Anyone know of a few good websites that cover the LM317 in detail and has lots of great schematics I can use?

Im in the process of revamping my Power Supply and want to add some variable voltage options to the 12V portion of the computer PSU ... but I need more than a couple of amps to be available, Im looking more for about 20A....

Well the data sheet for the -317 should have a lot of typical, example circuits.  I would start my search there.  Good Luck

Hi,

I second that advice..

You can find the old National Semiconductor datasheet at Jameco here:

https://www.jameco.com/Jameco/Products/ProdDS/898800.pdf

The datasheet is very informative gives quite a few examples including ones with pass transistors for higher current

You can also do a google search for "lm317 Schematic" and view images. There are literally hundreds of results.

 

Hope this helps,

 

Regards
