ante Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 Hi All,Another power supply that looks interesting.Comments are welcome.Ante ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguru Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 Ante,It must need a VERY LARGE (300W!) heatsink. (or liquid nitrogen). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vainajala Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 Ante, Audioguru,Could this be used with supply voltage of about 45 volts?At least the PCB-routing might be difficult because of the amount of transistors... ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted July 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 Vainajala,I am sure it will work with 45Volts if slightly modified. And the Mosfets must not be attached to the pcb or what do you think?Ante ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Mosfets must not be attached to the pcb or what do you think?Ante ::)Hmm...I just thought that ten parallel power transistors in a PCB might require many jump-wires (at least for single-layer board)...But yes, it's propably better to move the mosfets from the board. I wonder what is the heatsink's thermal resistance requirement?Even though I have another PSU "project" going on, this one interests me also... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikerman Posted July 24, 2004 Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 Looks very good at first glance.. - The power MOS are hard to come by here in denmark, but the IRF9540 are easy to get, they should be ok, perhaps you can even get away with only using 8 or so...

ante Posted July 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 Bikerman,Dear neighbour, here you can buy the Mosfets in Denmark ;D.http://www.elfa.se/elfa/produkter/en/2458.htmThey are not very expensive; they are cheaper than the 9540.I think you can get away with 8 of them if well cooled. 8)Ante ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerman Posted July 24, 2004 Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 Hello AnteJust tried to orden 10 pcs. the total prise was 155 sek. without tax.In Denmark you can get 10 pcs. IRF9540 for 156.60 dkr. also without tax.. - ok, you can save a little :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted July 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 Bikerman,I was in Denmark on Thursday so I had to get some Danish money, the exchange rate is 1.25sek for 1dkr. I purchased some Carlsbergs, nice to have a stock if the whether gets warmer (or even if it gets colder who cares) ;D. So, you are going to build this power supply then?Ante ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerman Posted July 24, 2004 Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 AnteCarlsberg is always nice to have, no matter what the weather is ;)I am going to build this or the dual you posted a while ago...but dunno witch yetI did however get some (used) MJE4502, 10 pcs for 100dkr. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted July 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 Bikerman,If you decide to go for the dual supply here is some additional info: http://www.a-and-t-labs.com/K2_Lab_Power_Supply/index.htmYou can buy a transformer for $75 if you like to have it all in one.Have you found any source for the LM317HV (TO3) or the MJ 15023?Ante ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerman Posted July 25, 2004 Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 AnteIt would be nice to have the transformer all-in-one, but didn't really wanted the 5V supply..I wanted to use the MJE4502 instead of the MJ15023 (if you read the text in the .pdf file besides the component list, they write MJE4502 as the power transistore, and they should be up to the job according to the spec.still need to find the LM317HV, but if I can't find that one, I can get a replacement... can't remember the name though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted July 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 Bikerman,Do you know if MJE4502 and MJ4502 are the same? I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerman Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Antehmm, I think thet the MJE4502 and the MJ4502 is the same... the ones I have is the MJ4502.. - atleast I'm probably gonna use them and see what happens....I don't think that using the TO220 LM317 in stead of the TO3 is gonna be a problem...it shouldn't get that hot....

ante Posted July 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Bikerman,I think it will work fine. So, have you decided which one to build then?Ante ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerman Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Hmmm, nopeHow about both? ;Dhmmm, do you know if the dual 0-50V can run as a 0-50V 10A and 0-100V 0-5A ? (serie and parallel connected) ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted July 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Bikerman,Well that would be nice to have both of them on the bench. ;D I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerman Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 AnteWell, What would I need 10A for anyway ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted July 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 Bikerman,What would you need more than 60Volts for? :oAnte ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerman Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 AnteNothing, need a +/- supply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
