    new design need HELP !!!

    Hi Suraj, Yes, if it means cut all the power not only the control power there is of course no problem. However this is not the only way to shut down the SCR. ;D

    DC Motor Speed Modulation

    Alun, Changing the frequency of the PWM can to some degree compensate this loss of torque at low power. To optimise the low rpm torque the frequency must be adjusted to the motor used since two motors don

    Simulation in Linux?

    Hi autir, There is no war here as far as I concern. I know a few persons who are deep into computers and a couple of them use Linux just for testing, but they all have it on a separate partition on their harddrives. None of these

    Digital multimeter powered by adaptor?

    Congratulations to your new computer! I can see the computer salesman cry when you left the shop! When he tells his boss about the deal he is going to be fired for sure, poor guy! $crooge has struck again! ;D ;D Yes I know how you mean, but it

    Simulation in Linux?

    Hi autir, Well, when you buy a new PC (at least here) you get Windows with it if you like it or not and all updates are free. How much cheaper can it be? Last time I checked the

    Digital multimeter powered by adaptor?

    Yes, I think he does. I just checked my Rohde&Schwarz bench multimeter and it has a transformer PSU built in. I wonder how they deal with this problem? The ranges on this meter go way down on both AC and DC ranges.

    Temperature:Speed Timer Circuit?

    OK, as referred to in my last post Ra and Rb decides the ON and OFF periods. You can chose to exchange Ra or Rb or a part of Ra or Rb with the NTC to control the off or on time by temperature changes. The reason your timer is not complete is; there is no path for charge/discharge current for the...

    Construction design!

    This is an example of construction design. What do you think, is this cool or just stupid and dangerous or is it perhaps art? Would you consider building a project along these lines? 8)

    Temperature:Speed Timer Circuit?

    Hi Twisted, Your timer is not complete as drawn here, if you take a look at this page http://www.williamson-labs.com/555-circuits.htm you may find the solution. Second picture from top shows Ra and Rb and how the decide the charge and discharge time for the capacitor.

    Hi Alun, Welcome to this forum. Nice and simple DC/DC project with good documentation, thanks! With some small changes it might be possible to run a laptop in your car with it. Most laptops run at 16
