Large Switched DC Power Supply For Argon Laser Project Log 4
Wow, things have been going pretty good with this SMPS project. A lot of things are moving forward. I picked up a cabinet that I can use to house the power supply. I also received the 3 printed circuit board designs back from OSH Park this week and started building the PWM controller, drivers and primary […]

Large Switched DC Power Supply For Argon Laser Project Log 3
If you’ve been following along in my previous post on my Large Switched DC Power Supply (Log 1, Log 2) then you know what has gone on with the project so far. Progress on the argon laser DC power supply is slowly advancing, any good project can take a while when working under budget and […]

Arduino Inductance Testing
In yesterday’s post about the progress on my big switch mode supply I mentioned that I was going to try building an Arduino based inductance meter based on the basic and straight forward design from Shadi Soundation. I built the meter later in the evening. It seemed to work okay, but the numbers seemed odd when […]
