I’m redesigning my clock board and I would like to make some safety improvements. My actual board has two fuses, one for the 12V DC input and one for the HV output. In order to prevent overheating (fire), I also would like to monitor the temperature inside the case adding a DS18B20 to the board. If the temperature exceeds a predefined limit the idea is to shut down the HV. In normal operation with 6 x IN-18 the only component that gets a bit warm is the HV coil but you never know.
Is temperature monitoring an overkill? Any other ideas to improve the design safety? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
