Only takes a simple SPST switch in the power switch and a resistor to absorb
the energy and help stop the switch contacts from burning out so fast.
Syncro motors genertae enough induced EMF to make the stop suprisingly,
quite dramatically. Many chop saws attempt to do this without the energy
absorption ballast resistor and the switch burns out in a few months.

Nah - don't need sawstop for this need Leon. A simple brake is all that is
necessary. With all of the chop saws that come with brakes today, it really
should be no big deal for a table saw to have the same capability - it's
been around forever.

Some years ago, the federal government, in its infinite wisdom, and
all the while thinking of the children, mandated that washing
machines come to a complete stop in just a few seconds (like three).

It shouldn't be hard to transfer that technology to table saws.
