A niche chip (LT4320) for mains powered AC -> low volt DC "linear" based psu ?
necessaryevil:
The LT4320 DIP version is available!
I asked them about the DIP-version, it turned out that they simply forgot to set to flag the part as active! It's now on their website and it will be available on digikey soon.
I made a 2 layer PCB design with the help of some people on a dutch forum. Should be able to handle 15 amps. I'll order a small batch on itead.

Well, that'll help with heat dissipation in the IC, and that slightly tricky thermal pad.

With the FETs I've tested, max 2.5mR RDSon, 15A is a piece of cake. 16-20A and you start to need to think about some heatsinking.
They should be good to 30A. I've only done short bursts to that, and all looked OK.

hey digsys, have you tried it above 600hz?

Sorry no. I didn't buy the higher freq version, as I mainly work in 50-60Hz. But we do have some systems running 400Hz,
so next test run.

Ok, doesn't particularly matter if you buy the high spec or not, I am more interested in this things limits, i already know mosfets are good high current switches. :P
