Coil Speedifyer

This circuit can be used to interrupt current into a coil and, by allowing the emf to peak to a tunable value, speed up the turn off. The main limitations are:

  1. Reduced duty cycle: that can be changed by using a different driver circuit for the MOSFET. It turns out it was not necessary for our application
  2. Speed limited by the voltage rating of the MOS. This can be changed by selecting different MOSFET (Including SiC)

Questions

How big is the Coil speedifier PCB?

It measures 149.9 × 87.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Coil speedifier use?

33 parts, built around the PDS1-S15-S15-M and LTV-817. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Coil speedifier KiCad files?

From the restelli/Coil_speedifier repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Coil_speedifier.kicad_pcb and its schematic Coil_speedifier.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Coil speedifier design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask restelli before reusing the design.
