Thanks Neil. I'm working on getting this new transistor design up and running within the next two weeks. For my own sake, I can make the 20 watt and 40 watt versions use the same topology (since the major differences are limited to the transistor and input protection fuse). Current limiting for the specific application can also be adjusted by changing the current sense resistor, as the TPS40211 is a current mode controller. Stay tuned!
