Compatible with DIY stereo headphone amplifiers, preamplifiers, DACs, network media players, and other applications.
Features:
Instead of using ICs (integrated circuits), we have a fully discrete topology, single pass, series regulator design. This allows complete design control over all operating points and parameters for superior performance. Low noise, high PSRR A constant-current source feeds a zener diode as a stable voltage reference. A low-pass filter (with a corner requency of 1.6Hz) prevents zener noise from being introduced into the error amplifier.
This is an effective yet lower-cost alternative to expensive voltage reference ICs. The low-pass filter also provides a soft-start characteristic.
This is much better than the noise of an IC regulator based PSU tested under identical conditions. The error amplifier is a discrete implementation of an opamp with a high open-loop gain of 102.5dB. The voltage supply to the error amplifier is isolated with capacitance multipliers to boost its PSRR (power supply rejection ratio). This greatly improves the line regulation performance of the PSU.
A long-tailed pair differential amplifier with current mirror and constant current source forms the first stage of the error amplifier. The second stage is the voltage amplification stage (VAS), also with constant current source load. The 3rd stage is comprised of the power MOSFET output devices
configured as a source follower.
High-current MOSFET pass transistors Two paralleled high-current, highly reliable MOSFETs (rated at 17A each) serve as the "pass" transistor. The high current rating provides a very high safety space against overcurrent damage. The use of paralleled MOSFETs divides the heat dissipation, simplifying thermal management.
Onboard heatsinks can be used which would allow the this PSU to supply up to 1A continuous (with much higher peak-value currents). More sustained currents are possible by using larger, offboard heatsinks. The negative temperature coefficient of MOSFETs prevents damaging thermal-runaway conditions that may plague conventional BJT devices. No current-limiting.
