Nice talking to you too, xtorm.

No issue here with the shop with a young girl, I'll romp the whole of JP tomorrow. tongue.gif

Hmm, you definitely need a much better soldering iron than me, because you use it more than me. Don't be a cheapskate like me! tongue.gif

xtorm,
yes, I will do that soon. the copper wire that I got from my supplier is expensive! tongue.gif
To keep the cost down, I may resort to getting them coppers from busted psu's and what nots laugh.gif
Recycling!!! tongue.gif

Yes, those elcheapo won't last that long. The heat will erode the bit in no time.. it's worthwhile to invest in a good one that will last 'forever' laugh.gif

btw i think smpa are all the same, meanwell is very well known, no issues.

jazzy, 0.2ohm is nice!!! i think you should start calculating the cost to do 1 for use tongue.gif i wana get it tongue.gif but waiting for reports!! hahaha
ongbs knn you also got inductance meter? built in the fluke ah? must steal your fluke...hmmmm

i used to buy old transformer from junkyard, coz that time try to DIY transformer but....it remains as junk afterwards...

Moral of the lesson is: get those copper wire from junkyard if u dun need much. buying them from JP is not cheap as most of the shop sell in roll.

Make sure you get the right trans as many are using thin copper wires, I believe thicker wires will give better results.

Btw, what is the function of that 4 inductors in our t-amp?

Just powered my SMPS!
min. voltage can be adjusted: 9.98
max. voltage can be adjusted: 14.73

Will connect to T-Amp after 'warming up'... need to 'memorized' the sound first..
Need to know before and after SMPS.. brows.gif

ongbs,
the inductor, with the required capacitor forms part of the filtering network to filter only the modulation which includes the audio signal.
Whats left after the filtering is the great sound we heard... wink.gif
Therefore, without this filter, Class D would not work. tongue.gif

xtorm,
no worries! Substitues must be better, NOT less. We can't short change our super duper T-Amp, can't we? tongue.gif

Will NOT do the toroid inductor testing yet. The SMPS is progressing. Need to know and familiar myself with sounds first.
If too much mods are done at the same time, can't keep track whats affecting what... doh.gif

Mooncake boxes for T-Amp casing eh? Thinking 'outside the box' eh? laugh.gif
