After reading this, I started thinking, where ever a live circuit touches a person, or where ever two points might touch, would that determine the effects of being electrocuted? My dad who is an ET, (Electronic Technician) for those who believe in UFOs, told me before that the body supplies a...

Thank you, I think I may can work with that. One problem I have had though is searching for particular parts. Other than Newark and Radioshack, are there other places to buy electronic parts from.

I'm not really an experienced EE nor have I gone through actual classes yet. Most of what I already know I learned from my dad who works with electronics or from his old college textbooks. I'm not really sure exactly what I would use capacitors for so whatever I would be using it is probably...

Can any of the other "CAD" programs work as well. I have ViaCad on my computer, it has a majority if not all of the electronics symbols. Will that work or is there something else that OrCad offers

I'm sorry for putting my two cents in, but you do realize that it is the voltage capability that kills, otherwise signs wouldn't say, "danger high voltage." Amperage is only determined by the resistance in the load and the voltage potential. Please anyone of you experienced engineers jump in...

Thank you for your reply. My main problem is that I am trying to design my own "green" power supplies, and I either only know how to make them generate DC voltage or only have the supplies to generate DC voltage. I am trying to work around that problem though, but it is adding a lot more to my...

What do I need to connect a solar panel to household power. Is it possible to make an inverter or buy one to convert power from a solar panel into power that I could use in the house. My problem is that I like designing electronic circuits for my own projects, and a couple of them requires AC...
