I'm trying to control several computer fans. I have a reference circuit, but it is only capable of 5W. I plan on having 8 fans, and they all need about 5W each.
Is there a circuit similar to a LM317 voltage regulator that I could build to get what I'm after? I don't mind a simple linear regulator and can build a heatsink I'm sure I'll need. The only thing I care about is that the fans all run the same speed, based on the input voltage.
I honestly have no idea what something like this would be called.
Thanks in advance!
