Doepfer A-100 diy kit 1

The A-100 DIY kit #1 is a combination of components that allows the inexpensive do-it-yourself construction of a case for the A-100:

• power supply with external transformer (AC output)

• because of safety reasons, no dangerous voltages accessible inside the case

• max. current: 1200mA (same specifications as PSU2, but external transformer instead of ring core transformer)

• 2 bus boards

• four 84 HP front rails (~ 427 mm length) for mounting of the modules, incl. 8 mounting screws

• about 160 M3 nuts which have to be inserted into the front rails (as the nuts can be slided to any position even modules of other manufacturer with different position of the mounting holes can be assembled without gaps)

• cable for connections between power supply and bus boards

• sketches with measures (for drilling the holes at the right positions for PSU and bus board mounting)

• building suggestion for wooden case (sketch + list of all required wooden case parts)

• additional installation material like screws, nuts or distant bolts (e.g. for bus boards, power supply board, rails) is not included as these parts depend upon the type of case built by the customer

• to operate the kit an external transformer with 14-16V/2.4A AC is required, the current of the transformer has to be twice the value of the +/-12V DC current, the max. value is 2.4A (corresponding to 1200mA for +/-12V DC), even smaller current output is possible; the current output of the power supply is half the current of the external transformer as the currents for both voltages +/-12V are required (if e.g. the transformer outputs max. 1000mA the max. power supply current is 500mA for +/-12V)

• Prices:

  • complete kit with transformer (15V AC / 2500 mA, version for 230V or 115V version available, please specify the required voltage when you order): Euro 150.00

  • complete kit without transformer: Euro 120.00

  • A-100 DIY PSU power supply board only (without transformer): Euro 75.00

  • transformer only (15V AC / 2500 mA, 230V version with European main plug or 115V version with US mains plug available, built-in mains switch, AC output via small voltage connector with 2.1/5.5 mm inner/outer diameter): Euro 50.00
    Transformers for other mains voltages or other mains plug types are not available from Doepfer ! To operate the kit an external transformer with 14-16V/2.5A AC is required, please ask the Doepfer representative in your country if they have a transformer available that is suitable for the mains voltage and mains plug in your country. A suitable transformer for the US market is manufactured by Triad Magnetics and has the product name WAU16-2400 (16V AC / 2.4A). It is available from several electronic shops like Mouser, Digikey, Newark, Farnell and others.

  • additional profile set (two anodized aluminium mounting profiles (front rails), ~ 427 mm long, incl. mounting screws, to expand the kit by another row): Euro 30.00

  • additional bus board (to expand the kit by another row): Euro 30.00

• the technical document for the DIY kits is available as pdf file
