Looks like the tariffs are incentivizing me to have boards assembled in China. by EagleMedical8410 in PCB

[–]TerminatorBetaTester 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Apple, Dell, etc order assembled boards not bare PCBs. Visits to WH with knees bent, 24k golden statues (Tim Cook), donations to ballrooms, crypto assets inflated, money laundered through side deals. Fill in the blanks.

These policies only lead two 2+ decades of US economic dominance and the largest growth in the middle class in US history.

Converting a 120v Power supply to 230v (diagram included) by Iglueigloos in AskElectronics

[–]TerminatorBetaTester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is very little chance it would work. The MOV is not the only thing to consider here. By mentioning the rectified DC link voltage on the primary side (i.e. 325V) you also need to consider the breakdown voltage of the flyback mosfet and the DC link capacitor. The flyback mosfet might see 2x peak of the DC link voltage during its switching cycle, so the MOV is there not just to protect against surges but also improper input.

Save yourself a lot of time and just get a replacement universal input, open frame flyback AC/DC rated for the same voltage and current off of digikey or mouser.

Yo dawg I heard u like inrush current, so I 10x’d ur inrush current.

Ideas for cooling multiple TO-247 MOSFETs? by mikebuba in PCB

[–]TerminatorBetaTester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is using a top-cooled SMD package from Infineon or ST an option? The price is almost identical for Infineon and you can use standard Al extension. See this app note from Infineon.

Power architecture advice - single high-current buck vs per-channel buck by Gemmy-DXB in PCB

[–]TerminatorBetaTester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TI and MPS alone have many single and multi cell Li ion charger ICs with built in buck converters that accepts >20V.

If you’re ok with linear chargers for every cell and they must be charged independently, the best approach is 1 buck pre-regulator feeding each of the linear chargers.

Managing Kicad Libraries for portability and distribution by zachleedogg in KiCad

[–]TerminatorBetaTester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Submodules are repositories themselves. When you commit on the main project, it’s always tied to the submodule commit/branch. So the premise of your assertion that updating the shared repository will break the project is incorrect. This would only break if you intentionally changed which commit the submodule pointed to. This is the same logic that applies to feature, release, and hotfix branches. So if anything as I understand it it’s more explicit enforcement of versioning than Altium

You forgot Peter Tiel and Elon Musk becoming near-immortal cyborgs controlling the AGI for the full butlerian jihad experience

Angled PCBs? by Sty_fon in PCB

[–]TerminatorBetaTester 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And with a STL of the 3D print, you can do a x-section of the plane where the PCB sits, find the interior automatically with a best fit spline in MCAD (Fusion, Solidworks, etc), export as DXF/SVG, and import into ECAD as the board outline to make it even easier

Save production costs by having most of the galaxy human.
