Thanks for your prompt reply David. I have already printed my board for a Teensy 3.6. I have no issues soldering tiny smd components assuming that I can get an LTC22632! I may design a small PCB to super-impose the Teensy 4.1 over the existing footprint and layout. In doing so, I could add the dual DAC on this new adapter board. I can see CS is connected to pin10 but where are CLK and SDI of the LTC2632 connected? I don’t see them in the code. Yes, It would be great if you could post diagram for SCTV-E for Teensy 4.1 please.
Interesting that you are redesigning the transformer. I managed to hand-wire mine and seems to work well. The 6.3V for the heater is the one that I’m not too sure how to calibrate exactly, since the SMPS… It shines a bit too bright at the moment and voltage drops to 2V, so that’s not healthy for the heater filament. I can remove a few turns but not sure what is the ‘exact’ RMS V I’m looking for given the spikes of the SMPS at 100Khz, I’ll continue to experiment on that using a 6.2V 500mA lightbulb to avoid damaging the CRT. Thanks again for updating the schematic when you get a chance, it’ll save me so much time to experiment. > On 10 Jun 2023, at 16:41, David Forbes <nixiebu...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi.
