LC Meter Based on the AVR Microcontroller
Friday, August 14th, 2009





Calculates and displays L and C from oscillation frequency using reference components. This instrument requires two precision components: A precision capacitor and a precision inductor. You only need to start with one precision component, either the reference capacitor or the reference inductor, and using this meter, you can select or adjust the other precision component. [...]

AC Current Monitor by LM358,LM324
Thursday, August 13th, 2009





Senses high current-flow into power cables
No wire-cutting, three versions available
The basic circuit is shown top left in the drawing and must be used in all three versions. IC1 acts as a differential amplifier having a gain of 220. The small AC voltage picked-up by L1 is therefore amplified to a value capable of driving the [...]
