This could affect all models. The heavy power could have caused a negative voltage spike that mimics a pressed accelerator. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Sudden-Tesla-acceleration-attributed-to-voltage-spikes-that-may-have-tricked-NHTSA-into-ruling-it-driver-error.732407.0.html

2021-05-10 Power Lines For Data Communication
In the late ’60s a high school friend and I worked part-time with a guy who did FCC type acceptance and other radio engineering. He bought used Hewlett-Packard, Tektronix and other high quality test equipment. One was a frequency standard which was directly traceable to the National Bureau Of Standards, now known as NIST. He

2017-11-21 Phones And Line Levels
From FB group Bell Telephone… In the days of analog phones like 500s and 2500s, Ma Bell had the phone matched to the line, so whatever the line length was, it compensated and the signal levels were very uniform, it worked great. Then came along the full duplex digital system, and everything went to hell.

2017-09-19 Giant ‘Analog Meter’ For Clock Display
FB comment “Brilliant!” Preet Sangha said, and I agree, but since I have a hard time seeing small meters across the room, I thought up another, bigger meter. How about this? Instead of meters, use a printout of a meter face, full page size. There will be one for each hour, minute and second. These

2017-08-07 Protoboards And Bypass Capacitors
From FB post One important thing that people forget to do is consider what might happen with a circuit that has anything that draws power from the protoboard. If you’re working with a few low power devices such as small LEDs and switches, then there is usually not a problem. But if you have a

2017-08-06 Seeing Digital Signals
From FB post about Arduino driving a ‘HC595 chip. You don’t need an oscilloscope to see digital signals. If you slow down the speed, you can see what’s happening by looking at LEDs. Everything is digital, just on or off. Plug two red LEDs, transistors, and current limiting resistors for LEDs (330 ohms), and for
