View Full Version : Solid State Power Supplies jaymanaa 01-26-2009, 07:46 PM Is there a "standard" arrangement for the diodes in a two diode supply (no ct on TX)? I've got one here that looks like one leg of the AC from the PT feeds "through" a capacitor?? Is that a normal situation on SS rectified supplies? Any discussion on the topic would most likely be beneficial as I don't have much experience with them. kvflyer 01-26-2009, 07:52 PM Is it a voltage doubler? Sherwood used them and I think some Fisher used them too. A link to a schematic would help please. jaymanaa 01-26-2009, 07:58 PM I think maybe it is a doubler. Here is a hand drawn schematic jaymanaa 01-26-2009, 08:27 PM Maybe this is more like it. electroking 01-26-2009, 08:32 PM What you have is a half wave voltage doubler. jaymanaa 01-26-2009, 08:37 PM What you have is a half wave voltage doubler. That's in post 4 I presume. For some reason, these things are hard for me to get my head around. Thanks though, I got the one I have here working.:thmbsp: |
