A TREAD sized regulator - the r1 - Page 12

This could be run as a dual supply in the same way the TREAD could be run as one:

Looks like I blew the build, guys. frown.gif   I got R6 and R7 correct, but I neglected to order the correct versions for D1 and U2 at 24V output.  I can't get any more than ~8.6VDC on the output and I don't have a load that low to test.

 

I'll have the right parts on order today.

What ever happened to this project?

Umm ... unfortunately, it's in my lap.  I built one for the purpose of making specific measurements using Tangent's LNMP.  However, my LNMP batteries shorted out, made a mess and blew up the TLE chip.  Dsavitsk fixed it for me, since I was pretty busy at the time, but then I blew out the r1 I built.  (I put too much voltage and current load on it.)  I have all the parts to build a new one, but just haven't got 'round to it, yet.

Does this mean you now know what maximum voltage and current it can feed? I'd be interested in those numbers.

Just going from memory, but I think cobaltmute indicated that there's no problem exceeding what I did - it's just that the parts selection at present was not set up for that much.

I have a few projects that would benefit from a board like this. I'm thinking of going with a Salas v1.1 BiB which might be overkill. Or a Sigma 25, which might be in the same league. I like that the size is super small and flexible.
