Hi Guys,
I've searched around on the PSU meta, but noone has really mentioned such "complicated" design =) :
I need to build a quality PSU that would output +/-15V, +/-24V, +48V, +5V... "Why?" would you ask? Well... I've built a stereo version of EZ1290s (hense the +/-24V & +48V) and I'm trying to integrate the PCM4222EVM into the same chassis, essentially making the unit a 1073DPD. The PCM4222EVM requires +/-15V for analog stages and +5V for digital things.
Also, I'm trying to separate the power trafo/rectifier/smoother part from reg/bypass/etc. stuff so that I have the trafo/etc in an external box (for hum and dimensions related issues) and the regulation would be inside of the actual rack.
Also, I THINK, I have to have a separate (floating) ground for the PCM422EVM... At least for the digital part of it - if you look at the schematic - http://focus.ti.com.cn/cn/lit/ug/sbau124/sbau124.pdf - page 7 and pages 17-18... Would it be OK to merge the PCM4222EVM analog ground with the EZ1290 ground?
So, summarizing everything, I'd like to design 2 boards - one would reside in a box along with IEC inlet+fusing+on/off switch and the transformer. It would contain a couple of rectifiers and smoothing following them. Then I would have smoothed unregulated DC travel through a multiconductor shielded (?) cable (as few conductors as possible). Then inside of the actual rackmount chassis would be the second board with all the regulation & further smoothing.
What would be the most efficient (read: "smart" =) way of accomplishing all of this?
Thanks!!
PS: I will need about 2A for the whole thing (2x EZ1290 + PCM4222EVM + Phantom + extra LEDs etc..). Currently I have a 100VA 22-0-22 transformer that feeds the FiveFish PSU-2448 to power EZ1290s. It be awesome to know if there is a way to keep the transformer and not have some custom wound stuff, etc. =)
