From the project

The Desktop Power Supply is a compact workshop power supply based on the popular and reliable LM317 linear voltage regulator.

The Desktop Power Supply is a compact workshop power supply based on the popular and reliable LM317 linear voltage regulator.

This project was created to provide a simple, cheap, and convenient power source with adjustable voltage, perfect for breadboard prototyping and testing small electronic circuits. The whole device was designed to take up as little space on the desk as possible, while offering everything necessary for the daily work of a hobbyist and engineer.
