Soft switch version 2 anyone? After the first group buy of the soft switch circuit, I continued to get emails from people interested in the kit. I've made a version 2 which includes the following improvements: 1. Replace the hard-to-obtain MAX6816 (debounce IC) with a CD4013. 2. Added a high current relay to switch up to 15A AC. 3. Added jumpers to make one board work with 115VAC and 230VAC. 4. Added an NTC thermistor for in-rush current limiting. The layout supports the popular CL-60 or larger CL-101 part. 5. Added a fuse (15A max) for the switched output. 6. Added an output for an optional current-limiting board. You can find more info and pictures on my website: https://www.robcheng.com Click on AUDIO -> ELECTRONICS -> SOFT SWITCH V2 Here is preliminary pricing (US $): $55 shipped (U.S.) includes everything. $40 shipped (U.S.) minus the switch. $15 shipped (U.S.) for PCB only. International: add ~ $5-$10 depending on location. The prices are higher than the previous GB because I'm including the transformer and high-current relay. || Name ||Kit no switch||Kit with switch||Opt soft start||Location|| ||DW8083|| 0 || 2 to 4 || 0 || USA || || Brian Bell || || || || USA || || Vladimir || || || || || || Chuck || || || || || || DaveN? || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || Totals || 0 || 4 || 0 || -- || |
