Does the Ambika only works with an AC power Supply?
Ambika is done, but no Power supply available. Too bad.
yes itās made to work with AC only (without modification). you donāt have a transformer so you could at least try it?
9V AC ; 600mA at least
Thats the problem. I throw them all away. I thought āIāll never use themā.
I have a transformer here and built one at the moment. Problem is only ~15 Volt.
Is this a problem ? Normally only the Regulators should getting a little bit warmer.
Warmer yes, āa little bitā no. I donāt recommend 12V AC, so 15V AC will make them scorching hot. If you have only one voicecard in place⦠maybeā¦
I see, I must order one.
Any recommendation for where to find a good one by the way ?
Iām struggling to find anything with more than 500ma and a 2.1mm barrel connector.
i was recommended one here on the forums a while ago, works fine. you should find it with a quick search.
Thank you.
Actually Iāve also just found this one for UK and Europe:

I recommend the Henri Electronic one. If you insist on feeding 15v heres a tip: Plexi smells a bit like garlic when it melts, just a moment before it starts to burn.
Would that one work?
(Iām not even sure itās a power supply lol)
No, wonāt work, this one has DC output.
ok, thanks. Should I conclude that there is none at Mouser, otherwise you would have provided a ref, thatās it?
Someone has found one, but I donāt have the ref.

2 items, but only for north america, 120V input :-/
Maplin do an adjustable-voltage AC PSU, if youāre in the UK. Works fine for me. Only potential downside is it has a super-bright LED on it (mine does, anyway, though the photo on the website shows a red one).

I didnāt find anything for UK or Europe on Mouser.
The only one meeting the specsIāve found with a UK plug is the one from Rapid that Iāve linked above.
@toneburst that is 500ma though, pichenettes recomends > 600mA
so this one is the one I need ?
Actually, the output current is too weak on this one.
