Home-made UBEC - 08.22.2005, 03:29 PM

Right now I am working on making my own UBEC. This is NOT a linear regulator as I have used in the past. This is a switching regulator, similar to the Kool Flight Systems UBEC. I haven't ordered the parts yet, but I will soon. If this design works well and doesn't cause radio interference, I may consider selling this. Parts cost is about $13 including all wires/connectors. The specs are:
-Up to 40volts input (30 cells)
-3 amps continuous output
-Switching regulator about 80% efficient
-5v ouput (I could try the adjustable version to get 6v, but that uses more parts)
-Minimum 8cells
