  Re: Help with converting voltage on circuit board
 
(...) The BDX34 transistor + toroidal inductor above + LM339 comparator probably compose a switching regulator efficiently converting 13V input power to 4.5V for the outputs. Philo (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: The Polar Express
 
(...) Well I certainly hope I haven't stopped you from going forward with your MOC. It was an exceptionally fun build, and a great learning experience. I plan on including many of the characters in the movie, including the hobo. However, I think for (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
 
  Re: The Polar Express
 
(...) Thanks much! Coming from you, I consider this high praise. In fact, it was your instructions on the mod to the Santa Fe Observation Car that gave me the means to attach via SNOT the red light atop my own observation car. So... thanks for the (...)

  Re: lowering noise
 
(...) No, I agree with you that he should not have said "Baghdad Bob" and that it serves no good purpose to call someone a lackey. But of *all* the instances of provocation that have occurred over the years on Lugnet I would say this is very minor, (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.people, FTX)
 
  Re: lowering noise
 
(...) I won't speak for Mark, as I know he's perfectly capable of speaking clearly for himself. The question originally posed by Frank was echoed by Mark, and I find myself wondering the same thing. I think you and I are having two separate (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.people, FTX)
 
  Re: Rusty Bucket Transportation Services
 
(...) Dude, I screwed up. I was thinking 'no mounted weapons', i.e. non-military. I wasn't thinking about the rifle. D'oh! sigh Oh well. It's my first contest. Michael Peek P.S. I really should learn to spelchek too. (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Help with converting voltage on circuit board
 
I've taken some more detailed pictures of the circuit and the reverse side. (URL) through the manual, connections 6 and 7 are for sensors and connections 0-5 are for output (4V as labled on the cover), but you only can turn the circuit on or off. (...)

  Re: Help with converting voltage on circuit board
 
(...) Hi Dustin, I am an EE. Before I give you some advice, I need a bit more information about 9750 (I have never seen one in person): - I see a power jack: I assume this powers the electronic circuit, not the loads, right? What voltage is applied (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: lowering noise
 
(...) I find this interesting. I obviously have a different opinion of what constitutes flaming. Calling people "lackeys" seems like flaming to me. As does comparing them to "Baghdad Bob". Could you explain to me why this is not flaming? On a (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.people, FTX)
 
  Re: Will NXT will work on Intel Macs ???
 
(...) The system requirements at lego.com say it requires MacOS X v. 10.3.9 or 10.4 and I'm pretty sure that runs on Intel Macs? So I'm guessing yes. But you could always contact LEGO customer support and ask. They might be able to help. ROSCO (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Help with converting voltage on circuit board
 
(...) Wow - I remember those, we used them at school. Now why is it that Peeron do not have an entry for it under 9750? Those are also some big old capacitors, I would be inclined to check out their ESR (a rating of their health if you like) before (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

  Re: lowering noise
 
(...) I hadn't seen that thread, but having just looked at it I have to agree with Kelly-- Mark was not flaming at all. In the post you cite above I sense Mark's frustration at the reaction he got from his question, which, while perhaps indelicate, (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.people, FTX)
 
  Re: Help with converting voltage on circuit board
 
(...) I am not an EE either but I can see at least 2 things that look like voltage regulators. (20 years ago, 7-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: lowering noise
 
(...) I don't consider it respectful and nor did Todd or Lenny from what I could see. I find the whole thread very distasteful and would be very unhappy to see more like it.

  Help with converting voltage on circuit board
 
I'd like to try to convert the output of the voltage on a 9750 from 4V to 12V (to control 12V trains :). I've taken a photo of the internal circuit board - my rudimentary EE knowledge leads me to be believe I need to swap out the transistors that (...)
