  1. finally a bom for the current boards http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/ssdynalobal.xlsx
  2. I have never tried it. not available in plastic insulated tab, so you would have to make sure the insulation is right. at least its low voltage
  3. it was a greenlee, I had to order it from Newark and it came from Germany. it was about $200. birgir has one too, (and he posted pictures of the one he broke) so he can dig up the part number easier.
  4. that is too small. 40 inch seems about right. the Phillips sure is close. would like an oled, but that is probably not going to happen in smaller sizes.
  5. I have D punches and the IEC punch. yep they deform the metal but only on one side, so you make sure the other side is the outside. wrapping the die in some electrical tape along the surface helps making no marks.
  6. so there were problems with the golden reference board, plus I added another stage to bring the noise down to 1.2 nanovolts peak to peak. (the 120hz is now at the rest of the noise....) PLEASE CHECK THIS! before I make boards that I have to throw out. http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/goldenreference.pdf http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/goldenreferenceboard.pdf http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/goldenreference.jpg The 47uf caps are tantalum but the lead spacing is right
  7. don't know yet. with the he1000 coming out, all this power is unnecessary and the ssdynalo works great. the no feedback part is sweet however.
  8. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=O3XyDLbaUmU
  9. version 8 are the boards i am getting next week. no reason to update that. version 9 has a bit more heatsink on the outputs, otherwise identical. will do the dynahi soon
  10. latest posted kgdynalobal5,kgdynalobal7,ksa5pssmall,goldenreference have ground planes on both sides. the first 2 were updated today. kgsshvpssic also has ground planes on both sides. 2 of birgir's latest boards have the same thing. all the above now have teadrops making the holes more reliable. grass does not grow under the feet of the stax mafia as you get older you need a bigger monitor. so getting a uhd display that is 28 inches from my current 32 inches is clearly the wrong direction. same thing with horsepower
  11. really think that HIfi Nutter really needs to go and buy a liquid lightning and go over to changstar
  12. if helps to have a bigass monitor. (32 inch, 2.5k) but its no longer enough, i need a 4k monitor thats about 40 inches for my desk. 60hz and the video card that goes with it. any suggestions?
  13. yep i fixed it. one of the caps was not working because the ground was not hooked up. highly unlikely that anyone would know, but easy to fix. everyone with those boards should add the jumper. how I found it was I was working on adding more area to the heatsink on the surface mount board and saw that the pin was not connected. what I could do now is add some ground plane on the back of that board like I have done for the others. lower impedance ground means even less noise
  14. birgir bought 100 feet of fancy high voltage wire. he wanted to buy 300 feet, but that was way over the maximum size and weight limit for shipping.
  15. the reason why those power outlets are done that way is for europe and 220-240v where both lines may be hot WRT ground.
  16. found this one yesterday, the 4 cathode caps for the outputs... same deal with the power supply, they could possibly short to ground, so either lift the caps a bit, or remove, put some kapton on the board and put the caps back. although no one has had this problem yet. updated board file has this fixed.
  17. the original and the boards i'm getting from birgir soon have one land missing from the 4.7uf cap to the right of the input connector. Jumper the ground line to the electrolytic next to it. board files updated. after i verify the surface mount boards work, i will have 2 sets of extra boards if people want them, also one set of boards with the mpsw parts.
  18. as long as the heatsink is big enough, that should be fine, and put the power supply on the other heatsink. its still going to be a fairly big box
  19. i hope you don't have any cats.
  20. its a to246, so it would have to be a different heatsink, and a different footprint
  21. 2 amp boards on one side, the power supply and transformer on the other side
  22. http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/kgsshvpssic.jpg good for at least 100ma on each rail with enough heatsink
  23. new power supply, 100ma version angle bracket sicfet pass transistor coming for the higher power applications.
  24. that's what Justin gets for using quality made in usa circuit boards. time to use the Chinese crap.
