    Safety of electric power steering

    Good to hear. So then I assume that there must be a safety release or backup linkage somewhere. Thanks!

    Safety of electric power steering

    No specific brand. I did see that BMW uses a ball screw, while some other manufacturers use a worm gear on the steering column. The lock-up behavior should be roughly the same for both. I hope not, but that's why I posted.

    Safety of electric power steering

    Does anyone know if there's a backup linkage between the ball nut and the steering pinion so that the nut doesn't lock up the rack if the power goes out? Thanks.

    Types of transformers used in LCD backlights

    Just knowing that there will be magnetic transformers in the enclosure is a good start. Thanks.

    Types of transformers used in LCD backlights

    Oh, I didn't mean that at all. I used to work in a laboratory that did a lot of spindle error motion testing using capacitance gauges. We were worried about errors in the low single digit nanometers (and sometimes low double-digit picometers), so EMI was a concern. Even when the target was...

    Types of transformers used in LCD backlights

    Thanks much :smile: So panels with LED backlights run at the same voltage/amperage as the output from the AC/DC converter? I was going to ask if anyone had a part number or two so that I could look up dimensions, but a picture would be even cooler :smile:

    How common are piezoelectric transformers in computer LCDs?
