Jack, has your layout left your computer yet? Prototype is made?

PA -- haven't sent out for proto's yet - i will run one in the shop and test it for stability, noise and impedance...

If you don't have it already, add groundplane on the "solderside" also to increase the cooling.

I don't even know if I will use the D-PAK transistors -- using them requires a cutout for the heatsink which is $$$$$.

SOT223 is capable if 100 mA at 5-10 volts loss.

i have the MJD44H11 and MJD45H11 shown on the 3D image. They are really quite nice to use, but a bit different from those specified in the Jung articles.

What's the difference besides higher ratings compared to D44H8/D45H8.

the MJD's have higher BF, lower VAF, lower saturation current.

Default Anyone know J. Breakall?

The quote comes from post #137 way back on page 14 of the thread.

Sorry for going off topic, and this may be pure coincidence, but is the author/contributor of those articles mentioned above James Breakall? If so, he was a professor of mine in college who I knew fairly well! I'll have to email him to ask if that is in fact him that wrote those articles.

Is that an advantage?
