Phase shift in cabling?
I'm working with linear hydraulic actuators which have multiple LVDTs (for the ram and main control valve) and I have a spec for allowed phase shift from primary to secondary for the transformers. I'm trying to make sense of the Labview code I've been given for measuring this parameter and have found an unexplain... 11 Jun 2010 23:38

How to stabalise this discrete LDO cct.
Hi to all. I've put together( well simulated :0) ) a discrete LDO cct using an opamp(lm358) and a p-channel mosfet. Under certain conditions it oscillates. How do I go about compensating this circuit so that it does not oscillate. I must stress I'm not going to actually build this circuit , I'm just playing arou... 4 Jun 2010 03:46

When and Why use resistors between base and emitter
Hi, I would like to know in your opinion when and why use resistors between the base an the emitter in a transistor. I'm making a bridge h but not to control a motor, it is for having a +/- signal at a frequency>100Hz, I just have a resistor as a charge, my signal is 200Vpp Iam considering to use MOSFETs. m... 3 Jun 2010 19:02

doing our part for Art
Shot from our conference room: ftp://jjlarkin.lmi.net/Sun_1.jpg Somebody covered the billboard across the street with plywood, and now two guys are working with chisels and mallets to strip away the darker surface layer and make an image. We rented out one window to a time-lapse photographer, who will even... 11 Jun 2010 11:27

ADUC7020
Is there anyone here who knows all about the ADUC7020? I'm about to give up on getting an answer from Analog. There is one line in the whole data sheet that makes me believe that you can make the DACs update on a reload of Timer1 but nothing about the specific timing or any details. Does anyone know? ... 4 Jun 2010 23:33
