[QUOTE="Bennett Prescott, post: 99344, member: 4"] Hey Frank, Sorry I'm on my phone posting or I'd have some actual data to show you. Email me or remind me later when I'm on my laptop and I can dig it up. Short story: VC temp rise when presented with a signal at long term thermal limits is on the order of a half an hour. Therefore I would use pretty long time constants for a limiter designed solely to keep the VC un-burned, like 6 second attack and 20 second release or something. As for peak limiters, good luck. They are great at keeping electronics from limiting. It is really hard to control excursion with one. [/QUOTE]
