Today, 09:55Another point worth mentioning is the PIC range have Baud rate generators that can hold any 8 or in some cases 16 bit number. They are not confined...11 replies | 352 view(s) -
Yesterday, 09:57Even with cheap RS422 drivers/receivers (8-pin ICs) you can reach distances of Kilometers quite easily, even at high data speeds. For almost...10 replies | 328 view(s)

23rd January 2020, 21:18betwixt replied to a thread load sensing circuit/relay in Hobby Circuits and Small Projects ProblemsSorry for the delay, I've been busy elsewhere over the past few days. I don't think you need a transformer and optocoupler, both provide isolation...9 replies | 499 view(s)

23rd January 2020, 21:08betwixt replied to a thread HAM radio topic: EM based design of a 432 MHz high pass with 144 MHz rejection in RF, Microwave, Antennas and OpticsThank you Volker. This is a simple to build but high performing filter that I'm sure many of us will find useful, even in non-contest situations. ...5 replies | 466 view(s)

20th January 2020, 23:05betwixt replied to a thread Testing Amps on rewound microwave transformer in Elementary Electronic QuestionsIf you mean this: It isn't correct.

20th January 2020, 10:12betwixt replied to a thread Testing Amps on rewound microwave transformer in Elementary Electronic QuestionsWhat exactly are you trying to measure?

19th January 2020, 21:33betwixt replied to a thread load sensing circuit/relay in Hobby Circuits and Small Projects ProblemsIn principle your design will work but it has some drawbacks, there is an easier way! The problems are that you drop some of the line voltage in...9 replies | 499 view(s)

18th January 2020, 17:44betwixt replied to a thread Regulating temperature of mains connected heating element: Skipping mains half cycles in Power ElectronicsThe offset would only occur on the start of a conduction cycle, if you use SCR/Triac switching it will turn itself off accurately anyway.

18th January 2020, 17:40The inverters (NME0505 etc.) take DC in and produce DC out, they are very small, about 10mm x 15mm x 6mm and have four pins. The two output pins are...11 replies | 862 view(s)
