6W Inverter for MOS Logic supplies
The inverter is a simple push-pull circuit
which takes advantage of the high
curre nt handling capability of the
ZTX650 range. It oscillates at a
frequency of approximately 25kHz to
allow it to use a very small transformer
(RM6), and also to render the inverter
inaudible. The output characteristics are
given in Figures 2 and 3. Output ripple is
approximately 150mV peak to peak on
both outputs.
The 6W inverter shown in Figure 1 has
been designed to generate the extra
power supplies required by popular
MOS memories from a normal 5V TTL
supply source. It may be used to supply
up to eight 2808 read only memories
which require supplies of +5V, -5V and
+12V, or if the output components of the
12V section are reversed, the circuit will
power over ten 5204 ROMs which
require +5V and -12V supplies.
