[Digital Tachometer?]

Hi Ante ,

Yep

I was thinking of going ahead and designing on using the 60Hz
line voltage as a sampler and using decade counters of some sort.
I'll have to think about it more.

Thanks igrecotrei,

I think using a PIC would be a bit more complicated than I was looking for thogh.

[Digital Tachometer?]

Hello All!

I've been looking for a schematic or plan for a digital tachometer.
I will be using it on my metal lathe. I was thinking using a proximity switch to trigger it. needs to be fairly accurate up to 4000rpm.

Any help would be appreciated :)

Thanks, B&M

Hi All,

Here are some of the sources I found.
I have more, I just need to find where I saved them.

[Winding your own Transformer?]

Hello Again All!

Since I left the original post I have found a plethora of information on winding your own transformers. The only thing I havn't found is a source for the Iron laminations for the cores and the Formvar coating
that is used to soak the transformer in when you are finished with the Xfmr. I can list the different sites I have found here if you all would like me to do so. It will just take a little time to put it all together.

Thanks All for responding to my post, BandM

[Winding your own Transformer?]

Hello everyone,

I am new here, so please bare with me.
I was drawn here by the Roll your own transformer article.
It was very informative and educational. I learned how to
calculate the primary and secondary windings for a power
transformer. But I would like to learn how to figure the same
for an Audio transformer. Does anyone know where I can aquire this information? :-\

Thank You All,

BandM
