I didn't mention that I purposely placed the regulators next to their pass transistors, with the intention that both will be attached to a heatsink. Thus when the transistor gets to about 150 'C, this should activate the regulators shutdown circuitry and cause it to naturally shutdown...
Do you think any of keep out area around the regulator circuitry would benefit me? Redirect all the noise generated from the modules towards the caps or am I overthinking this design?
Greetings, I'm designing and building a Linear PSU that takes two AC inputs which it rectifies and filters them into a split supply consisting of LM317's and an LM337, each current boosted by a pass transistor. What I'm wanting to know is if the star grounding scheme I'm attempting would be...
