Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Power supply

Matt,

First go to the geckodrive web page at www.geckodrive.com and download the
white paper. It will give you most of the information that you are looking
for.

Basically you are looking for a 48V transformer at about 5 amps at the most.
A fileter capacitor, a bridge rectifer plus a resistor to drain off the
charge when you turn the power supply off.

www.mouser.com should have what you need.
