Inside the SDS7012 Oscilloscope: Mainboard Analysis
Posted on: 26 Jul 2016
Another look at the hardware in the SDS7102 May 27, 2016 This is a post in a series about me poking at the insides of my OWON SDS7012 oscilloscope. You might want to start reading at the beginning. I’ve been a bit busy with work lately and haven’t had time to do a lot of […]
LTC Design Notes: Micropower Isolated Flyback Converter with Input VoltageRange from 6V to 100V
Posted on: 26 Jul 2016
Introduction Flyback converters are widely used in isolated DC/DC applications because of their relative simplicity and low cost compared to alternative isolated topologies. Even so, designing a traditional flyback is not easy—the transformer requires careful design, and loop compensation is complicated by the well known right-half plane (RHP) zero and the propagation delay of the […]
Mirror “Tube” – LED Optical illusion
Posted on: 25 Jul 2016
One day, looking for interesting schemes with light effects to construct, came across this wonderful effect. Quite liked the idea but did not know how to accomplish is, until one day found the way. Subsequently construct my own mirror that had to not only try out my skills in electronics but and processing of wood […]
Uncompromising quality audio connectors for a compromising price
Posted on: 25 Jul 2016
Long term reliable contact without interference, creaking and hum, moreover in a beautiful coat – these are the Neutrik / Rean connectors. Connectors have in general one interesting feature – there are many similar or almost the same connectors on the market. Audio connectors are not exception in this. Even though they look the same, […]
High Current Discrete Half-Bridge Based on IR2104 or IR2101
Posted on: 25 Jul 2016
Rajkumar Sharma http://www.rajkumarsharma.com 272 Half-Bridge-Based-on-IR2104-PIC This is a discrete Half-bridge driver based on IR2104 gate driver IC and low impedance high current N channel IRFP4368 MOSFETS. The IR2104 is a high voltage, high speed power MOSFET driver with independent high and low side referenced output channels. HVIC and latch immune CMOS technologies enable ruggedized monolithic […]
One-chip sound player.
Posted on: 25 Jul 2016
The purpose of this project was to create a sound player that can play high quality sound using nothing but a single chip (plus an SD card for data storage). The chosen microcontroller was the PIC12F1840. It was chosen because of its fast clock rate (up to 32 MHz). Since microchip PICs have this atrocious […]
Interactive LED Beer Pong Table 2.0 (BPT X5)
Posted on: 24 Jul 2016
The nice thing about building one of these tables from a kit is that the more difficult parts of the project have been completed (Electronic Design, PCBs made, etc.) but more importantly, you can fully customize the table to your liking. The photos that I posted above are of the version that I created, but […]
Video generator with PIC
Posted on: 24 Jul 2016
An black and white monitor needs to improve and repair from about 1990-th. The repair of device was not difficult but it caused troubles for the testing and setting of the monitor. We have a pattern TV generator, but this instrument are produce on the composite video signal for monitor. Unfortunately this monitor is demand […]
Simple nanosecond-width pulse generator provides high performance
Posted on: 24 Jul 2016
If you need to produce extremely fast pulses in response to an input and trigger, such as for sampling applications, the predictably programmable short-time-interval generator has broad uses. The circuit of Figure 1, built around a quad high-speed comparator and a high-speed gate, has settable 0- to 10 ns output width with 520 ps, […]
PIC12F675 Tutorial 5 : A Temperature data logger using PIC EEPROM
Posted on: 24 Jul 2016
This PIC microcontroller EEPROM project saves the temperature from an LM35DZ IC to the PIC’s internal long term data storage area. The project follows on from the last project using the virtually the same hardware. It stores temperature readings internally at regular intervals until full and after this it turns on the LED. The LED […]
