6 volts to 12 volts converters

This inverter circuit can provide up to 800mA of 12V power

from a 6V supply. For example, you could run 12V car accessories in a 6V
car. The circuit is simple, about 75% efficient and quite useful. By changing
just a few components, you can also modify it for different voltages.

This 6V to 12V converter circuit is made with an IC from SGS

with several additional components. The IC is a TDA2003 but it can

be replaced with a TDA2002.

The cost of building the 6volts to 12 volts converter should be low enough to
justify constructing it instead of modifying the entire equipment setup to

work directly with a 6 volts power supply. The two principles of simplicity and
functions properly without the need of the transformer.

This 6V to 12V dc-dc boost converter can drive a load in 12V

about 3A current.The 555 timer IC is operated in astable mode, generates

about 29Khz frequency of about 54% duty cycle drives the input of TIP41C

converter.LED and 1.5Kohm resistor serves as indicator and load for output
stability when no load is connected.You can add a 12V zener diode
(1N5242B)across output to ground for further output stability.

I think these ideas are simple, some of the responses are laughable like a 2 phase
being three phase?? FETS are amazing and can do much more then standard

transistors with much less size, guess why? They are harder to break at maximum
conductance. Why not use FETs to design a sine wave circuit with high current
capacity? I will design one using my imagination soon.

Sir,

Please help me about this matter,I have a 6 volt battery charger,using an ic 7806. my
question is: if i replace the 7806 with 7812 will it work to have a 12v dc output?

Dear Sir,

I am willing to dc to dc convertor which input will be 12vdc and output will be 5v,6v,9v
and 12vdc. and all this 4 output should work on the same time.

New I need help is there anyone will do faverme/helpme making this power suply.
waiting for reply thankyou in advance.
Reagards,

Taibani Imran.
