Using Geophone Sensors to detect seismic events


https://www.electronics-lab.com/using-geophone-sensors-to-detect-seismic-events/

JTAdams @ jtadams.ca has build an interface for his geophones using Raspberry Pi and managed to record some seismic events on this. He writes: I have always been fascinated with how seismic detection can see what is under the ground. So much so, that I decided to try it for myself. It works by generating […]

Control accurate incremental voltage steps with a rotary encoder


https://www.electronics-lab.com/control-accurate-incremental-voltage-steps-with-a-rotary-encoder/

by Anthony Smith @ edn.com: Experimenting with an HF oscillator, I needed to control the varactor diode voltage in precise increments over a 2V-10V range. A buffered potentiometer was the obvious choice, and connecting two pots in series to give coarse/fine control (or using a multiturn pot) would offer improved control over the varactor voltage. However, […]
