@axillent greate work ! It is very hard to order transformers... My congratulations! Can you share the pcb for the review :) ?

@axillent I can't see the gerbers or sources of the latest board (din shape). I've seen your transformers on ali. It is perfect. I need auxiliary coil for my projects so I should place custom order on the factory.
@koresh if you need gerber let me know, i will download. I need to note that DIN is designed for a particular design of the cover
Share please where it is possible to order customized transformers.
I do have all things to build transformers myself. It is an alternative way

EE10-A1
Congratulations! It can replace the HLK-PM01 that we are using a lot here. Is it possible for you to share the schematics ?

@jeremushka for sure
schematic is standard, simplified version from datasheet
D8, D11 and R22 are optional, it is to be able to source power from different sources (for example different phases, or from main power and from generator).
D12 I'm using 11V to have output at about 12.1V

Thanks. What is the purpose of the inductor at the output of the circuit? why not to use one also after the bridge rectifier?

Everyone is need some kind of power supply for the project. Some time AC-DC is needed.
From a few years of hobby I did a following list for myself:- list item isolated AC-DC
1.1 purchased as adapter
1.2 purchased in separate box
1.3 purchased to be put on PCB - nonisolated AC-DC
2.1 soldered capacitor based
2.2 soldered switching inductor less
2.3 soldered switching with inductor
More or less a coprehensive listm, with proc and cons depending of the project.
I prefer to solder things, but you see that I put all isolated as purchased. It is all about transformers.
I'm scared about transformers - you need to properly design it, you need to wire it and build.Now I can tell that I do not scared any more)
But to simplify start I ordered transformers build for the 5/12V output at power up to 3W. It is best sutable for most of my applications.

A testing board was created:

soldered and tested:


result of test as expected. at 13V output I coould get 3W of power with moderated heating
schematic is based on LNK364
By next step I will order PCB for my DIN Rail LEGO project:

inductor at output is to reduce riple
on hight voltage side will be better to put filter but there is no place for it
inductor as such will not bring too much value -

some questions regarding the schematics:
- does TVS diode 600W 5V is efficient enough? or absolutely need cut off at 160V such as 600W 160A ?
- for the Fuse, a slow fuse 10A is enough i think, isn't it?

TVS need to be for 120-160V in case you supply 230V AC. You can refer to linkswitch designer for your specific needs.
The purpose of this TVS is to be a snubber because of inductive load. Instead of TVS an RC snubber could be used.it is 3Watts supply, 0.5-1A slow fuse is fine

Thanks for the answer. i will play with this LNK component. never used it before. I am curious to know the performances of it.
for your design, you have added others functions on your PCB ? such as DC-DC converter ... etc.. ? -

dc-dc is used to feed MCU from 12V -
@axillent, i am designing your board on altium designer. However, i am facing difficulties with the footprint of the transformer. Is it possible to share it or your pcb file?
