Hi all,
I need to power up a project of mine with +12v to drive some relays and +5v for the rest of the board.
I am thinking of using a 7812 and a 7805 in series and to add a 500ma fuse just before the 7812.
The actual thing would be something like this:
+15v DC in ---[300ma FUSE]----[ > 1N4004]------[7812]-----[7805]----> +5V
The whole thing seems a little bulky. Do you have any other suggestions?
