Anyway I want to implement the current limiting feature of the SG3524 chip but since the output is remote the current limiting will have to be referenced to the input current, voltage divider or some such thing. Can't remember if the 24 chip has soft start or just the 35 chip.
I only need to lower the coils frequency to 470 Khz to be able to use the SG3525 chip which is much better as you are aware. I won't go ahead and do anything just yet so if you have any more suggestions they are always appreciated. The SG3524 chip is good but it has different outputs to the 3525 chip. And that is where it failed, it actually spat out some melted plastic from between the outputs area.
From memory the 3525 chip can run from 35 volts but still only pulses out 12 volts from it's output's but the 3524 chip has transistor outputs that collect from the supply rail and emmit the output.I think my best bet is to improve my toroid terminals and maybe wind some new bigger diameter coil "A's" and coil "C's" I've got two different set's of Extra Coil "B's" so that would give me two complete sets of two coils.
A below 470 Khz set (I hope about 420Khz) which I can use a SG3525 PWM with and an above 1 Mhz set
. If I set up the lower frequency set as transmitter and receiver then I might be able to get the other two tuned to work from a harmonic of them maybe the third harmonic. Maybe that is just silly but I'll find that out the hard way I guess. Cheers
Time for an early spring clean and a big parts salvaging effort to reduce the amount of expired electrical equipment laying around. Wish me luck I could get buried in a "parts slide".

, i kind of derailed the subject...got a little over excited, but i stand by what i wrote....
