Overview
Product Description
While power sources such as 9V and AA batteries can be used to power some kits directly not every kit can handle these unregulated voltages. For example, any kit with an active buzzer requires a 5V source and some other kits (such as the M602 Door Bell) can only handle up to 4V! Generating these voltages can be cumbersome and any project that requires more than a single 5V source may prove challenging. This is where the Simple Power Supply comes in! This kit is directly powered from a 9V battery and provides many different outputs including
9V Out -9V (approx) 5V Out 3.3V Out
This kit generates the 3.3V with the use of the AMS1117 which is an SMD part. However, this is a very easy component to solder (arguably one of the easiest SMD parts to solder) and can provide great soldering practice for surface mount devices!

Applications
- The Simple Power Supply is an ideal first kit to get if other MitchElectronics kits are to be used (as many other kits require a 5V or 3V source). The Simple Power Supply is also ideal for students who need to practice soldering as well as understand how power circuits work. Furthermore, the mounting holes on the Simple Power Supply combined with the various outputs makes this kit ideal for use with DT projects that combine multiple elements including circuit construction, enclosure design, and crafting in order to create a small safe power supply.
- Education and training – Useful for teaching linear voltage regulation, positive and negative rails and charge-pump or inverter stages, while providing practical experience with through-hole soldering, component identification and PCB assembly.
- Project integration – Suitable for projects such as Bench Power Supply, Portable Power Supply, Classroom Demonstrator, and other designs where the following function is useful: Multi-rail power-supply kit providing several useful project voltages from a single source
