1 DC Motor Regulator Project

Simple DC motor regulator circuit based on LM1014IC. What this IC does is it maintains the motor speed on both loaded and unloaded by simply sensing the current drawn by the motor. As the motor is loaded, it draws more current; in that case the IC will supply higher voltage to maintain its speed. Closing switch SW stops the motor.

  1. The LM1014 is obsolete. Can you recommend a replacement?
