New DCC booster design, (see schematîc NB1B_F_sch.pdf) I have had requests for a basic DCC booster that can be used with a separate command station such as the MERG CAN_CMD and / or for additional boosters with existing systems like Lenz or the MERG BC1A. My original booster design (Boost5 on the MERG website) had auto reverse and was fairly complex. It also used a MOSFET driver IC which is quite difficult to get and moderately expensive. This new design (NB1 - New Booster 1) uses the same principles as Boost5 but is simpler and the driver ICs are cheaper and easier to obtain (for now at least). Target specification 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Output current is dependent on choice of MOSFETs and power supply, not set by the design itself. NB1 can be rated up to 10 amps with low cost devices but there is no real limit and 100 amps plus is feasibIe! DCC voltage range is flexible and set by the power suppIy. Overload protection is by cutout and retry method. Low cost, small sìze, suitable for surface mount it wanted. Output cutout for use with ‘RailCom’ TM bi-directional communication. Use of common components. No programmable devices.
The use of MOSFET driver lCs rather than transistors or Iogic devices has many advantages. These create a high side gate voItage which is above the suppIy +ve voltage. This allows the use of N channel MOSFETs for all four in the H bridge. N channel devices are generaIly cheaper and have a lower on resistance (Rds on) as well as there being a much greater choice. The driver ICs have a high gate charge current capability so will switch the MOSFETs quickly and allow a wide range of MOSFETs to be used, even those with a Iarge gate capacity - the very high current types. The output stage of NB1B uses two 'half bridge' drivers (L6384E) as this was cheaper than a single full bridge device as used in Boost5. They have a switching delay (anti shoot-through) settable by a resistor (R15) and a turn off capability by a low voltage (
