Comments are welcomed.

Any one intrested into more schematics, mail me.


Micro

has any one managed build this project?

I have built the SMPS and it works almost out of the box, the biggest problem was
closing the feedback loop,a type two is used in design I changed to type type three
and later eliminated the monitoring of neg rail and a few other changes and later reduced it to halfbridge.I went on to design my own halfbridge that suited my needs.I had some help from the designer Reinhard Metz ,who is a member of this forum.The original design called for 100uH inductors on ouputs but were changed to 350uH.I also am aware that some people added large caps on output.Not a good idea,lowers ESR and will have huge effect on feedback loop and could result in oscillations.I posted photos of my halfbridge version of this supply somewhere in this thread.If you have LTspice you can simulate the supply and verify it works.., If you want to build it I would suggest that you buy all parts from source especially the magnetics or better yet buy the completed one.

I have seen this expression before: Type two feedback, type three feedback,

I am not familiar with the expression, albeit with feedback theory no problem.

What does it mean?

It seems the electronic diagram from the first post is extracted from one QSC service manual. The design is still a small mistake that was left intentionally.

Chas1 are you saying you built the one in post #1 or in post #12?

Interesting to know there is a mistake


could you show

[raju4194]

can i get pcb lay out of 1.8kw power supply

[chas1]

If you follow the directions and have the parts,including the double sided pcb the supply can be constructed and it does work,I had my pcb made here in local board house,wound my own transformer as directed,purchased parts from Mouser,wound my own inductors and gate drive transformer and with a few mod's use the supply to power a 2kW Crown amplifier which I removed from a Toshiba MRI which was used as gradient amps.I did my own pcb layout which was very close to the author's, however I would purchase the author's pcb it's cheaper.The feedback circuit needs some attention.I have completed my own design to suit my needs reusing mosts of the parts from my version of this supply.

As a follow up,pcb board layout is very important for this supply as the control IC is
on the secondary side and isolated from the power section.
