    Board Design Programs?

    Hi crazy_azz_mat I've used Target 3001 and it's very good and has lots of support. The one I currently use is Eagle as I find it slightly more intuitive to work with, it too has lots of support on the web in the form of tutorials, FAQ's and libraries.  The free version has a size limit of, I...

    Electric Lock

    Hi Kasamiko back in the 'ol bicycle shop days, my uncle showed me an electric lock that he'd designed, it consisted of a C and I core mains transformer with the C part fixed and the I part vertical and free to move laterally in a guide.  The free side of the I part was attached to a door-bolt...

    Electrolytic cap polarity markings

    Hi audioguru Don't know, but it caught me out some years ago, I'd guess at about the time when most cap manufacturing started being done in the far east. Cheers Ed

    How to sens a laser with No error?

    Hi Shahriar one way to do what you need is to have two or more beams separated by some distance so that, for example, a bird flying through one beam wont trigger the other(s). Some other non-laser ways to achieve the same thing: It just depends how much technology you want to include...

    To Find Working transformer

    Hi alkv23 What kind of transformer do you need to check?, there are many kinds and each will have different requirements for testing. Types of transformer: Power (mains) Audio Pulse Radio Frequency (RF) and others which are less frequently encountered. Best of Luck Ed

    Conversion of square wave to sine wave

    Hi MP Couldn't agree more, one of the more pleasant aspects of this community is the relative lack of FLAMERS and the helpful attitude of most of the people involved. Whilst English is the common language here, it should be remembered that not everyone has it as a first language or that they...

    Conversion of square wave to sine wave

    Hi ebena as a starter, remember that a square wave can be constructed from an infinite number of sine waves, therefore in theory a suitably narrow band filter will be *all* that is necessary Best of Luck Ed

    Need Ic which can Enable Its outputs One by One!

    Hi again Or alternatively, you could use a series of flip-flops with common clock/clear and Q output taken to D input of next flip-flop Best of Luck Ed

    Need Ic which can Enable Its outputs One by One!

    Hi Shahriar Looks like an ideal and simple job for a PIC - perhaps 16F84?, Port A 8 bits, Port B 5 bits. Best of Luck Ed

    new idea.. help~~

    Hi birdbird, can I suggest a very good starting point for you, which is to read a book call "Who is Fourier?" (ISBN 0-9643504-0-8) which is an introduction to Fourier transforms but more importantly builds up to an understanding of the subject based on the differences between sounds. Best of...
