New game - I'll pay AUS $25 to the person who can come up with the best DC to DC converter design. It should be low in cost, capable of producing at least 10mA @7V (~70mW of power) from a 5V source. Additional, desirable criteria in the design would include: compactness, protection, low component count, efficient, testable & robust.
<b>The Contest</b>
<ul>
<li> Submit in this thread, a workable, readable circuit diagram</li>
<li> It must be your own original work</li>
<li> You may submit ONE design only (no amendments allowed)</li>
<li> The design can't use a µcontroller or discrete ICs</li>
<li> A detailed description on how your design works would be beneficial</li>
<li> All entries must be submitted by the 31st of October</li>
<li> The Winner will be announced in early November </li>
</ul>
Oh! - and feedback from people on the entries will be highly regarded, and also possibly used in helping to identify the winner, so don't hold back!

Hi, trent
Just use your OSC output to drive a common 1 transistor voltage doubler ... ( just need 1 NPN, 1 PNP, 3 resistor, 2 diodes, 2 capacitors )

PS : 25 $ for that ... ??? where did you learn electronics ????????????????????????????????

Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

IF there is the word "Problem" in your question ...
certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!
