Would passing the supply through one of these before it enters the input pin of the LM317 effect the performance of the LM317 in any way?
I have implemented my high current adjustable voltage reg with a protective diode on the input but it appears that it is causing the voltage from the reg to waver a bit around my target voltage.
Shorting the diode appears to improve matters.
I was trying to test this with alligator clip across the blobs of solder on the back - electrical contact may not have been ideal with this however.
