- I am looking for schematic ideas or recommendations for designing the required step-down system. Since the input is a 600V DC supply, a DC-DC converter may be necessary, as transformers are typically used for AC voltage. Key considerations would include: Voltage regulation: Ensuring a stable and consistent 120V DC output.Component selection: Choosing appropriate DC-DC converter modules, capacitors for filtering, and protective components such as fuses or circuit breakers.Lighting system: Recommendations on energy-efficient lighting options like LEDs, which work well with DC power and offer durability for railway applications.Thermal management: Addressing heat dissipation within the converter and lighting circuit.Safety and standards: Complying with safety regulations for electrical systems in railways. I would greatly appreciate detailed insights into the design process, including key circuit components and configurations, as well as any schematic diagrams or references.arrow_forward1 2.

We let the system run 24/7, but we swap out the battery every 24 hours for a fully charged one and recharge the drained battery with a solar charger. Based on the signal we are sending, the light draws 2.5 A of current for 2 seconds every 5 seconds. As well, the computer sending the signal to the light continuously draws 120 mA. A 12 V lead acid battery is used to provide the power. To preserve the longevity of the battery we wish to keep the lower limit of the SoC to 75%. (a) What is the minimum battery capacity in Ah required? (b) If a 60 W 12 V solar panel was used to recharge the battery, noting that we will keep the lower SoC to 75%, how many hours of adequate sunlight would be needed each day?
