Hi, been trying to get to what constitutes a fully linear power supply.
I don't have many pedals to power so I'm looking at the VL Iso-5, which has it's method of operation stated as " Linear regulation and toroidal transformer for lowest possible noise"
Does that mean fully Linear, completely non-switching?
In the mountains of hype out there on the net, on various ps units, there is a lot of blurb about toroid-regulated or similar, which I take to mean switching with inductors for smoothing or something.
Anyway: VL seems to stake it's claim on pure Linear, and I just wanted someone to confirm that the Iso-5 unit is that, before purchase.
Oh, and if it isn't, which of the VL power units is the smallest/ fewest outputs-- that IS purely linear?
Thanks very much for any clarification.
simple question about linear power
Re: simple question about linear power
Yes, Pedal Power ISO-5 is "purely" linear (it's not switch-mode) and so are: Pedal Power 2 Plus, Pedal Power 4 x 4, Pedal Power Digital and Pedal Power Mondo.
