I have a circuit that uses +15V, -15 volts and ground. My ac/dc converter churns out +Vo and ground at 15V. Does this mean that I can use these as +15V and -15V resp and the body of the equipment as the ground? I know I can just test the ac/dc converter to see what output I get, but I thought I can verify beforehand. Plus if the ac/dc converter gives me only a +15V and ground, is there a way I could produce a -15V?

Thanks.

 

DC to DC converters are pretty off the shelf. One black box should be able to handle your job.

 

thanks..i tried it and the ac dc converter gives out +15 and -15V..so no trouble...

 

actually the ac/dc converter that i received does not have a dual output and a dual output converter is pretty expensive. a dc/dc converter is expensive too. any solutions?

 

It would help a great deal if you would tell us what your circuits' current requirements are, and what input power you have available.

 

This is part of the circuit i need to build. But I need a +15 and -15V from my ac/dc converter. The converter I have is a Recom ac/dc converter.

My input is an ac 110V. And i have to power the circuit shown above

 

Hello,

Depending on your budget, better look for a dedicated dual powersupply like this one:
