ORCAD background color change
OK, dammit, I'm stuck... I'm using, and dearly love, old ORCAD SDT in an XP DOS window, and it works great. But...

White LED appropriate for illumination?
So, I'm going on a camping trip, and I plan to bring along some reading material for the time between sundown and the time when I get bored watching the stars and listening to the wildlife until I'm tired enough to sleep.

A Jfet to use for switching?
Can anyone recommend an N channel TO-92 JFET that would be good for signal switching in a battery powered application? The on resistance isn't really critical, but the supply voltage and the signal amplitude require that the pinchoff voltage always be less than -2 volts or so. ... 15 Feb 2010 13:13
