user TURBO?s replication of Steven Mark?s TPU ?

Hello GK,

Just curious to know if you have tried to connect anything to the output of your TPU yet?

God Bless,

@aether22,

Honestly no because my TPU was a different design (was trying something different) and I got increased signal in the collectors (5v in over 60v out) but no real current (tried to rectify the signal and it dropped the signal). I am building a new version using Otto's specs (back to basics).

My comments come from a compilation of info from Otto, GK and others.

BTW, have you looked at the markovich docs? The TPU looks at lot like a modified Markovich version. It produces voltage from the signal differential (delay line effect) and obtains its voltage from that.

@GK,

You might want to try using capacitors in place of the resistors this may improve output and reduce heating. I was thinking about this during work today. This is another item I would like to test, but since you are a few steps ahead of me you can try this now if you like. Check the frequency of the signal coming from the collector that is connected to the resisitor. Then calculate the capacitance to allow passage of the signal.

BTW,

My parts were waiting for me when I got home today!!!

Finished my control coils last night now to form them and wrap my feedback coils. Should be right there with you real soon!

Gonna be a busy weekend!
