New-HV15W High Voltage NIXIE and Magic Eye Tubes PSU,Power Supply Module Std.

DANGER! Lethal Potentials Present
LET ME CLARIFY FIRST:
THE USER IS WARNED THAT CAUTION MUST BE USED IN THE TESTING AND USE OF THE MODULE.
HIGH VOLTAGE, LETHAL POTENTIALS ARE PRESENT IN THIS MODULE. EXTREME CAUTION MUST BE USED IN WORKING WITH.
THIS MODULE CONTAINS DANGEROUS, HIGH VOLTAGE POTENTIALS. USE CAUTION.
DO NOT TOUCH ANY PART OF THE MODULE WHEN IT IS WORKING.

 

Product Change Notification in the New Version:

 

1.Module contains input reverse polarity protection;
2.Small size,and update the output cap to 10uF/400V(Sanyo);
3.Add 4 install mounting holes;
4.Able to install 2.54mm std 2-pin at the input & output parts;


Description:
The HV15W series high voltage power converters are typecial current mode boost converters which can accept 9 to 24V DC  input,and output of 85 to 220V DC range set by an on-board 3296 trimmer resistor(For Lower DC input you get lower MAX DC output,read the details below).
It contains an ENABLE pin to turn the convert on/off,and can be controlled by an regular logic signal,like a MCU GPIO PIN.
No audible noise,intsead of NE555/MC34063 style PSU;

Typical Usage:

 

For driving NIXIE Tubes,Magic Eye Tubes and other applications requiring high DC voltage.

Typical Parameters:

 

Input:12V DC;
Output:175V DC;


Max power:
15W;
Max efficiency:88.6%;
Output setting:Adjustable with a single trimmer resistor;
Module size: 49mm*32mm*15mm(DC headers are not included);

Simple test by myself:

 

By using a KTEC 12V/1.5A AC Power Adapter which is for my WD USB HARD DRIVER,and driving a regular FSL 15W 220V~240V E14 light bulb(which I bought for my refrigerator early),the results shown below:

 

Input:12V;
Max output voltage:185V with the light bulb turned on;
Power output:9W;
Efficiency:86.6%;
No audible noise;

Note:

 

This module is especially designed for driving NIXIE tubes from 12V DC to 175V DC,and you can get more higher voltage by increasing the input voltage,with a 16V DC input or higher ,you can get 220V max DC output.For the Circuit and PCB files in Eagle Cad format,you can visit my website:
