Testing the TK Tar Baby

This howler is so blatant that it made it into my "Ainslie Fail" file for posterity.

PW says:  "...will be dissipated in the 50R and to a lesser degree in the left side body diode and in the right side drain to source resistance. "

Right side drain?  Source resistance?  What are you talking about?  If you mean the drain or source legs of Q1 or Q2 then say it.  If you are referring to the drain or source rail of the battery then say it.  This entire phrase is entirely undefined.  It is the simple 'rule' of science that terms must be defined and clearly expressed.  Anything less and we're NOT talking science. 

And yet anybody who knows anything about mosfets understands perfectly well what PW is talking about because he is using completely standard and universally understood terminology. Universally... that is... outside of the Ainslie brain.

Here's my question again - picowatt.  Or are you not able to give that cogent argument that you infer is everywhere evident in your posts?  I see that TK has assisted you in taking the focus back to a general criticism of me.  But that's fine.  I'll just keep reminding you.

Rosemary,

Exactly what "argument" of mine, that you feel I need to explain, are you referring to?

PW

You have endorsed TK's 'debunk'.  You are now falling in line with Groundloops suggestion of its being a Colbitt's oscillation.  The question is this.  How do you explain our measured negative wattage - and how do you explain the positive half of each oscillating cycle? Put your neck on the block here picowatt.

And this one is so important that I preserved it also.

Sorry Groundloop.  I'm working these posts reading 'latest' first.  Just a point here.

    My point was that the current (if any) from the FG at the positive pulse will NOT go to the RLOAD but will be burned as heat in the 50 Ohm instead.


Not so much.  On both the 555 switching circuits AND on our NERD Q-array - we're able to heat the load to significant levels purely from that oscillation. No current drawn from the battery at all during the 'on' phase - or when the signal at Q1 is positive.    Not sure where you're going with this - but bear that in mind.

Kindest again
Rosie

Emphasis all mine, this time.

Facepalm.

While you are at it, explain MY negative wattage.

What debunk? Tar Baby performs just like NERD so how could it possibly be a debunk? I have already shown the same evidence you have shown: a negative wattage.  Therefore it's not a debunk at all but a CONFIRMATION of your results, dimwit Ainslie.

And I don't recall PW ever "endorsing" my work at all. I'm a piker compared to him and I'm learning a lot from his posts. When you are asleep, that is.

ADDED: Learn to spell, or at least learn to Google. It's Colpitts, not Colbitts, isn't it, even after your emphatic edit you STILL didn't correct it.

And how do YOU explain MY negative wattage?

I told you, PW. She knows more about mosfets than anybody in the world. Talk about Rdss and she can't even read the data sheet. SHE HAS NO MATH. At all. If she can't push a button on a calculator, forget about it.

And she does stuff like this just to piss people off, and it works for me.

TK,

I saw that and just let it slide.  I am not easily goaded.  I truly appreciated the reposting of the drawing.

My brain is trained to filter out digs and jabs, insinuation, sarcasm, cynicism, denegration, etc. (and red glowy text).  Makes life much more pleasant.

Besides, such things are more often a reflection of the user, not the target.
