@ScottyUK Because I have to disappate 3.3 A * 1.6 VDC instead of .150 A * 1.6 VDC, right? Now I get it :-) Thanks for the answer.

I'm back :-) I got my boards in and they work fine. Though I have one last question: I designed in 11 SM resistors for each series chain to drop 1.6 volts. Did I make a mistake? Why wouldn't I have just one SM resistor at the start of the circuit to drop 1.6 volts and the deliver the...

Maybe this will answer my question: Does a SM resistor go at the end of the series chain? I always assumed at the start of the series chain. I thought a resistor dropped the voltage prior to it entering the series chain - thus limiting how much voltage is supplied. If it goes at the end then...

Ok now we are getting somewhere. @VE1BLL (Military) I now understand your concern. And I'm as concerned as well :-) Here is my circuit in a nutshell: 3.2 Vf typ (3.6 Vf MAX) .150 mA 24 volt CV PS supplying 3.3 A 7 series in parallel with 22 chains I calculated using typical Vf as the...

@CorBlimeyLimey (Mechanical) I thought it was specific and detailed. I did all the ground work up front. I just needed reaffirmation on the specifics of a SM resistor - how to calculate wattage for proper sizing. I would have liked at least an explanation for the deletion. It was a bit sudden...

It was a novice question since I'm a Mechanical Engineer by degree. As a Mechanical Engineer in a small company without much of an Electrical Engineer in house (supposedly coming) I wanted to seek the help of knowledgeable resources on this board. I thought this is what these forums allow -...

I had a question on this forum concerning a SM resistor in a LED circuit. It has since disappeared? There was a poster that posted an admonishment (to whom I do not know), and I checked today and it has since disappeared. Was there a violation in posting rules?

What bothers me is that there is no discussion nor presentation of SW analysis components. I'm more interested in seeing the future of Cosmos et. al.

uGlay, I was having the same problem as you. I installed 2009, and could change the precision with no problems. Then all of a sudden I was getting the error you were getting. Nothing changed with my install. Your solution worked for me as well. I would have never thought of doing what you did...

Was there a demonstration of 2010 Cosmos Simulation products at SWW 2009? I've read the info about SW 2010.

"OK, I just checked on the status of the CAE modules, including NX Flow and NX Thermal, for the Mac OS port. The porting of these modules, and that includes ALL CAE products, are being planned for NX 7. For NX 6.0.1 (if we release it) it will cover the basic CAD and CAM modules only, but there...

JMirisola, Look at my attached link. Over a 2.6 inch span there are five facets to define the smoothness of the arc. I wouldn't mind maybe 100 to define the smooth arc, but not 5. This doesn't change regardless of the settings. I decided to extrude a circle. It was somewhat faceted initially...

It's a Quadro FX 1400 set to Solidworks. 4 GB's of memeory Win XP Pro If I extrude a circle, and change the image quality the circle is smooth. So I don't think it's a graphic/screen issue. Is the arc smooth? - yes Does it look smooth? - No

Here's a link to what it looks like: http://i11.tinypic.com/67evigp.jpg

I created an arc and then extruded a thickness and length. When shaded, the arc exhibits faceted faces as opposed to a smooth surface. I went to Tools/Options/Document Properties and bumped up the Image Quality to High for both shaded and Wireframe. Still looks facted. I'm inserting this part...

SWEET. Didn't see that option. Thanks guys!

I have a long part that will be broken on a drawing. I want to replace the existing length dim with -> "L" (I will have a table for different lengths "L"), in a sense overriding the true dimension. I can delete the <DIM> nomenclature in the Dim Prop Panel and type "L", but I would also like to...

CorBlimeyLimey, I'll check that out and get back to you tomorrow.

weird I just created a new part fresh (I received the one part from a colleague of mine in the same company). I recreated the same geometry, and it looks great!!!!! Why would a part from another SW seat not conform to my settings? Yes CorBlimeyLimey the video card is set to Solidworks. Monitor...

Running SW 2007 SP 3.1 if that helps. I just got a new computer, and a fresh install of SW. I get my VAR involved. Thanks for the help everyone.
