Without comment on the details of this situation, that is not how convection and conduction work. Convection is typically described by Newton's law of cooling: q=hA(T-Tamb) Conductions is q=k*dT/dx ~k (Tsurf-Tamb)/dx Thus the heat transfer rate depends explicitly on the difference between

Still $30. They should be $5 at most. The linkusb seems to 'solve' a problem I never had. On Sep 28, 2013, at 12:20, Don Veino sourceforge_...@veino.com wrote: I've been very happy with the LinkUSB, which I have used in three installations.

Hello, This is a very interesting topic. I've used ds9490s forever in various topologies wired individually with RJ and never had an issue with finding devices, using maxim's drivers on windows and owfs on Linux. It definitely gets slower as the number of devices increases, but no problems
