A problem in the transformer won't show up with a DVM - you'll need to hipot test it. If the transformer is the problem, you won't see it with the bridge connected and floating, only when the -ve end

That was my plan for my problem transformer. If anyone is going to try this, absolutely, definitely, unconditionally MUST have MOVs and fuses on the primary side to protect the mains service from HV

One cross reference for the IXYS transistor you mention is STP4NK80Z. If you look at the ST datasheet, it shows the lower dV/dt as applying to the MOSFET diode and two different circuits for test/mea

OK Manfred. Firstly, I should stress that you must not confuse me with someone who understands all about these MOSFETs :-) Your question spurred my interest. I have been reading from my old (1987) IR

I'll hazard a guess that the idea is to try and create some sort of resonance with the grid wires to reduce feedback at vhf. Steve _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Am

I don't think you can hurt the slug by winding up the power until it gives 100uA, so DIY testing against another meter is ok. If you prise off the sticky label there's a trimpot accessible through a

The most common thing I see in failed FETs is drain to gate leakage or short circuit. Some basic checks: Measure resistance from the gate to drain and then source - both should be very high resistanc

One of YU1AW's designs gives a size of 80x150mm for the pcb capacitor. Allowing for the dielectric that's in the region of a quarterwave x halfwave. On top of that it's lossy at 432 so if there's any

If you're using coax for impedance transformation the voltage and/or current levels in some places will be different from the values you expect at 50 ohms and you might need to check the cable is sti
