Schematic

Open project folder on GitHub

Demonstrates a rectifier feeding an NPN pass regulator.

Circuit Summary

Rectified DC is smoothed and regulated by an NPN pass transistor stage.

Expected Behavior

  • Output voltage stabilizes with reduced ripple.

How To Run

  1. Open Rectifier-4D-Regulator-NPN.kicad_sch in KiCad.
  2. Click Simulate and run the configured analyses.
  3. Add probes to the key nodes to view the expected behavior.

Notes

  • Observe regulation limits at higher load currents.
