VibroShield: High voltage

gergelytakacs commented 6 years ago

How to get high voltage on the board? Look for ways to step-up the 12 V source. DC-DC converters? Would that be possible?

At the moment I have 2 breakouts in my hand:

One uses the XLSEMI XL6009E1 component, this is rated for 32 V max. Not quite high enough but should do at least something. Would ideally want more. XL6009.pdf This board seem to rhoughly follow the typical application chart in the datasheet.
The other contains a LM2577 and a LM2596 IC. The first, according to its datasheet has a maximum rating of 65 V. The second IC is a step-down regulator and is rated for 37 V. The second breakout is more complicated and has no marking. What is the role of the 2 IC?

Ideally we'd need similar components but with a higher output rating in a similar configuration. For example the TI TPS40210DGQR is rated up to 260 V... Or check this out. For now, @KuboJakub should perform some inital get-to know testing with the available boards. Learn about the category itself, then look for an alternative to generate higher voltages. Ideally, I'd begin with the one using the simpler circuit...

@KuboJakub Also check out this as a beginning.

My first design of hopefully working Step-UP. Just create a high voltage with very small load current. By potentiometer R1 is possible to manipulate with the Vout. Attached Simulink scheme - Simscape electrical library is needed. Steu_UP_convertor2_FixFreqency_FixR.zip
