I have a driver that's currently awaiting me buying the parts for.
However, I want to gauge interest on it before dropping any more money into this driver business.
Don't say or comment anything except if you would buy something like what I'm bringing to the table.
Okay. That being said.
11.99 mm by 9.25 mm. Roughly flexdrive size.
Reverse polarity protection built in.
Capability of boosting to extremely high voltages (we're talking upwards of 36 volts, limited only by the current sense amp. However I would have to use different components if you wanted this.)
Ridiculous current handling capability. Everything on the board should be capable of 5+ amps. Yes, you read that right. 5+ amps.
Adjustable. Across the entire range of what this driver should handle. No soldering, no flicking little 0603 resistors across the room.
Centered output and input pads, both fully labeled. Wanna hook it up right to the diode? Feel free.
Super soft start. Signature of all my other driver boards.
Sounds expensive, right?
Nah.
Low cost. About $21. It may vary + or - a few, since I do not know how hard these will be to reflow. But it won't be more than $24. I can promise that.
And, yes, to all of the naysayers, I understand that this may not be a reality. The current capability is a guess, based off of the datasheet numbers and capability of the components. I fully understand, this MAY not actually be the values that come out of the completed boards. I am quite confident about it's ability, though. I've designed the driver and designed it well, no cutting corners on this.
There WILL be more revisions to the boards, that I'm almost certain of.
However, I NEED to know if people would be interested in this, otherwise I'm not even going to get the components. I NEED to know if I build these, that people will want them in their builds.
I NEED to know, if anyone here wants these, period.
Edit;
Pictures.
