Cute amplifier - bootstrapped

You snipped the important stuff. You always do.

It's not even a good assembly drawing, without details of what it's used for. It doesn't have anything to make it tracable, or tell you what level the assembly or subassembly it is intended for.

Yeah, don't let the ISO9001 auditors see this sort of uncoltrolled stuff being used, either in engineering or on the shop floor. He said himself that it controls configuration.

So all of your statements are wrong. A differentiator is a differentiator even if it is not "perfect" with ideal components.

AC coupled amps are not "sort of like differentiators". They are like low pass filters. The only way to consider them differentiators is in the limit as your signal amplitude diminishes to zero. In that case your circuit is also not doing anything useful "in the limit".

I see why you have so much trouble with so many people here.

Unless they are DC coupled, they behave like bandpass filters. On their low-frequency skirt, they sort of differentiate. As a single-pole RC highpass filter sort of differentiates.

But you are arguing definitions, words. Circuits do what they do and don't care what you call them. If a circuit differentiates well enough for you, call it a differentiator. If the output is K * dV/dT over all bandwidths and amplitudes, it's a true differentiator. There are none.

The only way to consider them differentiators is in

Zero amplitude? For a linear transfer function?

In that case

Trouble? I hadn't noticed.

That isn't even suitable in most engineering departments with no project number, undated and no signature(s).

Geeze, it sounds like the state department.

Now go look at the workbook.

So, you've never worked in engineering at a company that does aerospace related work?

An assembly utilizing such a connector and keying device would only need to have one diagram on its documentation. Each product using a similar connector would have to have a different configuration. This keeps you from plugging any given device into the wrong fan tray on the aircraft.

So, in creating his drawing describing to the production staff as to how to build the device, the engineer or draftsman would utilize this to look up the configuration they intend to use on said drawing.

Then, if desired, he could grab a graphic from it and paste it into his drawing. It is simply a design and production aide.

You have all the engineering aptitude of a slug, Terrell.

If you think I have "so much trouble", and I don't, it seems like your problem.

Typical that the bastard has no response. Now that he has found out how such things DO get utilized during the design process.

Terrell and Larkin a match-up of two retards with little or no real world design prowess.

JL is so narcissistic that he thinks that anyone that responds to him is praising him.

Obviously not. I just appreciate that in an unmoderated forum, there will be all sorts of people. I tend to get along with people who are helpful and serious about electronics, and the rest don't matter.

Public forums attract idiots and old hens. This one is no different. That doesn't make "trouble" for me. If rickman, or you, want to join the my-o-my chickencoop, go for it.

To put a finer point on this, The 'diagram' generated would be uniform each and every time.

As opposed to drafting 216 iterations in a full CAD drawing format. one uses an 'engine'. This 'engine' which I have created guarantees that the graphic generated will always have the exact same pixel array size, and will import into the many drawings the engineering team creates in exactly the same way each time.

So, instead of making a drawing each time, they pump the index key number in and VOILA, the graphic and instruction is generated, in crisp line art, ready for import into an actual engineering drawing.

I know this, because the drawing which inspired me to make it was a drawing that was a 'redline markup' and had a rough graphic pasted in and no instruction, which triggered the proto assembler to inquire as to how to configure the product. I saw the opportunity to fix the redline with a uniform tool, which the mechanical team can use to insure that the instruction gets included in the same way in every location (drawing) where it needs to be.

I may make a project out of generating a mil spec connector selector which shows the keying and pin locations and donate it to Amphenol and the other guys making these connector systems.

Right now, everything is through a catalog. If I can open pop it up in excel with the line art graphic, it will be easily importable to CAD drawings.

And finally, yes, we most certainly do generate aerospace related (and approved) documents.
