New SSTC Driver



Original poster: "David Sharpe by way of Terry Fritz <teslalist-at-qwest-dot-net>" <sccr4us-at-erols-dot-com>

All
I'm using a relatively new driver chip for my isolated
+/-12VDC through a 4kV BIL GDT (think IGBT/FET driver).
The chip I'm using is a UCC3808A-2 available from
Digikey for the princely sum of $2.57 ea.

P/N 296-11482-5-ND

One fixed resistor, one pot, one 1.0nF cap and your
tuneable from 50-300KHz.  Add a GDT and two IGBT's
you have an open loop 500W SSTC for <20 parts.
All I can say is WOW.  Plus is tuneable to 1MHz.
