Hello,
I am wanting to build an uninterrupted power supply for a certain device that has multiple electronic devices working together.
It will need to run about 1.5k Watts for about 15-30 minutes without an external power source.
There will be a few moving parts such as wheels to move...
Last month I bought a computer online that's delivered already built, and just recently the power supply has begun making a quick ticking sound. I'm unsure if it's the fan or something else, but the ticking sound doesn't start until I'm at my desktop. During boot it's quiet.
Anyway, it's just...
As stated:
every now and then you see maximum power output to a motor, a turbine, but why is there a limit to the power output to these electrical/mechanical devices?
isn't Power just equals to F*v for mechanical devices and VI for electrical devices? what are these "ratings" and...
Hello,
Is it possible to run heating and elements and other devices with DC supply?
I have turned on Nickel-Chromium Heating wires with AC but is it okay to use it with DC supply?
What's the main practical difference between AC & DC, as long as the voltage and current of supply is...
Hey guys,
Are you guys aware of any designs (other than buckboost or charge pump) for negative power supplies using just a positive voltage (and ground of course) as inputs? Creative designs are totally welcome.
Thanks in advance!
Hi all,
I need to create an adjustable power supply (AC) that ranges from 0-6 volts with roughly 1 ampere at 1 volt. I have a variac transformer (0-130 volts), an isolation transformer and a stepdown transformer. My question is, does it matter what order I step the voltage down? In other words...
Hello all! If you're reading this thread then thank you for taking the time to read and/or reply! I appreciate it!:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:
Onto the guts of the thread. Here I will list what I am trying to do, the associated questions that I have found reasonable to ask, and then any...
It says DC in 12volts but I'm not sure how many amps this thing can handle... I don't want to plasma myself so I was looking for helpful answers, thanks guys pic of globe (paid $8 not bad) http://postimg.org/image/462gwlj5v/
If a 60 Hz equipment needs to be run off a 50 Hz power supply (3 phase, AC) what are typical options?
One brute force approach is to simply change motors. But I was wondering if a VFD / thyristor or some such might work?
This is medium sized equipment with rating of ~5 kW.
As an...
Hi all, I hope you're all well :)
I am shortly going to be fitting a battery operated device outdoors. Due to the power consumption, I will get 2.5 days out of each battery (max - if I'm lucky).
What I would like to do is be able to connect another battery to it before disconnecting the...
I built an inverting op amp circuit on a circuit simulator and did a transient analysis on it. I set the gain such that I expected a clipped output, but to my surprise it got clipped at +9V and -9V instead of +10V and -10V, which were the voltages supplied to the op amp. So why would this be the...
How to power an OpAmp using two batteries, so there's no connection to mains ground or neutral? This circuit requires ground to force the node connecting the batteries to be at zero potential. How can I achieve the same result without grounding?
thanks.
Please recommend a high quality power supply (at least 1KW) for this new gaming build. I haven't finished it yet, but it should be complete within the next few months..

In the Fabric of the cosmos, B Greene indicates that 'as the universe expands, matter and radiation lose energy to gravity while inflaton field gains energy from gravity' (page 312). I can accept that statement, but in his note no. 2 (page 524), he indicates that 'the special feature about...
Normally the connection of supply voltage is +-V but now is +V and ground.
What happen if Op-amp (ua741) with only positive supply voltage? The op-amp still function?
I have a problem
how can i obtain a constant value of dc voltage from a capacitor(dynamo) to supply a device..
As we know if the capacitor is directly connected to the device, the voltage will drop and the device will not have enough voltage to function.
what is a better way?
What things do I need to consider when selecting a proper sized power supply? Basically this is control power, ouputs are pushbutton lights, alarm horn, and solenoid valves. Do I look at the peak inrush current? Average holding current?

I did a bit of searching and I don't get it. What is really the difference between single supply and dual supply op amps?
Voltages are just a potential difference. Op amps usually do not have a ground pin so they should have no idea if I am connecting +-15 V or +30V,0V it should still drive...
Hello,
So I'm facing some difficulties. I'm using a DC voltage supply and connecting it to a PIC Board. The AC adapter that comes with the board outputs 9V DC. To be safe I'm just using 5V from the DC voltage supply. When I connect it to the board the reading from the voltage supply drops to...
