Today, 05:12BradtheRad replied to a thread li-ion voltage reducer to 3volt - help needed in Hobby Circuits and Small Projects ProblemsMy wireless mouse takes 3V @ 10mA. I made a battery pack from 2 half-used D cells. 2.5V is sufficient to operate the mouse. If your setup is...5 replies | 156 view(s) -
Yesterday, 20:03BradtheRad replied to a thread PS with LM76003 for variable volatage and variable current design? in Analog Circuit DesignWhen you draw high power your output capacitors have to carry 1 or 2 Amperes per cycle. That's thousands of times per second. It may be all right to...1 replies | 129 view(s)
