Hi,
My electronic knowledge is limited so please bear with me. I have recently put headrest screens in my vehicle. I have powered the screen from ACC source. The screens don't have battery backup. The problem is if I stop at a gas station and turn off the engine, when I restart the engine, the ACC power cuts out for few seconds and that resets the screen and whatever was playing on it, which is very frustrating for kids. Some research have indicated that an RC circuit would be a good solution for temporary loss of power (1-2 seconds). I was thinking if good folks here can suggest the values for resistor and capacitor that I need to put in. I believe it takes 9~12v and 1A. Also I was wondering how the circuit would be laid out. option A or option B
thanks,
