Is your power amplifier fuse blowing during power switch ON? It could be happening due to the initial high current drawn by the loudspeakers, when power is switched ON. The simple amplifier fuse protection circuits presented here can be effectively used for solving the issue. The problem is commonly seen in high power amplifiers, where […]

Prevent Relay Arcing using RC Snubber Circuits
In this article I have explained the formula and techniques of configuring RC circuit networks for controlling the arcing across relay contacts while switching heavy inductive loads. Arc suppression An arc is produced across the contacts when a switch or a relay is opened. With time, this condition can wear down the contacts. To overcome […]
PWM Motor Soft Start Circuit to Prevent High Consumption during Power Switch ON
In this post I have explained an effective PWM motor soft start circuit which can be used for enabling heavy motors with a soft start and thus prevent the equipment from drawing dangerous high currents. Why a Soft Start High wattage motors such pump motors or other forms of heavy industrial motors tend to draw […]
