I am looking to purchase a Windows CE based computer for a project. I will power the computer from an external 24 VDC power supply. The system has the following requirement: "At input voltages between 14 and 24 VDC, voltage must be ramped up at a maximum rate of 1V/mS."
Because it is possible to plug in the connector with the power on, I cannot count on the power supply to ramp up the voltage. Is there something simple I can put in the power line to absorb some of the voltage when the unit is first plugged in--a choke or something?
The minimum power requirement of the system is 500mA at 24 VDC. The power supply is capable of producing almost 4 amps at 24 VDC and will be used for powering multiple pieces of equipment so whatever I do, it can't affect the other equipment on the power supply.
Thanks,
Dale
