MEP EP#254: Ridiculous Relay Ratings
Parker
PinoTaur updates REV 4
Automotive relays are not certified to run at the voltages we need
G2RL-1A-E-CV DC12
Max voltage rating is 300VDC
“Rated” current is 24VDC at 16A
G2RG-2A-X DC12
Rated at 500VDC at 10A
Looking at other relays used for this purpose in production machines… Am I missing something in choosing the correct relay?
RGB Light string split into two
Power current is the reason
Foxconn Electronics hit by Ransomware
$34 million ransomware attack
Stole 100 GB of unencrypted files, and deleted 20-30 TB of backups.
Bike rack as an inductor?
Other normal items that could be seen/used as a electrical components

The FX Dev board returns
2 versions of the fx dev board now exist
ProtoBoard
Protis 1
Both look like they ditched my ac power supply for a charge pump design
Protoboard uses TC1044SCPA
Charge pump to create a -9V from a +9V
Not sure what Protis uses but it is likely similar
FCC was a very big reason why I opted to do this
Negative Voltage Inverter
Both opted to not do the integrated soldered breadboard
This was the reason the FX dev board existed!
This helped make things very clean
