Tidy up of my honey badger amplifier
Over the past month or two, I’ve finally fixed up some snags that I had when building the honey badger amplifier. When I first built it, I had a difficult time trying to track down dry joint on one of the start boards - it also had a bad IDC connector delivering power to it.
In addition the PSU boards had a fault and needed to be stripped down and moved to new boards. These two changes along with a general tidy up, are documented here.
Building DIYAudio's honey badger amplifier
Over a couple of years, I slowly built out an amplifier based on the DIYaudio honeybadger design. It was an on/off process where I got one part of it working at a time. Starting by building the channels one at a time on a bench PSU.
This project consists of a single large transformer and dual mono PSU boards with 20K capacitance on each channel, an Arduino based control board with soft start, overload protection and DC protection. For this I used an existing design: 21st century protection board.
