Hi,
i've been doing some updating on the wiki and seems that my excel is not really uptodate. If you have paid and the wiki still says you haven't, please email me with the following in the subject field: diyaudio.com nick, paypal name , paid. All of you that haven't received a invoice, i will be sending that out tomorrow morning.
atm, 90boz + 90 pwr brds are paid for so please transfer the funds asap so i can order the boards on Monday. We need to reach at least 150 + 150 paid boards, otherwise this is going to be a nightmare to recalculate pricing etc etc.
Thx,
Kari

Tell me about it, I am testing 400 IRFP9610's for Jason's GB and there are only 4 extra, he is lucky that only 2 of the three require matching.

The 1000uF/100V has a footprint of 18mm/7.62mm
The 22uF 5mm/2,5mm
The poluprop cap footprints are taken from Mundorf MCap 4,7uF, 10uF and 30uF.

The hieght is not really a restriction though, so I can use anything inside the same diameter, correct?
C2 & C3 18mm
C22 5mm and what's the reccomended VDC?
What is the diameter allowed for C9 to C12 and C15 to C18 on the PSU?

Anthony

C9 to C12 max dia 35mm and C15 to C18 max dia 14mm
Finally some time to take a glass of wine while my wife and daughter are a sleep. Seems that 24h/day is not near enough, should be something like 34h

Ahh I know that peace and quiet well.
Have a good evening Kari.
Regardless of what happens with a parts GB it appears that the most expensive part of the kit is going to be C9-C12. I have checked around to quite a few suppliers (I am talking new stock here) and it appears that in small quantities these caps are going to be at least $6 or more, in fact several brands were over $9 each! Has anyone else found an inexpensive source for these caps? One thing I did note was a price jump at 4,000uF, I have noted that a really good 3,900uF cap is easier to find and a few bucks cheaper.

Anthony

Anthony,
I don't see why 3900uF caps can't be used, especially
if they're easily sourced.
The power supply (even with just 3900uF caps) looks
to be somewhat quieter than the original Bosoz
power supply (larger caps in CRC arrangement
vs just C before regulation). Of course, I'm not sure
if the XBosoz has a significantly greater demand on
its PS than the stock Bosoz.
Cheers,
Dennis

Thanks for the feedback Dennis, this is what I thought. I hope Kari gets the Wiki up today as he said he would. If I can get a quick response from the members I can save us a bundle on a special broker deal on some smashing 105 Deg. 3900uf 100vdc caps. I am talking $3.50 US ea as opposed to $6 to $8 at least in Disty channel. I can only get 40 but that's enough for 10 power supplies, and to be fair I would cost average the savings in kits.

Anthony,
Cornell Dubilier part #: 380LX472M100A04; 100V, 4700uF.
Miinimum order quantity is 100 pcs, $4.01 each. I think price will go down if more is desired.

Where is that quote from? The quote on the Mouser site is over $8 for that exact cap, qty 100

Update!
Coulomb is organizing a parts GB for the Xbos and Pwr pcb's. Please have a look at the wiki page.

That is why i chose to use a snap-in type of cap. Basically anything can be used here.

Thanks Kari, I popped in and made a few edits, I think there is enough info there now to collect Data on level of interest.
Got to this link and scroll to bottom

From a local sale rep., quote paper was from 6 weeks ago for something else.
I will confirm that on Monday.

Anthony,
Sure, I will confirm that on Monday.
On issue of parts kit GB, Can I get the parts w/OUT heat sinks?
I have over hunderd pieces in my garage.
Also, I have need for some extra IRF9610 / 610 for a different project, think I can paid for some extra?
Sure, I will confirm that on Monday.

Humm if you have hundreds of extras how much would you sell them for? 🙂
When we know how many kits are required I willl be able to tell you how much a kit is without Heatsinks, but I do not see a problem.

Guys, you are awsome.
Not just boards but parts as well in GB.
I have a question. As I mentioned earlier I will try to replace outputs on DCX2496 with X - Bosoz. So 6 boards will go in. I would like to use only two power supply boards. Could anyone let me know what is the power requirenment or what I would need to change on original boards to make it happen.
I think that I read somewhere on the tread that gain is 12 dB. Is that correct? If someone is to change gain what resistor would affect that?
Thanks

I mentioned that in the original BOSOZ design that a combination of P5 and R15 changed the gain. If you changed R15 to 430R and shorted P5, that will yield 12dB gain. I have not looked closely enough at kari's layout yet to see how to set the gain of the preamp.

Anthony
Thanks,
When you find the deatails please post. I think 12 dB will be fine, but I might want to lower it a bit.
