HeadBanger Headphone Amp Construction Kit - After the euphoria
over receiving my new Sony Minidisc bundle had partially subsided, I
noticed that the portable unit, the MZ-E40, has a rather weak output.
Measurements showed that it can only manage 80mV rms output and only
about 74dB SPL output from the phones. This is when recording at
average level with 8dB of headroom. In contrast.... [By Stephen H.

High Current Regulated Power Supply - The high current regulator below uses an
additional winding or a separate transformer to supply power for the LM317 regulator so
that the pass transistors can operate closer to saturation and improve efficiency. For
good efficiency the voltage at the collectors of the two parallel 2N3055 pass transistors
should be close to the output voltage. The LM317 requires a couple extra volts on the
input side, plus the emitter/base drop of the 3055s, plus whatever is lost across the (0.1
ohm) equalizing resistors (1volt at 10 amps), so a separate transformer and
rectifier/filter circuit is used that is a few volts higher than the output voltage...

Interfacing 5 Volt CMOS to 12 Volt loads - The circuit above is designed to be used
with the bi-directional lamp sequencer shown above on this same page. Two additional
transistors are used to increase the current from the 74HCT138 decoder to control 12 volt
25 watt lamps. A 6.8 volt/1 watt zener diode is used in series with the ground connection
of all the CMOS ICs (74HC14, CD4516 and 74HC138s) so that the total voltage across the
CMOS devices will be about 5.2 volts and the outputs will move from +12 to about +7 when
selected. The 2N2905/PNP transistor stage is connected as an emitter follower which
provides a high impedance to the... [Bill Bowden's circuit] |

typically 20W per channel of continuous average output power into a 4 or 8 load with less
than 0.1% THD+N.….(added 05/08) |
|
LM317 Regulator With Pass Transistor - The LM317T output current can be increased by
using an additional power transistor to share a portion of the total current. The amount
of current sharing is established with a resistor placed in series with the 317 input and
a resistor placed in series with the emitter of the pass transistor. In the figure below,
the pass transistor will start conducting when the LM317 current reaches about 1 amp, due
to the voltage drop across the 0.7 ohm resistor.... [Bill Bowden] |

LM317 Variable Voltage Regulator - The LM317T is a adjustable 3 terminal positive
voltage regulator capable of supplying in excess of 1.5 amps over an output range of 1.25

makes it essentially blow-out proof.... [Bill Bowden design this one] |
