Re: Resistive load - 100 watt lamp.pdf

I developed this subcircuit when modeling some aircraft lamp drivers....

Prior to the LED days, Motorola once made radio dispatch consoles that used incandescent lamps for PTT and channel activity call light. These lamps were 24 VDC and turned on and off thousands of times. There was a small resistor across the open collector driver to keep the lamps slightly lit to prevent dmage to the lamp and the transistor driver.

My first round design of the T-Bird sequential turn signals (replacement for the motor/cam thingy) did that, then I went to a chip driving SCR's... interruption the conventional bi-metal way. ...Jim Thompson
