Dude, you are without a doubt the strangest person in this group of Mensa wannabe misfits. In this group, that is quite a statement! My hat is off to you.

Absurd again.

Hi,
by \"bad\" I mean the name is highly ambiguous.
Is \"design\" a noun or a verb round here ?
JL and others seem convinced it is a verb: \" to design \".
But it is every bit correct to think it\'s a noun: \" a design \" .
Lots of words can be nouns or verbs, or adjectives. English is funny
that way.
It is very hard to discuss anyone\'s design without seeing a schematic and this NG is non binary.
However it is easy to post links ( pdfs) to schematics found on the web, allowing discussion of them.
But that does not work out too well either:
1. Folk think they see flaws evident in a schem that does not exist in practice.
2. Others may consider a schem fine when a built version is in fact hopelessly flawed.
3. Folk like to make comments on a schem while barely understanding how it works or even what it does.
Too many issues are presented without much detail, or described
ambiguously. Interpreting a fuzzy word question is too much work...
there are too many possibilities.
Schematics are better.
But hard to make sense of if you don\'t know what the designer had in mind. Bitrex posted a .asc file which I eventually managed to cut and paste into LTSpice, and I got thrown by the fact that he wanted to generate two floating rails and didn\'t care where they sat vis-a-vis the driver ground.
I\'ll have to think a bit more about the circuit now I\'ve got a slightly better idea of what is it designed to do. What is was intended to do would be even better.

Make small voltage big with lower duty cycle than a boost and a
continuous input current, so you can regulate current on the input side.

Ot\'s an invitation to a sporting event, but only to people who know
how to play this game.

There is a fairly common syndrome, an electronics tech who can\'t
design and who thinks electronic design is magic, and hates the
magicians.
Your enthusiasm for finding design defects fits right in. It shows, to
you, that EEs are impractical equation-slinging airheads. When I
worked in Silicon Valley, the cultural differences were stark and
often funny. Engineers drove sports cars; techs drove pickups.
Engineers ate at restaurants, techs at strip clubs. Tribes.
I don\'t think that a good tech is dumb or anything; I respect her
skills. We can work together and create products. I want my techs to
consider that a problem could be a design defect, and come talk to us
about it. We *don\'t* want a test tech to, for example, replace an
opamp four times until the thing works. Finding bugs can be a friendly
rivalry, a sport.
We have a folder on a server, J:\\NEXT. Every product has a folder and
a file like PxxxAtoB.txt with other docs as needed. Anyone in the
company can add notes and suggestions for the next rev, and the test
people do roughly half.
The test people participate in new product design reviews too. They
always want more test points.
