I posted this question in another section, the question above is related and part of the whole project.
I'd like some advice and help with understanding a how this whole system works, possible reverse engineering it, and then trying to adapt it for a related use. It's for toy slot cars and this is way out of the area of expertise for slot car enthusiast. I'll list what I'm trying to do and I'm open to any and all suggestions.
How does a little converter box work? It converts DC to 50hz "pulsed" DC power
The box was used on German slot car sets from the early 80's to late 90's only.
Why can't a regular dc motor "see/recognize" a 50hz pulsed dc signal?
Since the boxes are in short supply I'd like help to recreate it, the cheaper the better:)
I'd love for somebody to hold my hand through this and if I'm trying to do something stupid or impossible i'd love to know sooner than later, before i wast too much time. I can provide more details and pictures if somebody is willing to help, I just didn't want to post a bunch of information only to be told this isn't the correct place on the forum.
