Simple DIY Linear PSU

<< < (6/26) > >>

Also it has no BAT85, so I put BAT42. It 's the D5.

Ok, I managed to simulate it!

I use TL072 as for LM358 Proteus has no simulation model.
I 've also replaced D45H11(Q2) with a BD912 because D45H11 has no simulation model.

I power it with a voltage source, 30V.
I put the CV Pot in the middle, CC Pot on the top (max current).
These are the results:
RL=30 Ohm, 0.47A, 14.2V
RL=25 Ohm, 0.57A, 14.2V
RL=20 Ohm, 0.71A, 14.2V
RL=15 Ohm, 0.94A, 14.2V
RL=10 Ohm, 1.40A, 14.0V
RL=5  Ohm, 1.56A   7.8V

Conclusion: It cannot give enough current.

I have uploaded in .pdf (change it to .pdsprj) and in zip format.

The BD912 likely has low current gain. Try a BD138-16 for now.  Most of the BJTs I tested with  had gains of 200 and more.
The D45H11 has unusually high gain for a large BJT.
The voltage at the Base of Q1 should be checked during testing to get an idea of how much total gain the output path has.

It 's not included in Proteus' libraries.

The design on  mike_mike's thread uses a BD244a. Check what the modeled current gain is.
