Hi there, could I connect many linear voltage regulators together so I can get a much higher amperage on the output? How would I adjust the calacitor requirement? I want to run lots of 5.5W 12v led lights off a solar-charged battery array and there are cheap 12v x 1.5 amp regulators available. Would this be the easiest and cheapest way to do this?

I am using a bit of software that creates STEP files. I want to cut out some mounting holes in this object but by default in DSM, the file is read-only. I do have a convoluted way of exporting and re-importing via other software which ends up giving me a file with surfaces that I can pull, move etc. I don't seem to be able to cut a hole in a surface. As an example, one 'surface' might be like this: I have tried using the 'fill' tool and the 'combine' tool - I can't get either of these to help. If I pull the bottom surface of this base 'surface', it makes a solid  I can cut a hole in but that doesn't help much.   So 1) Can I convert a surface to a solid? 2) If I buy the DSM Exchange module, STEP files should be imported as not read-only. Would a STEP file still be imported as surfaces? or solids? Would this help in ending up with a STEP file that I can cut mounting holes in?   Many thanks.

Currently I'm pretty sure it's running off of my intel HD Graphics 630 GPU rather than the one on my actual video card, which is an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060.  I can't seem to find a setting to select which one to run off of.  Anyone got a solution?

銅箔ベタで埋めているところのレジストを一部分だけ除去したいのですが、どのようにすればよいのでしょうか？ ご存知の方がいらっしゃいましたら教えていただきたいです。   I want to remove some of the resist from the area that is filled with solid copper foil. I would like to know if you know anything about it.

Formal methods are labourious. This tries to leverage dsm to do the heavy lifting. A deliberately awkward sized truncated cone (TC). Heavily compressed for posting the animation isn't great, so here are some steps: Enter Pull mode Extrude edge on the top edge of the cone and DSM will display a highlighted point showing the location of the cone's apex. Draw a point -- in 3D mode -- at that location. Enter Sketch mode on the centre line of the TC. Draw a line from the apex to the lower edge of the cone. Draw construction circles centred at the apex, to the lower and upper faces of the TC. Back in 3D, select the measure tool and copy the circumference measure to your caclulator, then press 'divide'. Back in DSM, measure and copy the circumference of the lower edge of the TC. Swicth back and paste to your calculator; then hit 'equals'. Multiply the result by 360°. Copy to clipboard. (This gives the arc angle of the flattened cone.) Back to DSM, re-enter sketch mode on the last plane. Draw a construction line from the apex, set the angle reference to the existing construction line, and complete to the outer most circle. Use the trim tool to remove the extraneous arcs and radial lines. Convert the remaining two arcs and two lines to non-construction lines. Return to 3D mode and the surface produced is your developed TC. Do something with it.

When doing the PCB design sometime when you view the 3D model in DesignSpark software some footprints have no 3D model. How do you add the three-dimensional models on this footprints? Anybody with an idea?

This may be a very silly place for this post, but was linked to this forum by someone at RS. What clamping voltage should I have for a surge protection extension lead? For a PC in a residential home.If peak voltage is 320v in the uk, should it be anything above this? Or will this wear out the protector? Thanks for any help, or direction of where else to ask this.

hello all, i have been doing my electrical pcb designs in KiCAD and i now feel it is time to move to DesignSpark Electrical forum. Is is possible to import files from kicad to designspark electrical? if this is possible how can i achieve it?

hello guys, I have been working on my design in autodesk inventor and i now want to move the design into the DesignSpark mechanical software and continue improving it. Is it possible? If yes, how can i achieve this? Thanks!

I do remember very well, my first engineering project. it was design of  a power supply sytem to power on my small stereo sytem at home. I was in my fourth level of my high school and coming back home, i realised that my small radio was not working. on checking well i thought about the power not getting into the radio. This was obvious because on use of the small 1.5 V battery, the radio worked. I decided to come up with a power supply that could inject atleast 5V into my radio and it worked so well. I felt like a genius. In fact that is how i changed the mentality from being a lawyer to being an engineer.

Camera PCBs seems to be the best option in the future of electronics design especially in the area of security and medicine.  Is there any posibility of introduction of the microscopic PCB cameras in the near future?

When I was young, Africa had been sidelined on matters technology more so in the area of the electronic designs and automation. I grew interest in engineering so that I could change this situation and bring Africa at per to other developed nations.

can anyone tell me what charger  i need to charge this with as i no longer have the original charger and RS are no help RS recharable work light 122-8899   input 100 240V 0.6amp apparently the charger was a 100 240v 0.4amp  ?? it has a round charging pin port about 5/6 mm wide with a very small pin in the center maybe 2/3 mm so im a little confused   

Hello everyone. Iam a newbie here and am doing a project that involves use of the fleexible PCBs. I dont have much information about thi area and i really need your help on some few things. what is the best way to design flexible PCBs, which EDA software can help me out and where can i do the fabrication of the same PCB if I mange to design? Thank you!
