with some careful planning, I think you can accommodate the Cinemag pin out on the board as well.
I received a quote of $47.61 for the Cinemag CMLI-15/15BPC (pc pins/single shield) for quantity 1-10.
Steve Eddy ran one for the Cinemags a couple of years ago. IIRC, that got the price down to something like $35.
Hi!
Could somebody tell me what kind of amp are you talking here????
Maybe a schematic?

Did you ever experiment with using the CCS without the dropping resistor afterwards and/or taking the output from between the MOSFETs (so-called "mu output")?

I would be interested in seeing how some of the other SuperTex devices could be plugged in here. These are wonderful transistors for tubies.

No, I haven't. The straightforward way worked so well, I was hesitant to use my limited bench time to get fancy.
SY said:
ah, ok. well, perhaps Jack can ensure that the MOSFETs are placed at the edge of the board so one could try and heat sink them externally and play with this (or add small clip heat sinks). Also, I think the gate stopper resistor should be as close as possible to the device, Jack.
I'm assuming you're going to share the boards when it's all said and done? 🙂 🙂 If not, pardon my presumption!
SY said:
with the series resistor... I'd be interested in removing it all together. But, point taken.
I think the series resistor placed between the CCS and the plate has some positive benefit beyond taking up part of the heat dissipation, which I explained in the article. Since the voltage amp's load is (essentially) a cathode follower, it doesn't need to have a particularly low source resistance. As designed, the source resistance is about rp for the 6SN7. The bandwidth limitation is the input transformer, not the voltage amp.
Luvdunhill!
Just questions:
Or do you mean that the info is only in the AX magazine?

I did and sorry, but I don't find any info!

Well, you can fit the transformers on the board, but it makes it somewhat ungainly looking -- the Sowter's have 3 pins and (apparently) no connection to the can, while the Cinemag's do have this connection. I am going to allow for inclusion of the transformers, but will put some slots so that the board can be snapped apart.
Could someone identify the 4-pins on the Cinemag transformers. I have the PDF, but am not certain which connects to the shield(s).

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
Well, I'm talkin' to myself here -- have not heard back from the folks from Cinemag regarding the pins for their transformer so I am making a guess -- the PCB can be snapped along the side if (like me) you want to mount it in a PAS chassis, and mount the transformers on the back wall.
As it stands now, the board measures 7.500 x 3.500
