								11/03/97 Electronic Design - Ideas for Design / 
								An inexpensive switching regulator can provide 
								all the active circuitry needed to implement a 
								dc wattmeter and allow the power dissipated in a 
								resistive load, RX, to be displayed on an analog 
								panel meter. The wattmeter’s operation. . . |
