Dear All,
Why not burn burn device driver into device directly, when
device install to Windows/Linux/OS2..., system could get driver from
device directly?
( I mean USB devices)

Well I'm not expert, but I can think of some problems with this. First,
it's cost more. You'd need a big chunk fo flash ROM to store the
drivers. This reason alone probably makes it unfeasible. Also what
happens when the company wants to update the drivers? Most devices are
shipped with old version. You'd probably want to download the latest
ones from the web anyway.

I don't think the extra cost/complexity outweighs just shipping the
customer a CD with the product.

cheers,

Al

Best regards,

1) simply connecting to the printer port and kludging a way to read the
port
under windows (not always reliable).

Should be perfectly Ok, provided your custom driver is!

Any suggestions?

Soundcard - available on any PC and has drivers already - and an encoder to
map 4 bits into distinct voltage levels; i.e. a DAC (or 5 resistors....).
Then decode on the application side. Charge a bundle for the converter box
;-)

Here is one

go to the bottom of the page.

That one is overly complex with poor performance, and has a
fatal flaw to boot. Not recommended.

what's the darling pair today? is the 2n3904 the current npn utility?
what's
the one for pnp?

Ohhh -

I cannot tell since I have not yet used the two 500 pcs bags of BC547/BC557
I bought for total amont of about USD 7. some time ago. I only *needed* 10
of each flavour - but - the hobbyist bags of 25's were priced at USD 3.
Each!!!

On Thursday 23 September 2004 12:25 pm, Mark W. Lund, PhD did deign to

us with the following:

This illustrates the problem. Customer went down to Pep Boys and
picked out a connector for his product. Unfortunately I can't
put "pep boys" on the bill of material as a supplier.

Then go buy a handful out of petty cash, and put yourself as supplier.

Good Luck!

Regarding the topic here I wonder what would be the most popular cheap
npn power work horse. When I was a kid the 2N3055 was used for almost
everything.

And did that suck too ;-)

Something in TIP and TO220/TO247 would be my favourite today - or maybe
"Deflection", the BU25xx since the 2N3055 usually appears to be driving
ingnition coils, judging from the posts.

 

What would you recommend?

I'd build one around the HIP4081A. Look at the data sheets and app notes

not sure how inductive thermistors are

They are normally bulk material, not spiralled film or anything that has
more inductance than a straight wire.

Yes of course I took Burridge's post as the literal truth... I do know
that a recent poll of the UK showed 70% of the population favoring
withdrawal from Iraq.

A 1kW H-bridge is not a good choice for a high-power-novice
copy-the-schematic project (making no assumptions about you).

I'd begin with my favorite HIP4081A H-bridge driver IC, add
some large MOSFETs, evaluate snubbers and filters, and move
on to considering protection and controller schemes. Hmm,
perhaps that's backward, and one should start by evaluating
recent motor-controller ICs first, and move on FETs, etc.

Quite understandably.
The entire pretext for the war was a lie.

Which MOSFETs you would recommend to be connected to to the HIP4081A to
drive 24v 40Amp DC motor ?

I'd build one around the HIP4081A. Look at the data sheets and app notes
on the Intersil website.

I regret that's beyond my powers! There's an election due next spring,
