hi :smash: :smash:

this is the pcb layout of my newly project in two part .
1st main board is power section & 2sd is PWM section
of course i used a few SMD components in PWM pcb :D

EDT 44
pri 36 [turn]
sec 4 [turn] " center tab "
pri wire size : 4*26 (AWG)
sec wire size : 33*26(AWG)

part one bottom side :

Current Ratings.

Hi Mahmoud.


Just one question after this long discussion,

Is this power supply stable for long time operation?

have you loaded it with fixed loads for 1 hour? to draw 6 amps? 4 amps?

what is the current rating for it?

It can deliver +/-50V 6 Amp continues?

can you give more info about the transformer winding?

What is the meaning of 4 Turn center tap (33*0.4)
Thanks...

(33*0.4)
 
Part two component side :

Hi,

This is a fascinating design and I built it using my own layout. I would like to share it with others DIYers. I modified it for different voltages.

The design works perfect with around 500W constant load with little rise in mosfet temperature.
Controller board is same for both designs

Hi everybody,
I am not much expertise with SMPS. I have few questions:

1. Transformer data: 25T Primary, 14 T secondary on EE/42/42/20 core.
2. Zener used 62V between 0V & + secondary voltage.
3. rest is same as mahmood schematic.

Now according to mahmoods revised schematic, the volts per turn comes to be 4.666 ( 42/9T). So the 14T in secondary should give ~65V and therefore I put 62V zener.

But my SMPS is giving +/- 78volts and this drops to Around 76 volts on connecting a 1000W halogen. Thus the SMPS is regulating the load.

Why this is happening. I think the volts per turn is incorrectly mentioned as +/-42 in place of +/-50 in the revised schematic. because if we consider 50 volts out from 9 turns, we get 5.555 volts per turn (50/9T) and this gives 78 volts for 14T.

Even if we consider 5.55 V/T, second question: why the SMPS is regulating 78 volts when the zener is 62 Volts.

Please correct If I am wrong anywhere .

Eva, could you please throw some light? :)

Thanks
