Before You Start
This kit assumes an understanding of electronics, soldering, and operation of hand tools. In addition to
basic hand tools, the following items will be required for proper assembly.
PCB Assembly:
Soldering Iron
†
Electronic Solder
‡
7/64” Drill Bit (Installation of SPACER1, SPACER2, SPACER3, SPACER4)
1/4” Drill Bit (Lead-Forming of Q1, U1, Q5)
3/8” Drill Bit (Lead-Forming of Q4, Q6)
Scrap Piece of Wood (Installation of SPACER1, SPACER2, SPACER3, SPACER4)
Needle-Nose Pliers
Diagonal Cutting Pliers
Wire Stripper
PCB Assembly to Heat Sink:
Heat Sink (See Page 49 for Suggested Sources)
Power Drill
#4-40 Tap (Mounting Holes in Heat Sink)
#42 Drill Bit (Mounting Holes in Heat Sink)
Masking Tape
Transfer Punch
Bias Adjustment:
48VDC Power Supply
Ammeter (Capable of 400mA)
Several Jumper Wires w/ Alligator Clips
Please take a few minutes before you begin assembling to review the entire assembly &
adjustment procedure.
A few things to remember during the assembly:
Several components in this design are sensitive to static electricity. Precautions should be taken to
avoid static buildup during assembly by using a grounded workstation mat and wrist band.
References are made to the top and bottom side of the PCB. The top side contains the printed
reference designators and component outlines. Most components are inserted from top and
soldered from the bottom. Follow the specific instructions given in each assembly step.
If at any time, you are unsure how to perform an assembly step or have a question, email us for
assistance at telstar.electronics@comcast.net
†
35W-65W recommended. Temperature controlled soldering equipment is always preferred.
‡
Solder recommendation is Kester 331. This solder has a flux that can be washed off with warm tap-water.

Assembly Instructions
Step #1 - Spacer (SPACER1, SPACER2, SPACER3, SPACER4)
Locate the four positions on the bottom of the PCB where the spacers will be attached. (Figure 1)
Drill a 7/64” hole into a scrap piece of wood.
With the aid of the 7/64” drill bit, position the drill bit shank
§
through a spacer and through the
hole in the PCB into the piece of wood below. The drill bit will aid in centering the spacer on the
PCB hole during the soldering process. (Figure 2)
IMPORTANT - MAKE CERTAIN THE SPACERS ARE FLAT AGAINST THE BOTTOM SIDE OF THE PCB
BEFORE SOLDERING INTO POSITION. USE A MINIMAL AMOUNT OF SOLDER
MAKING CERTAIN NOT TO OBSTRUCT THE CENTER OF THE SPACER.
Solder spacers into position.
Figure 1
§
The drill bit shank is the solid portion that does not contain the spiral cutting flutes.

Step #2 - Fixed Resistor (R1-R28)
IMPORTANT - FIXED RESISTORS HAVE NO POLARITY AND CAN BE INSTALLED IN EITHER
DIRECTION. MAKE CERTAIN THE RESISTORS ARE FULLY SEATED IN THE PCB
BEFORE SOLDERING.
Install resistors into the PCB at the designated locations. (Figure 3)
Solder resistors into position.
Cut off the excess lead length.
