PIC16F88 SWR meter

SWR or standing wave ratio is the ratio of the amplitude of a partial standing wave at an antinode (maximum) to the amplitude at an adjacent node (minimum), in an electrical transmission line. The SWR is usually defined as a voltage ratio called the VSWR, for voltage standing wave ratio. For example, the VSWR value [...]


Capacitor meter

The capacitor meter presented here can measure capacities between 100pF and 1uF on five areas of measurement, more we can say multimeter or tester.
Circuit consists of an oscillator with variable frequency, a divided frequency and measurement stage. The Oscillator is based on a inversor from a 74HC14 and generates a frequency f inversely proportional [...]


Peak indicator circuit schematic TLC272

This peak indicator circuit signals thru 2 led’s the exceeding of a pre-estabilished value of any stereo audio channel.
Signals from the 2 channels are rectified (monoalternance) with D1 and D2 and the resulted voltage is applied on OA IC TLC272 inversor entries.
The peak indicator circuit can be used up to 20kHz frequency and the current [...]
