    device for showing vibration

    This is a tough problem! How thick is the wire? How about using the wire to interupt ( even partial blocking would be ok) a laser beam. This will enable you to detect high frequncy modulation using a CRO and photo diode/transistor. Set the whole thing up with x-y vernier adjustment so you can...

    dB and Differential Pairs??????

    Comment on IRstuff respones. Given that Jobeth is working on connectors I would think that the reference to differential pairs would relate to wiring topology for a balanced transmission (signal) line. My guess is that Jobeth has been given performance criteria of a connector wich will be...

    Output hum humdrum

    Sounds like you neeed to decouple the preamp power supply from the poweramp supply. The ripple you see on the preamp regulator is probably due to its supply dropping below its rated output voltage (or just too close to it). This drop will be due the internal resistance of the battery, when the...

    Simple RC filter in the Z domain

    Whilst I am quite experienced in designing active analog filters I haven't done much with DSP designs. Whilst I have done some reading on digital filter theory I am interested in emulating a basic first order RC filter using multiple delay sections. So my question is how many delay sections and...

    Slip Ring Technology

    What sort of application is it. ie how much power do you need to transfer, is it AC or DC, what voltage & bandwidth isrequired and at what sort of RPM. Is it a one off application or are significant quantities involved. There are alternatives to conventional slip ring solutions but they are...

    Very low friction rotary shaft seals or systems

    Dear Bobp Here are some quick sugestions, which may be useful if your designing from scratch, less so if your retro fitting. 1) Use a stainless steel deep groove ball bearings with 2Z bearing shields. These are noncontact sheilds wich keep the lubricating grease captured and dirt out. The very...
