never tested fully. but probably base drive current may not be enough for 2+ amps

goldenreference is only good for about 1.5 amps when you need a lot more than that, you have to add an extra set of pass transistors. like the ones on the uber2amp board. And they have to be mounted to a large heatsink

latest code from Kerry works with current Arduino compiler, but still does not have the code for the flipped relays http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/volumecontroller.zip

hinges with torsion springs just like the old thorens dust covers.

you need the specialized high voltage transistor tester. which do not seem to be on ebay at the moment.

a1968 has the cutouts between the pins, so could be real. no cutouts, definitely fakes. although the ones from dalbani had the cutouts and were definitely fakes. still a good idea to use a tester first.

Hook the 2 primaries in series, and test the output. If it's wired correctly you get voltage, if you get virtually zero, they are wired out of phase. It won't hurt the transformer. Don't do this for parallel windings

in the power supply they are running at only 400v and much less current.

buy the voltage tester from ebay and test them. Over 1000 volts, they are real, 230 volts and they are a massive pile of fakes from dalbani.

Parts sourcing is always fun. This has happened to me several times

bugs bunny: Oops i had the silly thing in reverse

reminds me of mikhail hand picking el34 that would work with 400v on the cathode. And the people involved remember how that turned out. kt66 has to go boom eventually and take the j79 and k216 with it.

the golden reference power supply setup for +/-40V

[beavis & butthead mode on] quote "maybe I need to discharge myself" tee hee I've had a very bad day, could not resist. where is steve when you need him.

I would make sure the comparitors are working as expected. .1hz sine wave makes it easy

great way to do this, however some heatshrink over the green things to avoid touching the terminals which are at -500v

not sure where to put this, this is Kerry's first take on a new bh power supply http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/boards/bh-ps-singlerail-v4.zip

here is Kerry's code http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/oled_mhz15.zip this supports the original relay board, and the prototype new board, still some software change for the 4 reversed relays for the production board

About 400ma DC, peaks up to 600+ma depending on headphones

It won't. Name should resolve to the right place. this is all about massive amounts of hacking including spoofing, mainly from sites in mainland China. they never get into any of my machines, but they try so hard they are using up to 25% of our bandwidth doing nothing.

at some point in the next couple of weeks, my server will be put behind a massive firewall. At which point the ip address will change and the dns will change. So it may appear to be down for up to a day.

there is no 500v version of the carbon, current sources limited to 900v

my bad on the mislabeling. Hey... people are supposed to check this stuff. updated board file in a minute.

soren noticed that the 2 inside heatsinks were not grounded. I don't think it makes any difference, but updated the board file to ground those heatsinks

Nope, chokes are too big. current regulated supply far superior.
