I am having a hell of a time with coil/points automotive ignition noise in my power supply. Do high speed transients ( 60v & < 5ns ) damage 50v aluminum capacitors? If so, what's the best way to suppress them? The 18v varistor (Digikey # F2186CT-ND) and 600 ohm ferrite (240-1016-1-ND) can't stop the noise. Would a new cd ignition generate less noise? This project is killing me, Jay _______________________________________________ http://www.piclist.com View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
