Since you can make a two terminal current source with a LM317 you could just put two in series to extend the voltage range.
(See Irving's example here:http://www.mycncuk.com/forums/attach...5&d=1247335598)
Be careful you don't exceed the chips power rating (i.e. check data sheet for maximum simultaneous voltage drop & current)
[edit] just saw this
I am going to be running 3 stepper motors in unipolor, so I am going to need 2 LM317HV's per stepper motor.Last edited by BillTodd; 12-07-2009 at 02:58 PM.
