Sniffing out IR remote control codes with a PC
Hi, I seem to remember seeing a simple circuit for connection to a PC's RS232 port and software (DOS/Windows) for sniffing out the codes being transmitted by IR remote control handsets. FWIW I'm only...

1% colour codes
In all the years in this hobby, I suppose this is the first time I've had to look closely at resistor colour codes. My latest parts order included a few .125W 1% resistors. With glasses removed and...

AD822, good TL062 replacement?
Just bumped into it looking for quieter alternatives to the ubiquitous TL062 for a battery powered bass guitar tone circuit. Ok, power consumption is higher, but still much lower than the usual audio...

which component has exponential i-v characteristics down to 1 pA?
Looking for a circuit element that is pretty exponential in i-v down to about 1pA. Maybe even 10pA. Starting from maybe 10nA. Trying to simulate a vacuum tunnel junction for STM. I know a lot of stuff...

Re: Small VCO?
Belated followup: Thanks for the DDS idea John. I ended up shifting some I/O around and bit-banged the SPI interface to an AD9833 - works great! Bob

SDRAM Concurrent auto precharge
I see that Micron SDRAMs are claimed to support Concurrent auto precharge. Is this a common feature amongst SDRAMs? I'm using a sample of a ICSI SDRAM at present and this feature isn't mentioned in...

Refreshing SDRAMs?
In the past I'm sure I've used a SDRAM and relied upon "Activating" and "auto-precharging" every page (ie set by row and bank address) within the 64ms refresh period to ensure that all used elements...

Nixie ring counter?
There's a rumor going around that you can hook up a few resistors, capacitors, and diodes to a Nixie tube and get it to count. No extra chips, transistors, SCR's, or other 4-layer thingies. Now I...

Sigma Deltas
Hello, I have a couple of questions regarding Sigma Deltas again. From what I understand the simplest digital filter available for the sigma delta is the counter. That is you count the number of times...
