12V-30V Arduino Power Supply

So one project that I've been working on lately is a 24V Brushed Motor Controller Shield for Arduino. One of the features that the shield must implement is a power supply capable of power the Arduino with more than 15V, activates the Arduino when the input voltage is greater than 12V, and power any necessary gate driver circuitry. I finished Rev 1 of the power supply and plan to add one more revision to the power supply circuit before designing the reminding parts of the shield. 

 

The one revision I plan to make is to clamp the gate voltage at VN10LP so it will not get damaged. I plan to release more schematics I make as the project progresses.

You should probably keep your image width dimensions under about 500px. You can actually make the image a link to the full size pic once you have added the “thumbnail”.
