Hi, I would like to add a voltage doubler and a -ve voltage output to my power supply. I modified my LTSpice simulation by following the schematic at https://threeneurons.wordpress.com/nixie-power-supply/ (Adding Multiple Voltages) to add the extra output stages, but I am not getting the expected results. One difference is that I am using a flyback transformer rather than an inductor. It seems that the un-rectified output from the transformer goes negative, and this additional voltage is being added to the output. Here is the output part of the schematic (sorry it is a bit chaotic):

If I subtract the -62V, then I get -143V (i.e. close to -148V). - Outdouble is 351V. If I add the -62V I get 289V (i.e. roughly double the 148V). Is there something wrong with how I am trying to apply what threeneurons shows? Is this just how it is with flyback power supplies? Is there something amiss with my simulation? I don't now where to start to think about this, so any help would be very appreciated. Thanks - Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
