How good does it need to be? I've been playing with one using a 555 and FET with low gain feedback.
You are not going to build a 50W boost converter with a few transistors.
OK, go ahead.Sure we can, 2 xistors for an oscillator, and one for an amp and one FET to power the inductor and a cap. Now if I just knew the correct configuration to hook them up in.
I have several inductors salvaged from server power supplies, in big, do you mean physically or higher u henries?
The oscillator 4 fet.asc is the one mentioned earlier, runs at about 400khz until I tie it to an IRF2805, may work with that some more too.
I already made my own wire wound adjustable resistor and it works pretty well, not sure what the wattage would be, but I know it's a very high wattage resistor. I did find that the current varied, I guess I still have lots to learn about the 555, I'll do what you said and get back to you.What a bummer!
I hope it all comes back to life.
If you keep going, add the other inductor for a total of 66 Uh. and make R6 .1 ohm 5 watt so the current limit will work.
I'm trying to think what you could use for a load.
