Figured this was the best place to put it.<BR><BR>I'm making 50 ohm RF dummy load with resistors. So I'm using 0.5W metal film resistors in parallel, a fair few of them.<BR><BR>I have 49.9 ohms ...

While it might seem counterintuitive on the surface, there are a number of cases where dumping a large amount of energy into a resistor simply to turn it into heat is necessary to the operation of a ...

Testing bench power supplies would require the use of a current build and the best way to have one is to build yourself one. The article shows how a custom dummy load is built. Testing bench power ...

This project is made out of few junkbox parts and builds a useful constant current load for switch mode power supply, battery testing, and other applications. A dummy load is traditionally a big ...
