This board can be used for a QCW if you are using the traditional buck modulator and bridge design. I tested the board up to 500Khz no issue with logic and/or gate drive. For phase shift modulated designs that is another story....

I plan to release it soon. I have parts coming in this week (7mm inductors). I will have it tested in a DR by next week. At that point I will upload the files to the website.

Keep in mind that this is a very new board design, so if you use it think of it as beta testing at this point.

I will post a link to this thread when I do upload the files.

Good job, Eric!

Nice job on the layout and special thanks for taking the time to fix the original errors. I am impressed! I like the option of using both popular types of fibers. I am looking forward to using your board in the Zotzilla rotating spark gap-to-DR conversion. Ya, baby!

Thanks for the compliments, Steve Wards's design was awesome to begin with, I just tweaked it so that more people could use it.


Standardization!


I can't wait to see this new hybrid convertion you are building Hank. It will for sure be one of a kind!

Good looking PCB, but I still prefer my own single sided through hole version, we can call it the version UD0.1 :D

The error in the TL3116 network, was that in the original schematic or just on the original PCB?

does your new board use surface mount or conventional IC's and have you made any schematic changes? it would be cool if there was a board for a QCW as a addendum to UD2.5 or a standalone with conventional or surface mount board.

The board pictured above is the actual board. So yes it does use SMD ICs. Yes there are also several schematic changes. I will publish the schematic and board files later tonight hopefully.

I may publish a QCW board I'm working on. But that is ways down the road. It is a design that uses ZVS and phase shift modulation. That will be a ways off as I still need to find the time to finish it.
