The following circuit is designed for filtering 15 volt supplies like those typically found in instrumentation. The shunt will greatly reduce white noise, spurious signals, and line-related signals on the power supply; the attenuation can exceed 40 dB with careful construction. The values are not critical except that the gain of the amplifier should be [...]

Let’s start analyzing the circuit in idle condition, when the engine is stopped. The battery voltage at B+ cannot pass to D+, because D1 blocks it. D+ is at ground level, because of the low resistance of the dynamo between D+ and D-. Q1 is biased off, which leaves the negative side of the entire [...]

Here is the schematic diagram of my regulator. You may want to print it out, and then go on reading. This regulator is designed for 12V systems employing panels of up to 7A total current, and loads of not over 20A. It can be easily modified for greater currents.
U1A compares an adjustable sample of the [...]
