Bridge rectifier

2012-07-12 by BILL S

Hi Group,

i'm after picture of The PCB layout of a Full wave Bridge rectifier that appeared in the 1982 and 1985 edition of the ARRL Handbook, does anyone have a copy they can send to me or a link to it 

Thanks heaps

Kevin

If all you want is a bridge rectifier, what do you need a PCB layout for? Is there any reason not to use an off the shelf monolithic part?

A basic PCB Layout for 4 diodes as a bridge rectifier is nothing special either.

Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Re: Bridge rectifier

2012-07-20 by Here i am

Thanks for the Responses,
 
the reason i am after this specific Layout is i am restoring an old Homebrew Linear Amplifier that was built by a friend of my fathers in the early 90's it is missing this board and i would like to keep it true to his design, yes i could just design my own or buy one but that would defeat the purpose of the resoration.

Hi Kevin

Which amplifier is it? I have a few old ARRL Handbooks here. Will have 
to dig them out but happy to check to see if I have one with the amp in, 
They repeated the designs over several years so it may be in others 
apart from 82 and 85.

Thanks Paul,

The amp was built from an article in the September 1982 CQ magazine called how to build the DX-811a, I have that article along with the amp that he built, minus rectifier board he did tell me a while ago that he used the board the article suggested and cut it himself, im just having trouble finding it

Kevin

For what it's worth; the Radio Shack part no. is still used by Radio Shack.  They may have re-cycled it, but it still is listed as "printed circuit board"
