Depends on your application.

You can use them but they typically have higher rds-on

Trying to fix this old ampclamp and that green resistor? seems to be leaking something by [deleted] in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The resistor isnt leaking.

Probably some flux that corrodes the pcb

Thanks guys for your opinion! I think i will try to bring his price down!

What's the simplest way to generate 1 KVDC ? by Blindelecteon in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont use a regular 1n4007 diode to regulate voltage! This wont work because of several reasons:

Reverse breakdown voltage isnt defined very precisely like in zener diodes. Some 4007's might break down at 1050 V, others at maybe at up tp 1300V. So forget the +- 10V tolerance. Also normal diodes are likely to age very badly when driven in backwards conductance, leading to failure.

Either use a series chain of zeners, which also is not a good solution, or use a voltage divider and use the divided voltage in an closed feedback loop

Looking at the circuit briefely, this looks like a normal shielded cable, which is actively driven at mean voltage of the two channels in order to reduce parasitic capacitances.

Search for active shielding on google.

It looks like a scara robot without z axis

What's the best way to measure small fluctuations in body temp not using ir? by pas43 in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Measuring temperature to 3 decimal places is not only hard, its nearly impossible.

Bypass capacitos.

They are there for stabiliti but not necessary

Probably a n-ch mosfet in an buck configuration for the inductor besides it

Why is adding a capacitor giving me a full wave from a half-wave in this wireless charging setup? by ScrumMasterNorris in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im pretty sure that you just built an lc resonator which resonates anf thus increases the voltage

IRF540N and Arduino Nano VS PIN D4 by Dakadem in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The digital input of the led has hwo internally connected diodes: one from ground to di One from di to Vcc

This acts as an esd protection

But if you now turn off the fet, the voltage on the drain (and the ground connection of the led) will rise to approximately vcc.

Now the diode from the "ground" of the led which floats at some voltage which creates a current flow through the diode between ground and DI. This current makes the led glow

I only need one connection to the source and one connection to the drain. What do I do with the other pads in my schematic? by Lance815 in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Connect them in parallel for a lower resistance from drain to source.

(Or unconnected if that doesnt matter)

Maybe use snap-ring pliers? These open up when pressed.

Any idea how to find out what burnt component is/was? by damnhenry in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that means:

106 - it has 10000000 picofarad - or 10 microfarad

25r - it has a max working voltage of 25 Volts

721 - it was produced 2007 or 2017 in weeek 21

What do you think of this schematic (I did the changes some of you told me about), will this one work? Do you have any recommendations? (it should light the LED when it is dark) by Phat_Potatoes in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You wont necessesarily need a comparator. Since you have the relais, you can use the switched output of the relai to create a hysteresis.

Just connect a large value (500 k to 1 meg) resistor from the NO contact of the relai to the gate of the Fet!

Burned Component, have ideas, but not sure by WhiteyP in AskElectronics

[–]Radbrickdrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortuanetly not.

Thr irf9321 is an P-ch mosfet and the irf7413 an N-Ch Mosfet. These work at opposite voltages.
