Hi bill_gj,
here is the schematic of the circuit. This example can deliver 5A at 15V (transformer output voltage 12V) without heat sinks on the transistors. The transformer used must have a center tap (AC2).
Using a solenoid transformer and two IRFZ48N you can go as high as 27V output voltage (with load connected) at 10A. In that case the transistors require a small heat sink. (The max voltage is the supply voltage restriction for safe operation of the OpAmp, (32V))
Using a TLC272 instead of the AD822 OpAmp use the original TI-manufactured IC. It is the only one which switches to zero, which is a must for the circuit function.
Measuring points 1, 2 and 3 are given for best adjustment. Adjust 50 - 100mV (no DMM! Oscilloscope only!) between 1 and 2, respecetively 1 and 3 with pots P1 and P2.
The circuit uses the parasitic diodes in the transistors to gain the supply voltage for the OpAmp, which is already present after the first AC cycle.
And yes, N-channel MosFets are more widespread than P-channel types, hence they are to be cheaper.
If you PM me your email address I'll send the Eagle files, including schematic, PCB-layout (single sided) and BOM. I'll translate the circuit description from German to English for you, too.
