which mkp do you recommend to use with BIB

Here's some pics of my B1 before and after installing the SSLV, and a closeup of one of the Jupiter output caps.

Very classic Scandinavian like box. I like.

That Jupiter is their current brown skinned higher temp line. Use something like Multicap in the Zobel.

I would rather buy all the PCBs identically and use the build manual to guide me to achieving which polarity I require.

But even that complication is not always required.

Simply build all -ve regulators and use a dual secondary to power the regs. This gives an equal or better performance Dual polarity regulated supply than having to buy specialised +ve & -ve PCBs and having the problem of "left overs".

Hi Andrew / others,

Newbie here : I am building two Salas boards to create -12v 0v +12v output to power an Opamp.

Can I 'just' connect the 0v from the two boards to create a reference 0v ? or will I get current drawn from one to the other (ie: short circuit situation).

I have only single transformer 15 output to feed both boards.

Thx
Jim.

Hi, I kept building 3 boards in a row . My boards power TP's Opus DAC and the transceiver board. As a Vref cap, Oscon was replaced soon. Weren't a good choice there. SSLV1.1 works well, I like it very much! C105, C103 caps are Nichicon Muse KZ's: 1000 uF/25 V and 47 uF/25 V.

Final success PSU+client application system picture we like to see as always.

Thanks Marra,

My transformer is dual secondary, feeding 15v to each Salas board. I get nice 13v output from each board.

To make a dual polarity PS, I assume the 0v from each board should be made common (?). Should the common 0v also be grounded ?

[Salas]

If your client circuit board has a common point, there they go the F0 S0 wires from both boards and they make a symmetric system. Grounding to chassis or not its a matter of how your design is sorted out and what is recommended, i.e floating or not there.
