Hi all,

I was just wondering if, say I were to parallel-combine two identical, regulated power sources (for the puropse of doubling the current to ~1.5A), would I still have a regulated voltage from both supplies? If not, how may I reregulate it? I've been looking in my trusty book, but aside from using a diode and a choke, I'm not quite sure how. Thanks!

use one regulator and add a power transistor, apparently

and if that url doesnt work due to all that headecimal junk try this messy pathway:
