    EMI radiation from cables

    Hi Guys, I have am trying to minimise the EMI radiation from cables carrying power to magnetic coils. I have read that shielded twisted pair cables with a drain wire where both the drain and the shield are connected to ground is the best approach - is this the case? What types of connectors...

    Slowing down MOSFET turn ON/OFF

    Hi, I have a problem whereby I have a set of circuits for use with Helmholtz Coils that were initially designed to allow for rapid switching ON and OFF of the coils. The circuits are a High Side Power MOSFET and a H-Bridge configuration using Power MOSFETs. All the power MOSFETs are currently...

    Printer Port Opto Isolation

    Hi, I'm trying to use my printer port as a Digital Output Interface to a motor control IC. I want to use an opto-isolator circuit to protect my PC. However, the printer port outputs a 3.39 Volt High signal and a 0.1 Volt Low Signal - this is not enough to switch the opto-isolater by itself and...

    Electronics for Magnetic Field Generation

    Hi, I've been asked to develop the electronics for the following problem, -Provide a constant current to a coil that will generate a magnetic field. -Provide the ability to either stop or reverse the current in the coil - using a TTL or CMOS logic. I been looking around and I'm considering...

    Medical Phantom Project. 2D Grey Levels --> 3D Model

    Hi all, I'll quickly explain the project I'm working on and apologise for my lack of expierence in this area! I'm hoping to design a mammographic phantom for QA in a hospital. I've done some work already and I know what matieral I'm going to use and what depth of matieral I need to mimic a...

    Supression the initial current drawn by a motor

    Hello, The situation I'm in is that I am using a Motor I/O Card to control two different motors. The card has two outputs to control the motors. The card is being used in conjunction with a PC104 card, which will control the motion of the motors through the Motor I/O Card. The problem I have...

    DC Motor Modeling

    Hi, I'm trying to model a DC Motor in simulink and I've got the expression I can't get certain values for this expression from the motor's datasheet. Haas anyone else modeled a DC Motor in simulink and if so how did they do it or has anyone any good info. or links on this kind of stuff. Thanks...

    Re: Can I place a axes on top of a frame in guide

    Hey, I'm new to the forum and I'm having a small problem with guide. I'm trying to design a fairly complex GUI with it and everything is okay but for some reason I cannot get any axes components to not be hidden behind frame components. I'm using frames just to group components and for...
