    AC Current or Zero crossing measurement

    I think I'm getting closer and thanks for the suggestions but I can't see how this helps for measuring current zeros. My TRIAC thoughts were to somehow determine current thru the device - again, I'm a TRIAC newby so this may/may not be possible.

    AC Current or Zero crossing measurement

    I'm actually working on something that incorporates power measurement. Current can range from near 0 to 15 amps. The current transformer idea might work but was hoping to incorporate the components onto a PC board. I can probably do that with the transformer but I recall seeing somewhere the...

    Guidelines and help in regard to home-based prototyping

    ssop 28 etch print This is probably out of the league of the average hobby electro but one method I've used is to mill out circuits. Now, I happen to have built a mill to do that but I think there are some out there for the sort of $1200 USD range. It really comes down to a cost trade off. Over...

Also, I found the dev tools a little cheaper and better engineered - particularily when working in C. Just...
