15V, 1.5A LDO CC/CV Bench Power Supply Circuit With Only One IC - Simple LDO power supply allows adjustment of both voltage and current from zero to maximum.
It's generally desired that a bench supply have both the voltage and current adjustable from zero (or nearly so) to the maximum. An LM317 is often used to make a simple supply but its minimum output voltage is about 1.25V, which complicates controlling the short-circuit current limit, and it has a dropout voltage of around 2-3V depending upon the output current, which reduces its...
