I think you're right, that will certainly become an topic.


Before I continue with the safety discussion  I wanted to check the PSU board more closely. Does it work adequately and can it deliver the promised values? What is the thermal situation under load?


I have built up the almost final circuit for testing this. Ignore the shifted component print, was my first attempt. ;)


Everything looks good so far. I'm feeding the whole thing with a 12V/ 2000mA wall wart switcher.


At the input of the PSU there is therefore 11.9V DC, as a load my circuit has 600mA on the heater and approx. 10mA for the B+ circuit.


This results is a heater voltage of 6.6V and a B+ of up to 297.4V! Thus the PSU successfully fulfills its target specifications of 150-280V/ 15mA and 6.3V/ 1500mA so far.

Thermally, the whole thing is inconspicuous so far.


Let's continue, this is how the basic layout should be later on.

The idea is to build the fx device compactly
