 Using the printed circuit board and integrate each of

its components in the same.
SUMMARY
 Implement an adjustable source of 0 to 17 V 1 A.
In this project the construction of an adjustable
voltage source is present. The source was designed
for academic purposes and was built to allow easy 2. MATERIALS AND METHODS
understanding of the operating principle of a voltage
source. The requirements for this source included 2.1. MATERIALS:
portability, modularity, and its construction elements
were commercial.  LM317 voltage regulator.
 LM7805 voltage regulator.
 5K ohm potentiometer.

magnitude to certain types of disturbances that may
affect the system such as load variations , 2.2. PROCESS:
temperature or network up to 10%.

In these cases stabilization and regulation circuits

are required to make the DC voltage to be used is as
constant as possible.

Hence the concept of regulated power source as an

electronic device responsible for supplying a voltage
or current, as stable as possible to the different
elements that are connected to it [1].
I.OVERALL OBJECTIVE
Develop a source with adjustable voltage from certain
basic electronic components.
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES
 Knowing each of the elements used in the
implementation of the source to achieve an optimal
performance of the same.
II. CONCLUSIONS
 The adjustable project is of great importance
because for all projects in electronics is important
to have a power supply and the source besides
being useful has made a very low cost.
 The use of plates or printed circuit makes it easy
to integrate the circuit components as well as
secure them are already soldered to the board,
plus correctable by simply removing the failed
component.
