Picture shows the top of the bare PCB along with an example of a finished PCB (earlier revision shown in the assy pic). This auction is for ONE bare PCB.

2.5-13VDC @ 3A or 13-25VDC @2A

Uses:

As a 5VDC heater supply for your 300B project. Use your 5VAC transformer tap to get 5VDC (yes it's possible with this PS). No hum pot needed.
As a 2.5VDC heater supply for your 2A3 project. Use 1/2 of a traditional 6.3VAC center tapped winding. 3.15VAC will rectify perfectly into 2.5VDC with this board.
Convert your amplifier's preamp/driver tubes to DC. Easily convert a 6.3VAC heater to 6.3VDC. Huge improvement.
As a standalone power supply for your Squeezebox or Pi project.
Any project that needs a heater power supply or a low volt power supply.

Heater Circuit:

Regulated 6.3VDC from 6.3VAC winding with the use of schottky diodes and super low dropout regulator. Or 5VDC from 5VAC, etc. This isn’t possible with almost every power supply out there.
Voltage doubler jumper and trimpot adjustment. Allows for switching between 6.3V tubes and 12.6V tube without pulling out your soldering iron. Simply move the jumper and dial in the pot. A standard 6.3VAC transformer winding now allows the use of twice the tube choices. Go price a NOS 12SN7 vs a NOS 6SN7 and see how this board pays for itself.
Huge capacitance for ultra-low ripple. 30,000uF capacitance.
3 amps max heater current. High current components and heat management designed in. Remember you need 1.8X the DC current from your transformer. For example: to power 2 6SN7 tubes for a total of 1.2A, you need a theoretical bare minimum of 2.16A available from your transformer. A safer rule of thumb is 2.0X the DC current. If you're using the doubler, then current get cut in half once more (darn that Ohms law).
Two sets of heater outputs.

Additional Features:

Optional ¼ B+ reference circuit built in. Elevate the heater ground to ¼ of the B+ voltage. Provides for hum free power and cathode protection.
If not using the 1/4 B+ ground, a traditional ground is provided. Or, a jumper location is provided to ground directly through one of the mounting screws. Or, solder a capacitor in the jumper location to float the ground. Or, use no ground at all. Basically, every possibly grounding scheme is accommodated.
Designed for use with high end audio grade components (Wima MPK series, Nichicon KW series, etc).
Small and compact. All this circuitry is smartly arranged on a 5cm X 10cm board (1.97” x 3.94”).
Thick PCB with 2 ounce traces.

A BOM from Mouser is below. I used all high end components (Wima and Nichicon Audio caps, etc). Full schematic and board layout are above. If you're handy you can wire one up point to point with all the info in this and and skip the need to buy the PCB. Please know your skill level and knowledge of electronics before considering this PCB. If Mouser is out of something try DigiKey. You should be comfortable specifying substitutions, although I do my best to help you out with that below. For example, if a capacitor is out of stock try a slightly higher voltage or capacitance of the same lead spacing and series. Or try another high quality capacitor with the same specs. Also, there's some wiggle room with resistor values of the same wattage.

*** The Microchip LDO that's vital to this circuit is usually out at Mouser (and everywhere else I've looked) and has a long lead time. I have some available that can be purchased with this PCB.
