F5 power amplifier

[regiregi22]

when when when??!!



Today's waiting seems to never end

 

[CENTRAL]

Appart from speculation, are there any clues about the F5T ??? The name suggests higher power I guess...

While you are waiting, don't forget to order your F5 turbo-jet neck-tie

But on account of higher revs, wider tyres and quite possibly some bling-bling... 4 LEDs this time?

F5 Turbo

For What I understood it's a F5 for driving a difficult load up to 1 ohm or less
Specially designed for driving Electrostatic Speakers and Maggies

Has anyone compared the full cvillier layout to the standard f5 ...?

 

[bobodioulasso]

i certainly wasn't the first one neither.
Anyway the turbo trick lies into the diodes.

The FQA36P15 and FQA28N15 might seem like overkill @ 294W and 277W respectively but they are pretty cheap at Mouser (£1.71 and £1.09 each).
They are also TO3-P so should be better at dissipating heat than the TO-220 package.

Signal tracks can be 30-40 mils, power ones must 100 mlis mimimum. Pads are too tiny, particularly if you are going to etch your pcbs at home IMO.

Forgot to say;

Board is 350mm x 50mm.
Phoenix connectors for Input, Output and Power.
Minimum track width 1.2mm (1.6mm on output devices).
1.6mm board woth 2oz copper.

350MM probably makes it too big to fit into the common Conrad heatsinks a lot people use. A little smaller might be nice, only if this is something you plan on getting rid of.

 

[UKToecutter]

Thank you fellas.
I'll work on all that tonight.

Quick question;
