RE: reduce heat in switching Power supply with half wave

hi Pete,

I don't think the step down will reduce the heat, though it may make the PS a bit more durable. My trying to use half wave is just to reduce the DC voltage before being convert to high freq, and in any case, just to find out if it will work or if the PS will oscilate. Of course, this PS is relatively big, so if it oscilate, there is risks! Once I added a filter coil between the first stage high voltage DC and the wave form converter, the PS oscilated, I need to add another cap after the coild to stop the osc. Well, I know that will happen then. except I did not try enough to know what LC combination i sneed ot avaiod osc.

Best rgds

William
