This simple power supply unit was designed for use with the EPROM Programmer Mark 2. It is equally suitable for powering the EPROM Emulator.

How it Works.
The circuit is shown in figure *. Transformer X1 produces 6V AC from the mains input. This is rectified by D1 and D2, and smoothed by C1 giving about 8.5V DC. IC1 is a standard three pin 5V regulator, which does just that!
For the 12.6V supply, we have used a voltage doubler circuit (D3, D4, C5 and C6) giving about 16V. This is regulated by a 12V regulator, with a diode (D5) in the ground lead to increase the voltage by 0.6V. EPROMs require either 12.5V or 12.75V with a tolerance of 0.25V for programming. 12.6V will comply with either of these requirements.
Advertisement
A 6V transformer was used to reduce the power dissipation in the 5V regulator, IC1. A voltage doubler circuit operates very well when a lower current is required, as is the case with the 12.6V rail.
Construction.
All the components except the transformer are mounted on a small PCB. The component overlay is shown in figure *. No heatsinks are required for the intended use. If you are likely to use the unit for other purposes, it would be a good idea to fit a heatsink on IC1.
The prototype was fitted in a small plastic box, 80 x 80 x 55mm. This was rather a tight squeeze, so something a little larger is recommended.
The mains input arrives via a length of 2 core mains flex. The DC output is connected to a 6 pin DIN plug via a length of 3 core mains flex. A matching 6 pin DIN socket is fitted on the EPROM Programmer and other.
