Excellent, so am I. I'm still on the Winter 09 version since upgrades either mess up my custom or the factory devices. I've been burned twice with wrong N2222 pinouts. I haven't paid for 2011 upgrades yet, hopefully they won't drop me when I renew.

I think you meant:

I'll wait until you're ready to annotate the parts before diving in there too much. You're still working on it but are you planing on a -15V rail to turn off the IGBTs? If you haven't decided the source analog devices , I'd like to recommend Linear Tech as they have excellent documentation and parts can be purchased in small quantities directly from their websites.
