My dear Leon,

Regarding this rather fatuous disclaimer - with or without respect...

And this demonstrates once again that Ainslie apparently cannot read or understand English sentences-- or rather CHOOSES to bloviate, lie and misrepresent whenever she can. Where in my statement do I say or imply that I think FAME is imminent?  Rather, say that I think that someone is waiting for my videos and is watching them as soon as they appear. This, I do find slightly scary. It has nothing to do with FAME, which is clearly Ainslie's goal. Rather, it has to do with my desire to protect myself and those close to me from IDIOT THREATS that I've received from people like Ainslie.

Your rather heady rush to confuse a limited interest with 'fame' is also rather overwhelming evidence of your own rampant delusions.  Why else would you confuse interest with fame? And if you are 'frightened' by me then there is yet more evidence of your rampant delusions.  I am merely a really old woman with nothing stronger at my disposal than my rather limited language skills to counter your excessive efforts as a self declared Southern State Racist Vigilante - with the flaunted mission to 'tar and feather' me and together with me - all our hard work.

And as for this...

Ainslie seeks once again to divert attention from the major issues: The circuit makes NEGATIVE MEAN POWER measurements using other transistors than the IRFPG50, and the circuit DOES INDEED draw current from the bias source.

This 'spin' is to do with your need to IMPLY that I have stated that ONLY an IRFPG50 is the required transistor.  I have gone so far as to state that just about any transistor can be used in place of that IRFPG350.  It ONLY needs a diode and that diode can be added to any transistor at all.  SO.  What is your point?  Other than a spurious attempt to apply some relevance to what you loosely term 'tests'?  So that you can justify keeping this thread open to continue with your 'tarring' objectives which you've stated in the theme of this thread?

And guys - another 'red alert' to yet more misdirections.

In our second test we simply and deliberately adjust the settings and use this to show you that notwithstanding the high input during the on period we still measure a COP INFINITY.  What picowatt is 'spinning' or 'tarring' is the implication that we cannot adjust those settings.  Be cautioned.  It's just more 'tarring' with that tar brush.  And we all know why.

In FIG3 of the first paper, during the period wherein the FG output is a positive voltage, the 'scope shot is indicating that +12 volts or so is being applied to the gate of Q1 which should turn on Q1.  The CSR trace during that same time period indicates no significant current flow, therefore Q1 is not turning on.  This can only mean that Q1 is either disconnected or damaged.

Your assertions with regard to not reading the 'scope shots correctly or needing to somehow factor in the OFS numbers has been easily disproved by a call to LeCroy in NY.  The voltage applied to the gate of Q1 is as it was stated to be, approx +12, and therefore Q1 is not functioning properly in FIG 3.

My dear MileHigh,

You, like picowatt - assume that you cannot be wrong.  Sadly.  I assure you that our ground pin is a required condition of operating that LeCroy.  And that recommendation is NOT so much recommended as REQUIRED.  And while I am reasonably certain that LeCroy would want to protect their users against any possible chance of electrocution - they have an equally urgent need to protect that machine against power surges.  We, in South Africa - are subject to CONTINUAL power surges - courtesy the sad standards that are applied by ESKOM - a monopolist grid supplier.  And while the ground pin does not ALWAYS offer protection - it MOSTLY is enough.  Therefore is that ground pin required.  It is NOT required by Tektronix.

PW just explained this stuff to you and your skull is too thick and it did not sink in.  Having the ground pin connected does not protect the machine in any way against surges.  By the way, just go buy a surge protector for your expensive equipment.

The ground pin is there to prevent you from getting electrocuted.  That's what it is there for, it's not there to protect the equipment like you state above.

One more time, another ASSUMPTION that you make out of pure ignorance is wrong.  You navigate though this whole project about half of the time based on your ASSUMPTIONS due to your lack of experience and education.  For most of the ASSUMPTIONS that you make, you don't have a clue if they are right or wrong.

Face it Rosemary, a lot of what you do to navigate through this electronics maze is just "purple haze" screaming in your brain.  You just hope and cross your fingers that you are right and a substantial percentage of the time you are dead wrong.  It's going to be quite a barrel of monkeys when you take the plunge into the purple haze and try to do a new round of experiments.  I am anticipating that you will not ask for help even though you know that we would be glad to respond to your questions.

And when you lapse into the use of 'purple hazes' and things that 'scream in the brain' - then you've lost me.  I simply do NOT know what you're referring to.  Any more than I know what a cracker box is.

Guys - picowatt seems to think that he can promote those same arguments that have already been disproved.  I've said it before.  This entire thread is INFINITELY circular.  I think I'll pass on arguing it again.  Just know that it's wrong.  In every sense of the word.

And this latter part of his post needs PROOF.  Not ALLEGATION.  I can EASILY disprove it as I will DEMONSTRATE that the MOSFET IS NOT BLOWN.  And then I will PROVE that the voltage changes when we apply the AC coupled value.

Rosemary

TK,

Some off-line switchers do use L1/L2 to Ground decoupling, and in those units, RF emission and HF spikes can be reduced by a decent AC ground connection.  Usually there is so much inductance in the AC wiring back to the mains panel that "spike" reduction (and RF emission reduction) is minimal at best with normal AC connection practices.  That is why a lot of switcher supply cords (monitors, laptop supplies, etc) use a ferrite core in the line cord to reduce RF emissions.

As for large variations in the supply voltage or lower frequency transients, the AC ground will be of no use in stabilizing that.

Just wanted to be very clear.
