30th March 2020, 20:55barry replied to a thread computer parallel port external relay control in Hobby Circuits and Small Projects ProblemsYou're close enough, Frank. Fire away. What's your question? I'm not really sure what you mean about Microsoft "restrictions". You're free to...9 replies | 472 view(s)

30th March 2020, 16:48barry replied to a thread Circuit with an integrated FLIP FLOP in Hobby Circuits and Small Projects ProblemsThis is a mess. In "1." you say C goes to 1 when A and B are 1. Then in "3." you say "pin C returns to 1 ONLY when pin A goes from 1 to 0 and then...12 replies | 552 view(s)

30th March 2020, 16:43barry replied to a thread Is a snubber circuit required with zero-cross optocoupler in Power ElectronicsI think it depends on the application. If you've got an inductive load, where current and voltage are 90 degrees out of phase, you might still need a...4 replies | 293 view(s)

26th March 2020, 07:01barry replied to a thread Force sensitive resistor controlling output voltage in Analog Circuit DesignYour second circuit doesn't make a lot of sense to me. First of all, I think you may damage the FSR with such a high voltage. Secondly, what's the...5 replies | 330 view(s)

24th March 2020, 22:10You need to know your sensor's voltage(resistance)/temperature relationship. You don't tell us if it's a thermistor, RTD, thermocouple, diode or...9 replies | 551 view(s)

15th March 2020, 15:39barry replied to a thread Failure mode of aluminium electrolytic capacitor....open cct..not short cct? in Elementary Electronic QuestionsNo, i dont agree.

14th March 2020, 21:42barry replied to a thread Dimmer Circuit with Switch Wiring Question in Hobby Circuits and Small Projects ProblemsYou actually bought this? It looks like it was assembled by a pre-schooler. I'd be very suspicious of this entire endeavor.9 replies | 654 view(s)

At 48MHz you've got A=1, and that's where it starts to rolloff. (Well, not exactly, since you've got some peaking). GBW...17 replies | 1069 view(s)
