    capacitors across a 12v line query

    Thanks for the help guys. Yeah C1 is part of a temporary voltage boost. I have been using the electrolytic one with no probs, Just thought i could save some space with the tantalum type. Ive only ever used caps before for video filters so this was sough-ta new to me. Thanks for letting me pick...

    I need to bring 12vdc down to 10v ..

    Stevo, Im assuming that you didnt want to use the 7v power source in your pc for fear of feeding back to much power to the psu ( the difference between the 5 and 12v lines) Im making the same set up but with switches to control speeds Luke i had a few quick questions regarding diodes. 1. do...
