I have a number of these small and compact O’traki power supplies in both sizes:
They won’t win me any style points on TGP but they are pretty quiet and I like their size. Also, since I make my own boards out of wood, I like the mounting flanges.
The one thing that bugs me a bit is the combination of outlets on each. I really love the small one but it doesn’t have an 18 vDC output. I like the big one as well because of the 12 and 18 vDC outlets but it only has one 500 mA 9 vDC outlet.
I had a few spares so I cracked one open last night to see what was going on:
I reached out to the Amazon seller I buy them from last night. Basically told a little white lie about outputs on both sizes having failed on me and could I get a schematic.
I’d like to get an idea on what’s going on so I can maybe modify some of the outputs to better reflect what I want. Especially in the smaller size, which I’m using right now on my boards.
Can anyone make heads or tails of some of the components?
