Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Not o'scope pics but...

PSUD2 does a good job of predicting currents.

Here's the charging current through L1 when L1 has an inductance lower than critical.





Question. In the above example, what supplies the voltage and current to the circuit, when using a LCLC PS filter, while the diodes are both off?

Answer. The charge stored in the filter.

Here's the charging current through L1 when L1 meets critical inductance.






Question. In the above example, what supplies the voltage and current to the circuit, when using a LCLC PS filter, when the diodes never turn off?

BTW Both supplies are delivering about 60ma at similar voltages. Notice how high the charging current is in the first example. This is because of the off time. It has to make up for the off time.
