PIC SD CARD DATA LOGGER
"pinko" has designed a simple datalogger based on a PIC microcontroller that logs data on a SD Card. He writes: Some time ago I decoded to make a simple general purpose Data Logger with the following parameters for the project. it should have very simple design that should be...
Continue ReadingIkaScope – a new wireless oscilloscope probe
ikalogic.com launched "IkaScope" a new wireless oscilloscope probe that is able to make measurements directly on your mobile phone or your laptop. IkaScope transfers measured signals over high speed wifi connection and it will remember your home or office access points. It will work...
Continue ReadingRadioactivity detection using very simple ionization chamber
Robert Gawron tipped us with his latest build. He writes: Today I will show a very simple ionization chamber that can detect radioactivity. I was able to detect with it ionizing radiation from a smoke detector (Am241 isotope). It’s also immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI)...
