Hello,
I would like to make one of the simple variable power supplies based off the LM317 (or similar) voltage regulator. While the circuit for this is trivial, I would also like to have an LCD screen (or even a seven segment LED) display the voltage and current. Any suggestions on how to go about accomplishing this?
It seems to me that this might be a complex project but you guys seem to come up with simple solutions to complex problems all the time
so I am posting this here to see what feedback I can get from you.
Oh and btw, I would not require much voltage nor current from this supply. It would be 1.5V-12V and up to 2amps (could be 1.5A... doesn't really matter since this is just for hobby circuit making).
Thank you for your input.
