Overview

Supply is an open-source printed circuit board by Supermagnum, from the Supermagnum/48power repository on GitHub, published under the CC0-1.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 70 × 54.5 mm with 39 parts on 28 nets, routed with 201 tracks and 4 vias.

It is built around the LM5157RTE, MJ-3536 and SB130-T, with the TE6-1A-DC-1-PB and YPEL6250T among its other parts. Its parts include 12 capacitors, 9 connectors, 7 resistors, 2 ICs and 2 diodes.

48power

A small PCB that supplies +48 volt phantom power to a balanced audio system. It also has audio out to mono headphone. It uses a LM51571QRTERQ1 to boost the voltage from a 9V battery to +48 V and a Hammond Manufacturing 108F Audio transformer.

Datasheet for the transformer: https://github.com/Supermagnum/48power/blob/main/108F(1).pdf

Datasheet for LM51571QRTERQ1 in WQFN (16) package : https://github.com/Supermagnum/48power/blob/main/lm51571-q1.pdf

Component selection according to Texas Instruments calculator: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Supermagnum/48power/main/WBSchematicXLM5157QRTERQ1.svg

Now also with a small mono amplifier, with adjustable volume ( potentiometer ).

LM386 datasheet: https://github.com/Supermagnum/48power/blob/main/lm386(2).pdf

Please use metal film resistors, 1% tolerance or better. High quality capacitors, audio grade ceramic X7R or better.

All component values is on the pdf file: https://github.com/Supermagnum/48power/blob/main/supply.pdf There is only one SMD component.

The PCB board is to be mounted inside a metal box, on metal standoffs. Ø2mm bolts with nuts can be used. The components on the PCB must not touch the metal box. The XLR cable shield must be connected to the metal box. No of the internal leads should at any time be connected to the metal box. Use a Ø4mm cable that has shield and 3 conductors. A 3 pin XLR connector is wired up like this: https://github.com/Supermagnum/piezo-balanced/blob/main/XLR%2BConnector%2BPinout%2BDiagram%2BRear%2BPin%2B2%2BHot%2Bv2%2Bgreen__01.jpg

NOTE:
The XLR 3 pin plug has a solder lug for the shield for a reason. It is my opinion that a shielded cable with 3 conductors inside is the best. Suggested cable: Digi-Key Part Number:30-01225-5-ND

Questions

How big is the Supply PCB?

It measures 70 × 54.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Supply use?

39 parts, built around the LM5157RTE, MJ-3536, SB130-T and TE6-1A-DC-1-PB. 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 Supply KiCad files?

From the Supermagnum/48power repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is supply.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Supply design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC0-1.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
