purcinela:
I will try to go in to a bit more details.The plan is to feed 240 AC in to a bridge rectifier and end up with about 215 volts DC.This will go in to a "3 stage PnP mosfet cascade" M1,M2,M3.I'm plannig of using a reducing factor of 2,so M1 will will go from 215 to about 108 V,M2 from 108 V to 54 V and M3 from 54 V to about 27 V.Each gate will be triggered with restors R1,R2 and R3.There will be a small value capacitor "before" the resistors to try and stabilize the voltage at the gates.The problem i have is that i can;t find anywhere something similar and because if that i think this circuit dose not work or is very hard to stabilize the PnP cascade.Any ideas?!
Scary story. Don't do anything stupid like this.
Things connected to the mains need galvanic isolation.
Linear/resistive dropping to get 24volt/2Amp from 230volt AC could generate about 600watt in the transistors.
You would need a fan-assisted heatsink the size of a shoebox to keep things cool.
Buy the eggs (24volt switch-mode supply).
