*blows raspberry* I knew I should have checked the data sheet. The FM are back in stock at Digikey thankfully... Digi-Key - P12926-ND (Panasonic - ECG - EEU-FM1V680)

Thanks to Beefy for doing this great favor for the Australian MiniMAX interest.

With the inability to combine Beezar shipping with the cases, some of the benefit is gone, unfortunately

But I understand the reasoning. Maybe I should leave the Beezar parts to individuals and just do the Mouser, Digikey and Sonic Craft as the group buy items? I'll sleep on it......

Yeah, I just received the 100uf 35V UPW from Mouser two days ago. I was a bit surprised when I opened it up to put it in the MiniMAX.

YGPM.

So it seems that a guy from my work has just bought a regular MAX PCB, and I have offered to add the parts he requires to my Mouser and Digikey orders.

Instead of doing a whole new BOM I am hoping to just add an extra multiple of my current group buy kits, minus any Mini parts I don't require, plus any parts still required for the regular MAX. So the changes would be:

Remove RR4/PF1?
Add back CR5?
Add back CM2?
Can I keep the new axials at DR1?
Can I keep the new axials at CR3?
Can I keep the new 68µF 35V electrolytic at CR4?

Importantly, is there anything else I have forgotten about?

[EDIT]
Back to the old power switch.
I suppose he needs a Hammond case.
[/EDIT]

Cheers!

Without doing board surgery, there is no place for this part.{quote]
Add back CR5?[/quote]Same as above, without board surgery, this part is must be installed. Quote:

Add back CM2?

optional Quote:

No. The holes are not setup for the axial Schotty's. Quote:

Can I keep the new axials at CR3?

yes Quote:

Can I keep the new 68µF 35V electrolytic at CR4?

Yes, this would probably help slightly. Quote:

Importantly, is there anything else I have forgotten about?

I don't think so. Quote:

[EDIT] Back to the old power switch.

Yes. Quote:

Yes. Quote:

Thanks for that tomb. I will make the changes to his BOM, and *finally* place all of my parts orders in the next day or so!

Is the BOM on the MiniMax page fully updated? I'm getting ready to order two sets of parts, and I want to make sure I don't need to make any corrections.

It should be, but I've been very busy of late, so no guarantees.

Seriously, if the small, less than 100uf electrolytic is listed for CR4, and a PF1 is listed instead of RR4, then that should be the latest and greatest.

are the boards here ?! i got in the case group buy but can't seem to find the board for the minimax anywhere

Quoting tomb:
Quote:

* PCB's will be available for sale (at the usual Millett MAX outlet) on Friday, 10/24/2008. * Due to the requirement of shipping the cases via Priority Mail and International Priority Mail, combined shipping is not possible. (Your cost for shipping a boards/parts order at the same rates would be very expensive.) A word of explanation - The MiniMAX cases must be shipped via Priority Mail and International Priority Mail. This is prudent, since there is no way of replacing a MiniMAX case lost in shipment. On the other hand, an order for boards and parts can be replaced. If I were to ship the boards and parts at the same rates required for the cases, it would cost you a monumental amount. As many of you have experienced, I can ship boards and parts at very economical First Class rates. Finally, the MiniMAX is a refined design. It has gone through the prototyping stage with extensive testing and obviously has a long heritage in the Millett Hybrid and Millett MAX designs. Therefore, we do not anticipate any changes with the MiniMAX BOM. I will also work on updating the MiniMAX website to the same standards as the MAX, MOSFET-MAX and BantamDAC shortly.

PCBs released on my birthday

Maybe Wednesday evening on Beezar - because unfortunately, I have to go out of town for a couple of days anyway.

Indeed!
