Hi all- I have been doing some reading up on boost converters and VFD power supplies, but as a beginner who has yet to build a VFD clock from scratch, I wanted to reach out to the more experienced members on this list to see if there was a through hole / beginner friendly VFD PSU circuit that anyone could recommend. I have built an Ice clock from kit in the past, and reviewed the design behind it, so I have a little experience with the basics. I would prefer to start with a circuit that doesn't involve a microcontroller like a PIC or Atmel driving the PSU.
I am interested in building a IV-11 clock from scratch, and have Maxim 1771s, inductors around 1000 uH, and IRFD220s on hand but am open to ordering whatever parts I need. I'm most interested in solutions for generating the grid voltage, but ideally am looking for a nice circuit for both grid and filament. I've also seen MC34063s mentioned as a solution for the anode voltage. Any help would be appreciated. I was hoping someone might have a favorite circuit they are willing to share.
