I posted an example of how to do a 5VDC/9VAC convertor using the first transformer I found on Digikey that matched thebasic specs , there are probably all kinds that would work. The design is two single-ended to ground drivers which I show as TIP120 just for current and gain without worring about the parameters. Transformer can be a Single Primary 110V to 48 VAC Centertap secondary or I showed a dual primary with the 110V primaries wired in series and 24 VAC Centertap. I have not tested the design or done the real exact 2nd level of math, this is an example of how I have done this in the past. http://c128.com/sample-5vdc-9vac-convertor Bil -----Original Message----- From: owner-cbm-hackers@musoftware.de [mailto:owner-cbm-hackers@musoftware.de] On Behalf Of silverdr@wfmh.org.pl Sent: Sunday, September 15, 2013 5:59 PM To: cbm-hackers@musoftware.de Subject: Re: 9VAC from 5VDC?

I've asked... on two continents. True - SX-64 is no longer being produced ;-) But - BTW - it might be good to check what transformers (they were pretty small) CBM used in the SX PSUs. Maybe those (or similar) are still available. -- SD! Message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing list Message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing listReceived on 2013-09-15 23:00:07
