I also looked at Taylor's board and a few things stand out between the two. Yes his board is much smaller, but you need external components for voltage adjust. Mine is on board with a 2mm pot for adjustment in the range of the selected voltage. I.E. 100 to 50 or 150 to 200. his enable is either

Hi, Just a small update and shameless plug:) My driver board is now available for sale; This will drive a very wide variety of nixies including 8 B7971s. That version is working, by the way, and a short video is on my site. The PCB artwork and enclosure will be available via batchpcb and ponoko

I'm guessing he's using the 34063 for regulation, perhaps the HV transistors are cutting the output voltage? Jason? I use a 34063 circuit on my Nixie clocks, and get anywhere from 60-82% efficiency depending on component selection. The max output would depend on rating of the inductor, hv

Michael, You are correct. i have my enable going to a mpsa42 that is providing ground to a mpsa92. the hv output goes through the a92. I am using an IPD60R380C6 650v mosfet with a Id of 30A and a 100uH inductor. past that i have a RS1GFS Diode and 2 .47uf 400 volt caps in parallel. The voltage
