One of the transients I need to withstand takes the shape of an ~200 us spike every 0.5 s. How should I treat this ripple equivalent in my caps ?
1. Treat it like some sort of 5 kHz ripple and somehow account for the rest of these 0.5 s being devoid of any current
2. Calculate an RMS value the...
My college professor asked us to take a real life problem/device and design and solve its circuit using transient response and Laplace transforms. It has to be a simple circuit, maybe just some capacitors, power source, switch and resistors... My biggest problem is finding a connection to a real...
The subject of surge protection in this thread caught my attention. I'm brand new here... wasn't sure about posting my question in that thread. So, here I am starting this thread.
I'm planning on making a few electrical modifications to my Iron-Age Chevy van ('92 Astro), some of them involving...
