Hi there, this is my first post on this forum.
I have wanted to build myself a bench power supply from atx power supply for a while now. I dont often need something like that, but i am alway up for learning new stuff, and i see that it may come in very handy.
In my search for this, i came over this product:
http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/atx-breakout-board-bench-power-supply-p-1222.html?cPath=155. It looks like a nice product and almost excact what i want already done for me. Does it look any good to you guys? If i buy that one, i still would like to add a variable output, but i am pretty green at making these kind of circuits, or circuits at all. I would really love if someone helped me with a suggestion how i could get this made, wich parts i need and how to connect it. To explain a bit more, i read that i can use the range between the -12v and the 12v, so the range of the output would be somewhere like 1v to 24v, depends on what parts you use. I also would love to have a display showing volts on this output so i can adjust it easily without measuring it with an external device.
Just to clear a few things up, since I foud this breakoutboard, i wont touch the inside of the PSU. I will make a case to house it all in. Not sure what the case will be yet, but that will come later
Hope i made myself understood ok, English is not my language, but i hope i am good enough in writing it
