SOURCESYMMETRICAL – ADJUSTABLE SOURCE
objectives
Check and verify the operation of the physical elements used for the
practice, in order to become familiar with electronic devices.
Understand the operation of a variable voltage source in the laboratory and analyze
the results obtained with the multimeter.
INTRODUCTION:
Thealternating currentit is the most used today because of its easedistribution, but many of the
The electronic components we use require direct current for their operation. It is
therefore the source of is necessarynutritionA variable voltage source with the LM317T
it is an ideal voltage source for people who need a variable voltage output (1.5 V to
15.0 Volts) with delivery capacity ofdirect currentof up to 1.5 Amperes. This
the device has overcurrent protection that prevents the integrated circuit from accidentally burning out
due to a short circuit.
In principle, the circuit of a symmetrical dual power supply is in the LM317 datasheet, however a
The simplest circuit is the one shown, considering that the LM317 is a positive adjustable regulator.
and the LM337 is a negative variable regulator, these regulators are based on an exact regulator of
1.2 volts to which a voltage feedback through divider resistors can be applied.
to increase the value. This circuit is designed to vary from 1.2 volts to 15 volts very
close to the values you want, this is because the output of the transformer is from zero to 30 volts
through the center tap, it distributes 15 volts positive and 15 volts negative (30 volts peak to
If we wanted to have 18 volts positive and negative we would need a 36 transformer.
volts with a central tap would give us the 18 positives and negatives, this is not entirely
exactly as we will see in the analysis but it is an approximation, because every regulator needs a
greater voltage margin to provide a regulated voltage that is lower than the unregulated supply

CONCLUSIONS
We understood that a transformer is used when we need to power devices that
they operate with a voltage different from that of the electrical grid, and they can also be obtained
better results in a practice of this type.
We understood how an LM79XX integrated circuit outputs negative voltages and
we check their values using the multimeter.
