Any improvements possible? Win is of course not allowed to
participate, because he is much too clever.



Depends how that 9V is applied- you say just one pulse- so the power
switch must be debounced- and if that is the case none of the circuits
so far work- you need to qualify the output pulse by not initiating it
until power is up and stays up. A CMOS 555 would be best because the
ultra-high input impedance allows you to use smallest possible filter
capacitor.
Good point, about the bouncing. This question was also posted on a
Dutch newsgroup, by someone else, and another poster suggested to use
a sot-23 pic, like the PIC10F200 (+ regulator). Since I had little else
to do, I posted my sketch here. But it sucks ;) Fred Bartoli's suggestion
would still work, perhaps adding a nice power decoupling cap to filter
the debounce effect. Or the damn 555 ;)

Hello;
I want to design a switching power supply with:

Notice the important part:
controller and power Mosfet just in a package.

I still recommend separate mosfets! But of course Hassan /might/ actually
mean what he wrote. He might look at Sipex's offerings... (ie. SP7655 8A
buck to 28V). That is if he's actually following the discussion ;-)
I'm surprised that one exists. Small package too, 7mm x 4mm. It
looks challenging to get rid of the heat, even at 95% efficiency.

I am thinking that the negative wire (black) should go to COMMON port

the switch is closed then the buzzer would be activated?
The relay contacts are like a switch

Hi Rene, Hi Harry,

... Note that opamps do not like capacitive loads. So when you drive
the input with an opamp, make sure to have a series resistor.


Or better yet, follow it with a sturdy buffer. Most ADCs need a nice low
drive impedance. Else digital noise might make it back into their
inputs. Sometimes that can even happen via paths on the chip that are
beyond a design engineer's control.
I once failed with that, when an ADC had a huge internal capacitance.
The Opamp thought to drive this input was oscillating.
It was solved with 1uF on the input and an 1k in series.
Luckily the bandwidth of the measurement was very low.
Imagine 5mV self generated spikes on the input of a 20 bit ADC.
All the newer ADCs are having capacitive inputs, as far as I could see.

It seems that Bush is going to declare Martial law and blame it on

I received a phone call from a client tonight from New Zealand

Known as a "latching relay": bistable. You can get 2 toggle-action latching

I have [somewhere....] some Korean Wall era magnetic latching relays.
You hit them with + - voltage and it would toggle one way...and

Hello
I want some help to select a pulse transformer that is good for my
design.
I want to design and simulate it for my university project

The Pulse Transformer should rise up pulses with voltage of 20kv to
100kv with a rise time of 0.3-0.4 micro seconds and pulse width of 3-4
micro seconds

which kind of insulator should I use for high voltage side? I saw that
most of insulators have a voltage standing of 30v/mil, but that needs
an insulator with a thickness of 3.3 inch in hich voltage side!
is that reasonable or I should select another insulator? which
insulator do you suggest for it? where on internet can I find
datasheets?

my second question is about leakage inductance(Ll) and distributed
capacitance(Cd),

I use these formules for Ll and Cd:

Ll=(0.032 Ns^2 Lc/t)*(s1 + d/3)
Cd=(0.225 k Lc t/s1)*(1/3 + 2/3n + 1/3n^2)

when I calculate these,where should I place tham in simulation
circuit?primary or secondary?

please help me on this problem

thanks
Sinatra Benigni
We ain't gonna due yer homewoik!
House-some-ever, look at Teflon and (nitrogen) foamed plastics for
insulators.
Try coax cable for the HV insulation as well as for "bifilar" winding
(gives extremely low leakage inductance for fast risetime).
And turn ratios do not have to be 1:1 using coax cable (how it is done
is left as an exercize to the student).

Now, some simple questions:

Do you believe Iraq is a better place now, compared to the situation
before the invasion?


No. But it might be, some years from now.
I understand that doctors sometimes or even often need to hurt a
patient for their own good. But that really doesn't apply here.
This is all guess work. Iraq was already on it's way to a better
place, Saddam getting older, UN having a foot between the
door, etcetara.

Do you believe the US is a better place now, compared to the situation
before the invasion?

Somewhat, but that's not a causality.
I'm surprised you say that.

Do you believe that US families who lost their son(s) in this event are
proud
that they contributed to this new situation?

Some, probably the majority, are. Their sons were, by choice,
warriors.
I hope they can stay proud, for their own personnal happiness. But
I doubt it. As it looks now, consencus that this war was a foolish
decision only grows. Worldwide it already has been condemned, even
before it started. In time, the US will also, I have no doubt about
that. Common sense always wins.

Are you happy to see how your tax dollar is spent on this event, or had
you preferred to spend them on bonusses for your workers?

I'd prefer that the UN had done its job, that the 911 attacks had
never happened, and that the world was peaceful. On the other hand,
we're getting a *lot* of defense-related business, so as a purely
pragmatic matter, my employees are better off. But that's just us.
I should have asked another question then. But I won't turn this
into a quiz.

Are you having fun yet?

I always try to do good work and have fun. Being a basicly serious
geek and a borderline-clinical bipolar person, it has taken, continues
to take, some conscious effort. Being angry or bummed out doesn't do
anybody any good, and can mess up one's judgement.
Well, Mr. Bush got pretty angry, and even agressive, yet you don't
seem to have any problems with that.

Are you having fun?
Not in this thread, but I make sure I get my daily portion of fun,
no need to worry.

How are you testing the radar?



BAE is building the ground-support test set. They have cool little
suction-cup or something near-field couplers they stick over the
plane's antennas and simulate targets and stuff. I'm just doing a VME
module for them that generates the simulated target waveforms and a
bunch of digital pulses that time things somehow. I don't know (aren't
allowed to know!) the gory details; I just make the waveforms.

Still, those old droopy-wing 8-engine B-52s are classy birds.

Hehe- I *knew* your end would be VME. I am familiar with this type of
simulation- it is called convolving the environment- the ultimate
simulation.

No, the relay contacts are N/O, i.e, 'Normally Open'. When activated
by current through the relay coil, they *close*. So you need to wire
the negative wire to the COMMON connection and the other wire to the
NO connection. Then place the load in series with that. I've
illustrated it here:

You need to answer his questions, one at a time.

You do still have the capacity to answer questions, haven't you?

For one, not that it makes any difference, other than I'm watching the
bloogstime dance with some interest, but what _were_ you doing during
those years phred asked about?

You _do_ have it in you to answer one simple question, haven't you?

Like, for example, in 1965, I was in jumior high or high school - I'm
horseshit at keeping track of dates. But I graduated HS in '67, went
to Minnesota Institutite of Technology in '67-'68, joined the US Air
Force in '68, and did drugs until they threw me out of the Air Force
in 1976.

Where were you?

Thanks,
Rich


Since you asked me in such a polite way, I'll tell you. While you were
doing drugs I was involved in top secret national defense projects at
the Hanford Nuclear Reservation after graduating from Oregon State U.
in 1969. I am not a vet and never pretended to be one.

A common characterization of one of the effects of things like LSD and

common experience.

All of our senses come together in a very primative part of the brain.
Any sensory input causes the same "excited" responce. In primative
animals, the same reaction (running away) worked as a good tactic for
dealling with any unexpected change in sight, sound or smell. In higher
