---------------------------------------------


A lesson in Posting:


How many group posters does it take to change a light bulb?


1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been
changed


14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the
light bulb could have been changed differently


7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs


27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light
bulbs


53 to flame the spell checkers


41 to correct spelling/grammar flames


6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ...


another 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive


2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is
"lamp"


15 know-it-alls who claim *they* were in the industry, and that "light
bulb" is perfectly correct


156 to email the participant's ISPs complaining that they are in
violation of their "acceptable use policy"


109 to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please
take this discussion to a lightbulb group


203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum,
and lightbulb group about changing light bulbs be stopped


111 to defend the posting to this group saying that we all use light
bulbs and therefore the posts *are* relevant to this group


306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where
to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for
this technique and what brands are faulty


27 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs


14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the
corrected URL's


3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to
this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group


33 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including
all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"


12 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they
cannot handle the light bulb controversy


19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three"


4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ


44 to ask what is a "FAQ"


4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"


143 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions
about light bulbs"


1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and

My mate's got the TV and I don't have a schematic, so I don't know
offhand. Apparently it's got discrete vertical output transistors, one
of which is shorted E-C. He's planning to replace it this weekend.

I would like to do this test but I need to check about correct
procedure: would it be proper to solder a 3.9 zener diode with the -
end to the tuner's AGC pin and the + end to the tuner's ground.
I understand the idea is to clamp the voltage to 3.9; is this right?
I will wait for confirmation.

Hows this then:

A company I used to work for got a UL rep to come out from USA to
perform tests on a range of large motor controllers (giant smps). One
test involves packing the product with cotton wool, shorting one of the
2 series DC bus caps (actually 18 2200uF caps in parallel), and turning
it on - no flames can be emitted (hence the cotton wool).

We argued this was not a good idea at 400kW, 2m from a 2MVA supply
transformer, but the UL guy insisted. Best not to think about the
250,000A fault current

When it came time to perform the test, he found himself about 10m closer
to the drive than everyone else, and hastily backed away. Perhaps
un-surprisingly, the result was a colossal explosion, flames shooting
out several feet (caused by plasma/molten metal setting the cotton wool
on fire), and the total destruction of the drive.

He then spoke to his manager, and UL agreed it was not a particularly
meaningful test at high power.

Cheers
Terry

The AM band ends at 1700 kHz - just where the short wave band begins.

As a long time resident of Sydney I can say that it is (or was) very

whenever suitable atmospheric conditions prevailed, late at night on a

"Geoff C"

"Greg Hines"

I'm after an explanation of a circuit which in attached, or can be
found at:-

http://ghines.hopto.org/circuit.jpg


I'll have a quick go at explaining. U3B and U5A form an oscillator: note
the feedback from the output of U5A to U3B's non-inverting input ie +ve
feedback. This forms a sawtooth oscillator. U3A is simply a buffer of
half
the supply voltage to set the DC operating point. Probably a single supply
or battery supply. U5B is a comparator without hysteresis. Now, the Delta
P
signal is first amplified by U5C, a DC stage. And no, the 10k feedback
resistor does NOT add hysteresis but simply puts a single pole in the
response to roll off high frequency response, probably pulsations in the
flow or pressure sensor.

The next stage is U5D forming an integrator. Of Course this has open loop
gain at DC which means that the PWM is capable of going to 100% and 0%. I
am assuming here though that the sawtooth amplitude is less than the
supply
rails, you can verify with calcs or simulation. When the system is in
balance, the set point voltage of R28 will equal the value of Delta P
average voltage and there will be a constant duty cycle value. Q2 is
obviously an enable function.

** I think that Geoff has supplied very good explanation - especially as
the nature of the feedback sensor signal at "Delta P" is unknown. The
circuit is part of a feedback control loop so it is designed to interface
with the specific electro / mechanical items involved.

The "Delta P" signal may well be a rectangular pulse train derived from an
opto-interrupter reacting to tiny fan blades breaking a beam - or it may
be something entirely different.

The OP should have supplied that info.
