Re: New Vector Monitor Project: Microprocessor, etc...

That sounds like a nice little microprocessor. Clay, Are you using the 20
pin DIP Package? We should think through exactly what functions would be
offloaded onto it. Doesn't one of those have a PWM on board? Maybe it can
be a power supply controller too. (major stretch here) Just brainstorming.

I'm looking carefully at the National LM3886 Power OP AMP for direct yoke
drive, and it doesn't cost the $100+ each like some of the other <choke>
cool ones do, and it has all kinds of protection circuitry, and Class AB
circuitry.

Rodger is going to look at the LM3886 to see what complaints he might have
with the device, and I might throw up a proposed 1st order schematic for
that circuit soon.

Have a nice day all,
James
