Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a power supply higher than 9 volts with the tube-amp-inspired distortions?

runoffgroove.com FAQ
Yes. Make sure that all your components are appropriately rated for the voltage you're using and bias the FET drain pins to half of that.

What is a Higher Power... ?

FAQs - Adult Children of Alcoholics - World Service Organiza...
ACA is a spiritual program, based on no particular religion or set of beliefs but rather an understanding of a power greater than ourselves that can aid us on our path to recovery. This Higher Power is as diverse as the individuals of the group.

How do I create my own tube-amp-inspired distortion circuit using FETs?

runoffgroove.com FAQ
Read the description of the process on the Professor Tweed page. Also, refer to the below diagram to translate tubes into FETs. No, they're regular stompbox circuits and cannot directly drive a speaker. Use them in the same manner as any effect pedal.

I thought phantom power was 48 volts. Why does the power stand only supply 24 volts?

L1? Model I / FAQ - Bose L1 Encyclopedia FAQ & Wiki
Phantom power is a DC voltage that powers the preamplifier of a condenser microphone. It can be in a range of 11 ? 48 volts.

Is it safe to use a DC power supply voltage higher than the voltage rating specified for the motor?

Electromate Industrial Sales
a. Normally this not a problem as long as the motor operates within the speed and current limits set by the manufacturer. Since motor speed is proportional to the voltage across the motor leads, select a power supply voltage that could not cause a mechanical over-speed in the event of an amplifier malfunction or a runaway condition.

Can I use one of your FET-based distortions to drive my Ruby or Little Gem amp?

runoffgroove.com FAQ
When placing any distortion circuit before a 386-based amp, you need to keep the output volume at the same level as the dry guitar signal. Otherwise, you'll overdrive the 386 and lose the character of the distortion.

What is the difference between AT & ATX power supply?

FSP (GB) Ltd. of FSP GROUP
The differences between AT & ATX power supply are the connector and output voltage. ATX is has a 20-pin connector for mainboard power while AT has two six-pin connectors. ATX has a 3.3V output and +5Vsb, but AT doesn??t. power supplies come with an on/off switch. ATX power supplies is not necessary. The on/off switch of ATX units is controlled through the motherboard. However, some models of ATX power supply do come with it.

Can I use an external battery or power supply with your systems?

NextComputing - Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, NextComputing recommends APC brand UPS/DC power pack bricks. These units usually provide 15–30 minutes of power, depending on your system's configuration.

What Power Supply Should I use with a GL4000?

ALLEN & HEATH :: WORLD CLASS MIXERS
The correct PSU is the RPS11. This can be used with an RPSD2 for connection of a backup RPS11 with autoswitching.

What power supply should I use in a car?

MP3 Jukebox Player Frequency Asked Questions
The player module itself will operate on a regulated 5VDC @ 75 mA. So its actually the hard drive that is the significant power-hungry device. I would recommend using a 2.5" notebook/laptop hard drive for cars, as they tend to be more mechanically sturdy and also run off a 5VDC regulated supply @ ~1000mA. A single 12V-5V DC-DC converter can then be used to run the whole module. The cheapest way is to get a LM7805 3-pin 5V regulator and boost the current output (with a heatsink attached).

Can I power the Cricket with more than 6 volts?

Handy Cricket FAQ
Remove the rectangular black component labeled D1. Then install a 78L05 or LM2931Z-5.0v voltage regulator in the 3 holes immediately underneath and to the right of the D1 position. The upper hole is the regulated +5v output, the lower hole is the unregulated input, and the middle right-hand hole is ground. Finally, replace the power supply of the Cricket with something in the 9 to 12 volt range, and you are all set.

Do I need a special power supply?

Flow meter, mass flow controller, mass flow meter, flowmeter...
No, the 810 and 820 series meters operate in using a "single ended supply" meaning you only need between 9 and 25 VDC to operate them. We sell very reasonably priced power supplies that accomplish this in a very economical manner.

If I were to upgrade to a higher wattage power supply, will it hurt my system?

FSP (GB) Ltd. of FSP GROUP
Absolutely not. Your system will only draw the amount of power it needs. The extra capacity of a higher wattage unit will improve the power supply??s operating range regulation, hold up time, ripple, cooling and MTBF.

What kind of Power Supply is needed? Can I use an ATX Power SUpply?

SIMKITS - Flight Simulator Parts - Frequently Asked Question...
The Central Control Unit is powered by a standard 200 Watt PC AT Power Supply through a diskdrive connector. These power supplies are available around the corner. The Central Control Unit on its turn powers the servos through the flatcable. The newer ATX Power Supplies do not switch on automatically when used stand-alone. These Power Supplies are switched on by the PC Mother board normally.

I have a solid-state amp and a tube amp and want to switch between them. What should I use?

Tonebone Headbone SS amp head switcher - Frequently Asked Qu...
The Radial Switchbone is an ABY box that is designed to toggle between two amps. Although not quite the same as switching heads, the Switchbone works very well, sounds amazing and will do the job.

I have a separate power supply for my Roll-Up---do I really need to use it?

Technical Support - Digitizing & Measurement Products - ...
Yes. Although the Roll-Up does get some power from the computer, the external power supply is needed to ensure a constant power source. This is especially true if you are using the digitizer with a laptop computer.

I have a separate power supply for my Roll-Up III---do I really need to use it?

Technical Support - Digitizing & Measurement Products - ...
Yes. If the Roll-Up III connects via serial port, the external power supply is needed to ensure the digitizer has a constant power source. This is especially true if you are using the digitizer with a laptop computer. The power supply is not needed if the Roll-Up III connects via USB port.

Do you have a power supply I can use for fieldbus?

Fieldbus FAQs : Relcom Inc.
We do not manufacture devices to convert AC Mains power to 24VDC. All of our Fieldbus Power Conditioners require a nominal 24VDC power supply. MTL does manufacture a Class I Division 2 power supply. Please see their web site at www.mtl-fieldbus.com
