Linear PC Fan Speed Controller Stripboard Veroboard Layout


Extremely simple fan speed controller.

the input voltage depends on the fan you're using however the fan I used is a 12 volt fan so mine is powered by a 12 volt power supply.

I made this for a soldering iron fume extractor however it will work for your PC fans too and I plan on using it in mine.



here is a good video by fixitdaz on a very similar circuit
