Re: [neonixie-l] Help needed with taylor 1363 smps
Thanks!!,I tried out a computer type atx supply feeding the 1363 @5-12vdc and it was super quiet,I really appreciate you repairing the unit I fried,I will be purchasing quite a few more as these are perfect for the projects I do,thanks again for a great product and outstanding service On Wed, Jul 17, 2013 at 4:38 PM, taylorjpt j...@tayloredge.com wrote: .whew,john taylor has got me out of the woods on this one,I had the pinout backwards,its rather confusing but problem solved(although I did render one unit garbage)I guess $13 isn't to bad a price to pay for learning the hard way Tony: No problem, and remember to send the cooked unit back for repair...

Re: [neonixie-l] Help needed with taylor 1363 smps
Hello all and greetings from a new member and first time poster,I'm trying to figure out how to use these little 1363 smps from taylor electronic,I've tried using it in this configuration always on,I'm using a 9vdc 1000ma wallwart and have the +(plus) wire going to Vn and enable and the -(minus) wire going to ground but I get nothing out of the HV out,can anyone with expierience with these please for the sake of my sanity please show/tell me how I get these things to work,it looks simple but I just can't get it to work,thanks much in advance Sounds like it should work, yes. Here's what I would check if I were doing it. I'd check that wall wart to see if it was producing clean DC - many of them just give half-wave rectified DC with no filtering or regulation. Adding a capacitor (to filter and smooth it out) will help if this is the case, and adding a voltage regulator can help even more. That particular module doesn't like being turned on and off rapidly, so half-wave DC will make it unhappy. I'd also make sure I have the pinout right - an ohmmeter can verify that what are supposed to be the ground pins are all connected together. - John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups neonixie-l group.
