Hi,

Thought I would string a few words together about what's happening right now and what people can expect in the future from PSUD.

PSUD3 is still very much on the go, with a number of key features being implemented:

CODE COMPLETED

• Rectifier database built into the software
• Rectifier curve fit to make your own from datasheets (Solver)
• Totally rewritten calculation engine with much better accuracy

IN DEVELOPMENT

• New "splitter" filter to allow your power feed to split into two or more threads, each with their own filtering and load
• Ability to mix rectifiers within a supply (e.g. bridge with 2 x vacuum tube rectifiers and 2 x solid state)
• Schottky rectifiers
• Lots of charting improvements
• Dozens more minor things

Hope the update is useful. I have a day job and an impending house move so don't get as much time as I would like for this, however I do try and spend some time on it each week :)

Finally, a couple of screen shots of the new rectifier database showing how data sheet information is used to create or validate a rectifier model.

Duncan
