When you place diodes in parallel, if one gets slightly warmer than the mwnual, the warmer diode will conduct more than its cooler neighbor. May 18, Not too much in there but you can never have too much info. Because the ground conductors are also of different gauges wire size the DC return current from manuao radio is now also going to be trying to share the connection through the earth ground system.įor example, the RSA can deliver up to 35 amps at These factors also allow some repeater owners to know the most vulnerable points in the design of common power supplies. The blue 1k pot above the regulator can be used to adjust the output voltage. If Astron had the schematic library on their web site we wouldn’t need to.
The annotations were originally written in. Here is an annotated schematic of the Astron RSM detailing the workings of the various parts of the Astron circuit. Family of RS supplies – all the same design Astron RSM Astron is inconsistent – some do, and some don’t.
