May 18, 2012, 11:27 am

Hi all, We are wondering if a solution exist (among all major ic manufacturers) to insure 10KV dielectric rigidity for digital transmission (1Mbits/s) on a small PCB. for 50K pces a year the smallest and the cheapest are the best ... Thx, H Read more »

Clarify Frequency Multiplication

  [ 2 3 ]
May 18, 2012, 3:15 am

Linear mixing of two generated frequencies is the electronic equivalent of mathematical "addition". This can be easily demonstrated in function generator software. What then is the software equivalent of "multiplying" two sine... Read more »

Photon counting (again)


May 17, 2012, 8:51 pm

I measured the 'photon' statistics on the reversed biased GaP led's as photo detectors today. I stuck an opa134 across the 100k ohm resistor to drive the 50 ohm cable and counter. RC tau = 1.5 us. About 15pF of C. (3pF from opa134 and maybe 1-2pF... Read more »

Squegging in LC oscillators


I have been playing around with my homebrew VFO, a Hartley oscillator, with a tapped inductor in the tank. Rough parameters: 6AH6 pentode for the VFO, tank resonant at 1.8Mc, plate circuit resonant at 3.6Mc. Rather low-Q plate tank (on purpose, I ... Read more »

STmicro acceleration/magnetic sensor LSM303DLH == LIS331DLH + HMC5834?


Just had a look at the LSM303DLH datasheet and had a déjà vu ;-) It looks like ST has simply put a LIS331DLH and a HMC5843 into one package. (The HMC lacks the built-in voltage regulator) All data are nearly identical, even register and I²C addre... Read more »
