Hi all,
I want to go from 5Vdc to 350V dc ( +/- 25Vdc). Can anyone inicate a PCB mounted transformer please? or, is there any other suggestion?
Thanks,
D.
 

Hi,
There is a very simple way to do that but it all depands what how you will build that. This is schamtic that i took from Microchip tips and trics is only for 2*Vdd and you can make it even higher voltage if you will add the the connection of the Cpump.
Also, see this link:

Good luck.
 

Thanks gidimiz, the link looks interesting. But the topology is not what I want. Do be more specific I need a transformer to go from 5 to 350. Is there a page I can look for?

here it is. I had got 500V with this simple circuit. The transformer is important, especially when the voltage is high.

Can you explain some more regarding the transformer? How did you obtained 500V from 240 V for instance?
Thanks,

That's quite easy, a voltage doubler circuit with several diodes and capacitors is OK. A ferrite core transformer is required for that circuit, we can buy it at the price of just a few dollars

You can simply use a flyback circuit. It can be besed on one of the several controllers available on the market. For example you can use LM3478.
