ohm 2 W.
- Replacing resistors to obtain other fixed voltages. Set fixed voltages: 1.5V; 3.3V; 5V; 9V
and 12V.
- Replaced the transformer with a laptop power supply. At the same time, I solved the
problem with the diode bridge.
- I put the output transistor on the radiator.
Regarding the power supply of the measurement plate. There is a rectifier diode and a
stabilizer made in 78L05. The recommended input voltage for the 78L05 is +7 to +20 V, so
everything is within tolerance.

For repairs and experiments with electronic equipment, a power supply is required. I have
a good one (I took it in the 90s): two independent outputs: for U = from 0 to 30 V and
protection for I = from 0 to 3 A. It's good for everyone, BUT heavy and BIG. For the house I
want something comfortable and small (and not too expensive). I liked the little Chinese
YaXun PS-1502DD +.

Today, the market is saturated with a variety of Chinese-made laboratory PSUs of various
modifications, with various operating parameters and services. However, the cost of
models with attractive parameters and capabilities is quite high, and many radio amateurs
prefer to make such devices with their own hands, which often look and work just as well
as industrial models of a similar class, but are much cheaper to manufacture. . But it is one
thing to develop and assemble an electronic unit, another thing is to make a case with a
decent design, which requires a certain amount of time, experience and skill in the
production of mechanical work. There is also a compromise option: order the manufacture
of the box or purchase a suitable "box" in retail. But personally, neither the first nor the
second of the options suited me: for the first - there is no time and place to tinker with a file,
the second also disappears due to the high cost (both per order and retail) of cases from
acceptable quality and necessary design. The third option turned out to be the most
attractive - purchasing an inexpensive copy of a laboratory power supply in one of the
online stores in order to refine it to the level of a device with the necessary parameters for
my needs. Such an instance turned out to be an LBP with the name YG-1502DD (Fig. 1). -

The parameters of this LBP are printed in the name: output voltage - from 0 to 15V, output
current - up to 2A. Service functions: 1. adjustment of trigger protection operation in current
from 0.6 to 2A; 2. 5 fixed output voltage values switch. Of the benefits: 1. good design; 2.
indication of output parameters (current, voltage); 3. a good basic schematic diagram that
allows minimal constructive intervention for refinement; 4. Low overall price for these
advantages; 5. Sufficiently accurate digital indication of current and voltage; 6. Compact
body with enough internal volume for my purposes. Everything else is negative: 1. a low-
power step-down transformer that "fails" the voltage at the LBP output at parameters close
to the maximum; 2. The display board controller flashes in such a way that the ammeter
indication freezes at 2.55 A at a current greater than this value, and the voltmeter indication
"resets" at a voltage level greater than 25, 5V; 3. a two-color LED "accompanies" the work
of the LBP with a red glow, the operation of the protection "greets" with green; 4.
Component position designations on the LBP board are mostly replaced by denomination
designations; 5. "One-time" threading of the threaded connections of the body; 6. symbolic
cooling of the regulation transistor; 7. Thin connecting conductors from the board to the
control transistor, from the board to the output terminals, thin cores of the network cable.
All these advantages, as well as disadvantages, are inherent in all, without exception, all
LBPs that I bought at once (including incorrect wiring of a two-color LED). Also, judging by
the reviews and discussions on the forums about THIS and other LBPs with the inscription
1502 (regardless of the letter prefix), these models are assembled from the same set of
components and have only minor differences in design and diagram of circuit. Therefore, I
knew most of the shortcomings beforehand and it suited me very well.

The parameters and service I would like to receive from the modified YG-1502DD: 1. The
ability to supply a sufficiently high voltage to the input of the LBP; 2. voltage regulation in
the range of 0 to 35-60V; 3. output current up to 5A; 4. small waves within overlapping
ranges of current and voltage; 5. Current limit setting from 0 to maximum; 6. adjustable trip
current protection; 7. Overheat protection.

shown in Fig. 3

Fig.3 Schematic diagram of YG-1502DD

Note. The schematic diagram of YG-1502DD, due to the lack of most reference
designations on the board, was replaced by the author with his own, marked in red font for
ease of description. The same designations are also present on the modified diagram,
where the graphic symbols of the components added to the diagram are red.

The "core" of the LBP circuit is the LM723 chip (U2 in the circuit), which has been
produced since 1972 and has proven its versatility, reliability and low cost over a long time
of existence. The interior of the microcircuit contains a precision reference voltage source,
an error amplifier and a current limiter. It is capable of working, thanks to the built-in power
stabilizer, in the range of 9.5 to 40V with an output control current of up to 150mA and is
designed for use in voltage regulators with a current of up to 10A at a voltage of input of up
to 40V and an output of 2-37V (according to the recommendations and diagrams of the
manufacturer's official documentation). In the YG-1502DD circuit, the capabilities of the
microcircuit are not fully used (the current limiter is not involved), but there is an adjustable
activation latch on the transistors VT1, VT2 (of various structures), prohibiting the operation
of the microcircuit U2 on pin 13 (output of the error amplifier) through diode D11, blocking
the output transistor of the microcircuit. As a result, the termination of the current in the
R15 circuit, the base-emitter VT4 (with the blocking of this transistor), the base-emitter of a
powerful regulator transistor VT5 (with the blocking of the transistor), the complete absence
of voltage at the LBP output (+ Out). The latch, in turn, is controlled by a pair of operational
amplifiers from the U3 chip, the first of which (U3.2) monitors the voltage on the current
sensor (resistor R18), amplifies it by supplying its own voltage. output to the input of the
ammeter and to the input of the second operational amplifier (U3.1), directly controlling the
latch through a regulator (R30), which changes the level of the reference voltage at the
inverting input of this operational amplifier. With the help of the R28 trimmer, the
adjustment range of the latch drive is selected. Latch actuation is indicated by LED HL1.1
(red). In this case, LED HL1.2 (green) is biased by the resistors of the open transitions of
the latch transistors, resistor R17 and LED HL1.1. The sum of the voltage drops in this
circuit is not enough to make the green LED glow due to the relatively large value of
resistor R2, which limits the HL1.2 glow current. Thanks to the selected values of resistors
R35-R39, the readings of the ammeter (which actually has no combination with a pair of
operational amplifiers, a voltmeter) are numerically equal to the value of the load current.
An adjustable voltage is supplied to the direct input of the error amplifier (pin 5) of the U2
microcircuit from an additional reference voltage source (+ 5V) made on an adjustable
zener diode TL431 (VZ1). VZ1 is powered by a reference voltage source built into U2
(+7.2V). Why this is done is not very clear, because. integrated into the ION chip is
completely self-sufficient. With the extreme "right" position of the switch (fully clockwise),
the LBP function regulated by the 0 to + 15V output is selected. At the same time, for the 5
U2 output, the voltage divider R54, R40 (soft voltage regulator), R41 (coarse voltage
regulator) is relevant. All of the above switch positions create fixed voltages +1.5, +3.6V,
+4.8V, +6V, +7.2V at the LBP output. These values are selected by the resistances of
resistors R22-R31. The reverse input of the error amplifier monitors the output voltage
through a divider between resistors R10, R13, R9. U2 is powered by rectifier D1 through
diode D2 with +24V. From the same diode, voltage is supplied to the collector of the
regulator transistor VT5. The integrated regulator L7812 (U1) is a power supply only for the
latch circuit and the operational amplifier U3 (LM358). Resistor R14 dampens possible
excess power at U1, which operates without a heat sink with little or no heating. Resistor
R17 creates an initial charge on the LBP output. The voltmeter displays the output voltage
value and its input is connected to the positive output terminal through resistor R32, which
is the only trimmer for the display unit. The display unit itself is powered by alternating
voltage. which is the only tuning element for the display unit. The display unit itself is
powered by alternating voltage. which is the only tuning element for the display unit. The
display unit itself is powered by alternating voltage.

10V from a separate transformer winding. Thus, the indication unit is practically decoupled
from any of the LBP buses and, if necessary, by switching, the indication unit can also be
used for external measurements.

Fig.4 Schematic diagram of modified YG-1502DD

Refinement. The schematic of the modified LBP is shown in Fig.4.

Changes and additions made to the scheme:


 Instead of a regular low-power transformer (power: no more than 25 W), a toroidal
transformer with a power of 200 W / 2X16.5V / 5A was installed.
 As noted above, the modified LBP must operate in the range of increased input and output
voltages. To do this, an additional transistor (VT3) was introduced into the circuit between
R15 and the base of the transistor VT4, and the resistance of the resistor R15 was
increased to 5.1 kOhm. At the same time, the U2 microcircuit was connected with its
supply terminal (12) to the output of the U1 stabilizer. Thus, the power supply of the U2
chip was +12V, which made its operation completely safe, regardless of the input voltage
(+In).
 The integrated regulator U1 was also disconnected from the input voltage and connected
to the midpoint of the "new" transformer, whose voltage is half (+23 V) of the full rectified
voltage (+46 V) relative to the negative lead of the rectifier.
 Diode D2 was removed as unnecessary and replaced with a jumper.
 Minimal changes were also made to the latch assembly on transistors VT1, VT2,
expanding the capabilities of the LBP.
 A fixed button, when the contacts of which the base-emitter transition of the VT2 transistor
is closed, the current limiting mode is entered, excluding the opening of VT2 and, as a
result, the blocking mode, allowing for adjustment smooth output current;
 R5 was replaced with a nominal value of 100 kΩ, and resistor R7 was replaced with a
jumper, which made it possible to expand the current adjustment range from 1 mA to the
maximum value (in this case, to the maximum possible ammeter readings - 2.55 TO) ;
 Capacitor C3 was removed, leading the LBP to relax into current limiting mode (node at
VT1, VT2 switched to generation mode);
 The HL1 LED was soldered, initially poorly soldered;
 Diode D11, which provides control of output 13 U2 when current protection is activated,
was removed, and the current protection/limiting unit began to control the base of the newly
introduced transistor VT3 connected to emitter VT2 (although this change in particular is
not important and could not have been presented).
 A bimetallic thermal switch with normally open contacts and a response temperature of 70
°C was connected to terminal 13 U2 relative to the negative power cable;
 In the changeover process, the fixed voltage switching node was also removed as
unnecessary, an additional ION on VZ1.
 Resistor R54 was bypassed with a 3.3 kΩ resistor to change the output voltage range.
 The VT4 transistor has been replaced by the 2SA1023 transistor.
 The existing bridge rectifier was removed from the board and the new one was moved off
the board and installed on the heatsink.
 That's it for the changes to the dashboard. The powerful control transistor (VT5) was
replaced by a pair of 2SD1047 transistors, connected in parallel and installed on a common
radiator with a diode bridge, which, in turn, was screwed to the bottom of the base of the
control case. metal. 5 sockets were installed on the front panel of the LBP (instead of 3
regular "lambs"), to which, in addition to the LBP output ("+" / "-"), the input voltages "+
23V" were rectified /"0"/"-23V" were issued."
 As a result, with the LBP parameters, due to an inferior indication, I had to make some
compromise:
 Rectified input voltage. +46V
 Output voltage - 0. +36V (indicated value 0-25.5V)
 Smooth adjustment range is +/-30% of full scale
 Output current with limit or trip cutoff 1mA. 2.55A
 overheat protection
 Measured ripple 100 Hz at a current of 2.5 A in the voltage range 10-36 V - 5-12 mV
