With surface-mount components quickly becoming the norm, even for homebrew hardware, the resistor color-code can sometimes feel a bit old-hat. However, anybody who has ever tried to identify a ...
There is also a safety toggle switch in the middle. The ignition is cause by running 70 VDC through a 1/4 Watt 24 Ohm resistor. As you can see in the demo after the break this results in flames ...
Some resistor, capacitor networks are used to suppress transmission-line effects on high speed data lines in order to improve system performance and reduce the cost of passive components. Other RC ...
