• Use resistor instead of regulator?

    From John Doe@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jan 30 17:31:43 2021
    I can put a resistor after a voltage that's too high for the circuit?

    Of course the resistor must handle the current.

    A decoupling capacitor after the resistor.

    Any problems with that?

    Thanks.

    If the capacitor is needed there probably are problems.

    In the spirit of your question that is all I will say.

    If your load has a variable current draw, then you will also have a
    variable voltage on the load side of the resistor.

    If it's a big capacitor, the voltage variation is minimal?

    No, the size of the capacitor simply determines the rate at which the
    voltage changes. Given a current draw change of sufficient length in
    time (length determined by capicator size), the voltage across the
    capacitor will settle to that which remains after the new drop across
    the resistor.

    Wire up a test circuit on a breadboard and measure the changes
    yourself.

    No, the size of the capacitor simply determines the rate at which the

    Then your answer should be "Yes", given the same amount of time.

    Why are you fighting this?

    Do you think it makes you look smart?

    No, the correct answer is "no". The voltage variation can be
    substantial. Rate of change is a different measure than voltage
    magnitude.

    Note that I could ask you the same question. My answer is correct,
    yours is incorrect.

    Lots of reasons for non-answers, crappy answers, and venting. When a group
    is dying, for example. Non-answers are entirely understandable and no
    problem with me. Normally, people answer questions because they like the question, and because they want to see their writing on USENET. Then there
    are not-quite-grown-ups who love playing with an imaginary kill file
    friend (they are not skilled enough to control).

    This netcop wannabe troll can go fuck itself...

    Australia is a small country, but in fact, of the four groups I post to, I
    have encountered Australian trolls in three groups recently. There are
    several in the electronics design group, the most hyperactive being "Bill Sloman". The only response to one of my recent posts in the metalworking
    group is an Australian troll. And now here. Australia under pressure from communist China seems to be like Norway before World War II. Will it
    continue pleading "neutrality" if communist China invades and rapes it?

    A troll who publicly plays with its imaginary kill file friend is almost
    always technically incapable of ignoring a thread branch. So they end up stumbling over all the replies to the person that they allegedly kill
    filed.

    And they are always incapable of simply pressing the "ignore thread" key
    when they see a post by someone they cannot cope with.

    Such is the way of this silly troll and its fake kill file...

    A decoupling capacitor after the resistor.

    Any problems with that?

    If your load has a variable current draw, then you will also have a
    variable voltage on the load side of the resistor.

    If it's a big capacitor, the voltage variation is minimal?

    No, the size of the capacitor simply determines the rate at which the voltage changes.
    Then your answer should be "Yes", given the same amount of time.

    Why are you fighting this?

    Do you think it makes you look smart?

    Mr. Doe, Rich explained it correctly. You are wrong and he is right. How much Voltage are you trying to get rid of?

    Do you think it makes you look smart?

     Now you have made yourself look ignorant, which you are, otherwise you
    would not have ask the question.

     Say your device needs 9V and you have a 12V source. At some point in
    time you measure the current your device draws and it is

    20ma, so you decide you need a series 150 ohm resistor.  You have it all figured out. Then at some point it fails to work.

    At some point the motor in this device (the one you didn't explain )
    turns on and the voltage drops to 4 volts causing the circuit to fail to operate.

     Do you want to calculate the capacitance needed to keep you supply
    voltage within 5% of your required 9v?

    Or do you want to just admit it is a big ass cap and a regulator may be
    better.

    On the other hand you could give us details of the circuit, so it would
    not be a guessing game.

    That appears to be Mr Doe's signal that he has switched into troll
    mode.

    If you read through the first few posts in this thread, you'll see that
    Mr Doe is indeed quite capable of proper quoting. But once he appears
    to get ticked off, he toggles into troll mode and starts quoting
    excessive header information (and top posting as well).

    He seems to have a very Dr. Jeckyl/Mr. Hyde aspect to his postings.

    Ok, so you can do it easily, but why do you do it?

    What do you think you are doing to the person who's header you put in
    the body of the post.

    I just want to understand what advantage you get from this act.

    Is it something I should start doing when I'm disagree with a poster?

    And should I top post when I do it?

    Or, am I over thinking this and you can't write a macro to do a proper
    post with a quote?

    Ok, so you can do it easily, but why do you do it?

    What do you think you are doing to the person who's header you put in
    the body of the post.

    I just want to understand what advantage you get from this act.

    Is it something I should start doing when I'm disagree with a poster?

    And should I top post when I do it?

    Or, am I over thinking this and you can't write a macro to do a proper
    post with a quote?

    The appearance on this end of "why" looks to be: "to be irritating".

    What do you think you are doing to the person who's header you put in
    the body of the post.

    The appearance given out, when the pattern happens, is that the Mr Hyde personality half of Mr Doe does it for the purpose of irritation of the
    poster to which Mr Doe has chosen to "troll".

    I just want to understand what advantage you get from this act.

    There seems to be no advantage. Other than to overtely be irritating.

    Is it something I should start doing when I'm disagree with a poster?

    And should I top post when I do it?

    Or, am I over thinking this and you can't write a macro to do a
    proper post with a quote?

    Except that when Mr Doe is operating from his Dr Jeckyl personality
    half, he is quite capable of proper quoting, quote trimming, avoiding
    quoting headers, and bottom posting. Implying he can write a macro to
    do a proper post.

    There are at least two explanations for this:

    One - Mr Doe has a proper voice activated macro that can quote properly
    and bottom post -- which implies that the header quoting top posting Mr
    Hyde personality is a deliberate choice on his part.

    Two - Mr Doe only uses his voice activated macro when trolling. Which
    is, again, a deliberate choice on his part when the Mr Hyde personality
    is activated.

    Both boil down to deliberate choices on Mr Doe's part.

    So I submit that he deliberatly chooses the top posting, header
    quoting, Mr Hyde version to be irritating to the person to which he is responding.

    Nobody forces anybody to read anybody else's posts on USENET. The idea
    USENET posts must conform to some standard is nothing but a ridiculous
    troll. You can cope with it or you can ignore it.

    A netcop wannabe troll starved for attention...

    Generally your mangled posts consist entirely of untruths.
    (with the exception of the quoted part), this one seems to have some
    truth however.
