    Maximum current through wire

    Thanks for that! Will be very interesting to see how how it actually gets. i cant imagine it getting as hot as 100C but who knows!

    Maximum current through wire

    Re: maximum current through wire yes its often branded on ebay as such and with ludicrous markups to boot! I use it because i am making a very fiddly project and this is the thinnest, most workable wire i could find. i think i might just have to do some testing myself by wrapping the wire...

    Maximum current through wire

    Hi there. Could anyone confirm what the maximum amount of current **broken link removed** wire could handle at a length of 30cm please? Ive looked at this website and it says that 30 AWG wire can handle 0.86A for chassis wiring.Would like to hear peoples thoughts on this specific wire. im not...

    What is the relationship between the size of a capacitor and its rated voltage?

    I see, thanks! Would it be possible to use a ceramic capacitors in this instance, to reduce the noise in my mp3 module as they are a lot smaller...

    Soldering directly to battery terminals

    This did come to mind actually. Thanks for that its good news as those little connectors are very tricky to get hold of unless you are happy paying through the roof or want a 1000 of them!

    Soldering directly to battery terminals

    Thanks for the quick reply, Would you be able to elaborate on what you mean by removing the strip please? Thanks.

    Soldering directly to battery terminals

    Hi all. quick question: Is there any danger in soldering directly to battery terminals in the short and long term? i ask because i want to make use of the bl-5c lithium ion battery for a project. it is possible to **broken link removed** battery contacts for this particular battery but they are...

    Simple envelope detector

    I see how you are digitally rectifying using the microcontroller but this would require a high sample rate which i dont want to use. my thought were that by using a half bridge rectifier one could get a very crude approximation of when there is an isnt sound by charging up a capacitor when the...

    Simple envelope detector

    Im not quite sure why the average needs to be calculated; My aim was to adjust the PWM output on the fly depending on whether the ADC sample registered as above a base level or not(2.5v). In terms of rectification, the signal is already only positive. it is 0-5v with 2.5 being the base level...

    Simple envelope detector

    Thanks very much for this folks. I'm going to jump to KlausST due to it being more within my current scope of understanding, I hope that does not appear rude Pjdd.... It is not a sophisticated application indeed, it is purely aesthetic... The rectifying "smoothes out" the signal, stopping it...

    Simple envelope detector

    Yes the full audio spectrum within hearing range. The audio will be a voice and the led will act as a means of giving some visual feedback to the audio (I'm making a talking character). The amplitude is not too much of a problem as I think I want the led at full intensity at the beginning of...

    Simple envelope detector

    Hello folks. I have an audio signal which has its mid voltage at 2.5v and oscillates through to 5 and 0v. I would like to sample this signal on an Arduino and use PWM on an led to react to it. I made a piece of software a while back and it worked but I had to set the sample rate at a very high...

    quick fit contact charger troubles

    Hello there electronophiles. I am trying to make a simple circuit which utilises one of these to charge a lithium battery. My idea is to create a removable 'docking' system which allows easy charging. the problem i am facing is that the module behaves strangely when using the systems i have...

    A simple system to generate an up and down movement on a small characters head

    Hello everyone. I want to create a small character with a head which moves up and down to give the impression of laughter. So some sort of linear actuator. its only a small character and so only needs a small amount of movement, maybe about 5 - 10mm. i am wondering which is the best way to...
