Re: FS: LM1117 Based Linear Driver - 1.3A Fixed

The next batch of 4 should be ready by Fri Feb. 4 at the latest.

Danafex and Tonga your drivers have shipped. :beer:

I take it from the pictures that these drivers arent mountable? If i wanted to krazy glue the driver down, would that be fine with these?
 
Re: FS: LM1117 Based Linear Driver - 1.3A Fixed

You do need to mount it on a surface that will heatsink them with a thermal adhesive like Artic Alumina. What are you mounting it to?
 
Re: FS: LM1117 Based Linear Driver - 1.3A Fixed

Well, i wanted to mount it to a flat and thin aluminum surface.

If i wanted to make my own, do i just need the LM1117 and a 1ohm resistor to get 1.2A?
Thanks,

Matt

That should be good for mounting, i can include a strip of sekisui thermal tape if you want, but its not as good as filling all the gaps with thermal adhesive.

1 Ohm gets you 1.25A. The 10uF caps on the input an output are required for the LM1117 since it is a Low Drop Out type of regulator ... it keeps the driver stable.

Oh okay, well then ill just wait for you to finish yours. And its fine, ill just purchase some thermal epoxy

Got my drivers today :D Many thanks Jib77 - the packaging is excellent, everything is identified clearly AND Jib threw in a few extra unexpected goodies.

I will be ordering more drivers from you in the very near future, thanks again :beer:

^ ^ Hi Extrion... Do you mind telling me what you're firing in what looks to be an unfinished room in your avatar? It appears to be some sort of laser gun, something the idea of building often wakes me in the night.

hey jib, what type of shipping do you provide to send out these drivers?

thanks!,

Thanks, now I just need drivers for the 3 empty hosts and 5 diodes or so I have laying around and I will be on my way to my next builds.
 
Re: FS: LM1117 Based Linear Driver - 1.3A Fixed

I would like those 2. Can I go ahead and pay now?
