With this simple DC voltage converter circuit we can reduce 12v to 5v symmetric voltage and can use existing resources.
Here used 3-Terminal Adjustable Regulator LM317 for positive regulation and LM337 for the negative regulation. The maximum output current is 1A, and as always highly recommend a good heat dissipation for this IC regulator.
The following charts are included to LM317 and LM337 thermal.
