DIY variable power supply

Introduction

I built this because I needed a lab power supply and all the lab power supplies I could find online were too expensive. This is built with 4 necessary components and the rest is optional.

Supplies.

  • SK-60 or SK-120 buck boost converter (The SK-120 may not fit as I made it for the SK-60)
  • 60 watt usb-c pd power supply (or 120 watt depending on which buck boost converter you have)
  • 4mm banana female plugs
  • Wires

Optional supplies

  • XT-60 connector
  • Any other connector you want to put on it

Equipment

  • soldering iron
  • 3d printer
  • glue gun

Build

If you have everything it is very simple. Everything is marked on the Buck boost converter (SK-60 or SK-120) where the power goes in and where it comes out.

The USB-C PD module is hot glued in. It has held up for 5 months so far inside while being swung around in my backpack. When hot glueing the module in I inserted a usb-c cable inside of it so it would be aligned well.

Tips

  • If you use this design make a cover at the top because otherwise assembly is very difficult.
  • If you use an XT-60 connector make sure that the side with the corner is the ground.
