Dear DIY colleagues,
a few weeks ago I started to designed a few PCBs (Regelplatine) for my Backes & Müller BM18 Processor Generation due to some very foolish recap works from a "BM specialist" (NOT !!!) 😡
I looked at the different PCB Boards and learned a lot about snubbing resistors in the last month. So I decided to redesign the existing rectifier PCB (watch the attached PDF). As you can see the ringing of the transformer is enormous and can be easily reduced with the Quasimodo tutorial
I bought the "48 Diode Test whitepaper" from Mark Johnson and decided to exchange the existing (and very bad) GBU8G Rectifier Bridge with four Hexfred Diodes.
My question: Are there any other recommendations or any faults in the PCB design you can identify?
