    That page does not look too problematic. But since the US set many
    foreign DCDC controller manufacturers on a blacklist earlier this
    year, a lot of manufacturers have problems and many design are no
    longer produced.

    Nice part, but I need isolation. And I don't need much regulation.

    I need a simple half-bridge or full-bridge oscillator/driver chip. One
    of the Ixys gate drivers might work.

    I've x-rayed the commecial dc/dc converters and they are usually
    hairball discrete transistor things. The Murata mouse-bite PCBs, with
    the internal magnetics, are slick.

    I was thinking about IXDI602. It's a schmitt inverter so would

    gate oscillator to it. Or even a sot-23 MEMS oscillator.

    One IXD could do half or full bridge. Brutes.

    No, forget the amplidynes and just mechanically couple the engine to a

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_woofer

    Even better, fit a fast servo to modulate the pitch of the bypass fan
    blades on a turbofan jet engine.

    "Regular concert goers judged that the best sound balance was usually to
    be heard from within large concrete bunkers some thirty-seven miles away
    from the stage, whilst the musicians themselves played their instruments
    by remote control from within a heavily insulated spaceship which stayed
    in orbit around the planet - or, more frequently, around a completely

    Diesel powered amplidynes could drive the big woofers at rock

    No, forget the amplidynes and just mechanically couple the engine to a
    rotary woofer:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_woofer

    Even better, fit a fast servo to modulate the pitch of the bypass fan
    blades on a turbofan jet engine.

    "Regular concert goers judged that the best sound balance was usually to
    be heard from within large concrete bunkers some thirty-seven miles away
    from the stage, whilst the musicians themselves played their instruments
    by remote control from within a heavily insulated spaceship which stayed
    in orbit around the planet - or, more frequently, around a completely
    different planet. "

    How about a big tank of very high pressure air, like 5000 PSI maybe,
    and a fast servo valve? That would be loud.

    If the gas were an oxygen-propane mixture, and you ignite it, thermal expansion would add pressure gain.

    That sounds like an audiophool product.

    There is the distortion issue. We can pressurize without limit, but we
    can only rareify to zero PSIA. Most rock fans wouldn't notice.
