I'm building the following variable output DC power supply for a school project.
http://www.electronics-tutorials.com/basics/power-supp-variable.htm
I've checked all my capacitor & resistor values but my output LOADED is between 6V & 24V. And even with a linear pot I see a sharp jump in output voltage between 6V & 18V. Several other students have looked at my circuit and they beleive it is contected correctly but who knows for sure.
Any ideas on what to check?
Thanks for any help!
