Mar 24, 2021 at 10:56 comment added Russell McMahon I've just declined two flags on this discussion. The moderator options are inadequate and "decline" is the best choice of those available. People's concerns, often in opposition, are understood and sometimes there is no perfect solution. The wisdom of Solomon in dealing with people would help but is not always available.
Mar 24, 2021 at 6:35 comment added Sagar Singh @MarcusMüller looks like this form focus more on someone's past. I dont know how is this question related to that question. Unfortunately people like you likes to work like dictator. MAybe you should make this a closed forum where one can post question only after approval from the supreme master
Mar 23, 2021 at 12:49 comment added devnull @MarcusMüller +1 Yes, and the best thing was that it focused on the how to do it properly. The following one (electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/554291/diy-power-supply) also received good feedback. Maybe the specs change further (200, 100, 60...) to something safer.

Mar 21, 2021 at 12:49 comment added Marcus Müller Hm, I wrote a rather lengthy answer to your 200 V variable power supply question. All the same things still apply to 60 V; is it possible that either your accuracy requirements back then were totally out of proportion, or you're really just looking for an easy solution to a hard problem?
Mar 21, 2021 at 12:48 comment added Marcus Müller Does this answer your question? Variable power supply 200V

Mar 20, 2021 at 22:40 comment added TonyM Now you've explained that you just wondered if you could do it and this question is hypothetical with hypothetical circumstances, you can now hypothetically afford some proper regulators. It's far too undetailed so vtc.

Mar 20, 2021 at 22:36 comment added TonyM I appreciate your situation of only having certain parts available, not a nice situation to be in and a predicament often unrecognised. But there's no neat 'multi-stack' solution. Please can you now edit and greatly improve your question, describing in detail the situation you have, your supply and your load. All in lots of detail. Without understanding the load and the power you'll dissipate in it, no-one can understand the power dissipated in the regulator. The better the quality of your question, the better the quality of the answers you will attract.
Mar 20, 2021 at 22:34 comment added user263983 Try NCP785 from ON Semiconductor.
Mar 20, 2021 at 22:34 comment added Justme How much you want output voltage range? As each LM317 goes up to about 40V differential voltage, they could be arranged to drop down from 60V down.
Mar 20, 2021 at 22:32 comment added Bimpelrekkie Indeed no, I also think you need to educate yourself on how to do voltage regulation and what it means. For example: is that 60 V input or output voltage? What is the load current? Why 60 V? First get some experience with those LM317 below 30 V.

Mar 20, 2021 at 22:25 comment added Hearth No, use something rated for 60 volt input.
