    Recommendations for adjusting (rectification or voltage dividing etc..) the output of a 350VDC SMPS?

    Hello, I seldom have to work with high voltage/high power hardware, so I am looking for the safest low-cost approach. I am working with a TI Evalution Board/Reference Design for a Voltage Source Inverter. It requires a 350-400 VDC input (1.7A). My main objective or focus is on the firmware...

    LM317 no reference voltage

    Hello all, This is my first post so forgive me if I break any rules, I am trying to create a variable voltage power supply using an lm317 but am running into problems. For starters, it doesn't seem that I have a vref voltage, when probed I get 0 volts across input and adjust. My second problem...
