1.5 to 10 volt inverter

If you need a 5 to 10 volt DC power source and only have a couple AA batteries, here’s a simple solution from CoolCircuits. It uses four transistors and a handful of passive components to produce an adjustable 5 to 10 volt output from 1.5 to 4.5 volt input.

    More details on that choke? Is that “…or 10mH” ? And does that mean 10 millihenries (very large) or 10 microhenries (quite small)? And the “70 turns” would normally need associated dimensions, or if it’s really “on” a 10mH choke, we need to know WHICH 10mH choke.

    The design and layout looked familiar. Originally found on http://talkingelectronics.com/projects/200TrCcts/200TrCcts.html .

    When designs are found posted up in blogs ( and especially when there is an inconsistent schematic design), remember that other peoples work is often used. Sometimes it takes a few clicks and use of google to find the original posting.

    Now that I look at another design http://coolcircuits.blogspot.com/2011/02/uhf-on-vhf-rig.html there is a comment on that posting “You are not adding any value by just reproducing these works. The least you could do is to acknowledge the source.

    ‘UHF on a VHF Rig’ is my original work.”
