Hi Kleinstein,
Try to think more positive, not backwards in design...
He can use his LT1007 opamp's and like you say 2 power sections to distribute the heat, if you do it like i say, 2 extra resistors in the sziklai stage, than its stable, no problemo!
The design dont have to be so fast as my schematic to be good, The LT1007 is a good opamp for a low noise, low Ri power supply.
PowermaxDo not neglect my remarkse about the loopgain and the phase margin!
Why do you think i tell you, to not use the 2N3055.
Yes i know, there are 1000 designs with LM234/LM741 and 2N3055, 1970 electronic's...
If you use more modern stuf like the LT1007 (also old but very good) en modern power transistors, you wil get a low noise and a low Ri powersupply thats not to difficult to build.
Use about 50uF/Ampere output capacitor, for your 5 Ampere design this would be 220 tot 330uF, 50 or 63V and good of quality! say Rubicon brand, lager give you a better dynamic responce but also larger piek currents in your D.U.T. if something goes wrong.
A tip, go read about loopgain and phase margen in power supply design, much more important than the DA converter.
Without good stability of the design, your DA converters are not important
If you use Google translate, read my measurements and remarke's on this Dutch website
