  Ferrite transformers with N2/N1 of around 40?         


Author: Joerg
Date: Sep 3, 2008 17:31

Hello Folks,

Got to make roughly 220VDC on a new board where I'll have a 12VDC rail.
Not a big deal, or so I thought until I looked at the smorgasboard of
ferrite transformers. All the (available) CCFL transformers with the
lowest turns ratio are 50 or higher, like this series:

http://www.bourns.com/pdfs/pm61300_series.pdf

Of course I'd need a little less than 40. Are there any in that range?

If not I'd have to regulate the thing. Again. Dang. I don't want to but
man's got to do what man's got to do.

Zero seems to make less of this stuff than they used to...

Anybody else know of vendors for rugged field-portable test set
packaging, the pseudo-suitcase stuff?

  Tip: Let battery go empty before reloading. Q: Why ?         


Author: Skybuck Flying
Date: Sep 3, 2008 12:18

Hello,

The lady at the barber shop said the following:

She let the battery of the shaving device go completely empty before
reloading it with power. (she had a spare already loaded).

She said otherwise it doesn't load properly.

I think I am noticing the same effect on my own shaving device.

Right now I am completely letting it go empty, it's taking forever, this is
the second time in years that I am doing this.

It's like the battery never loaded properly because of all the quick loading
in between while it still had some power.

It's like the shaving device never had enough power to do a good shave after
only one maybe two times of usage.

Has anybody else noticed this effect ?

I believe the barbershop lady, she has many years of experience shaving lots
and lots of people.

Now comes the real question:

What's going on inside the battery during these quick loads ?

Why doesn't it load fully for good shaves many times ?

Why must it be drained completely first for good/full loading ?

Try the CE testing companies. Most of them do FCC approval testing and
should be able to do UL certification as well.

  Radio-module OM5604

I know, old topic but I just got 2 of these modules (who can resist at
$7 each!) and am having no joy finding the I2C protocol to talk to
them.

I have the data sheet for the module and the chip and can not figure
out the exact commands/bit streams to send via the serial interface.

Someone must have figured this out after all these years:-D

TIA Mike...
