On sale 2 May 2019

LC Meter

This self-calibrating digital meter is based on a custom Arduino shield. It has

an amazing measurement range from under 1pF to over 1F (yes, one farad!)

and under 100nH to several henries. A must-build piece of equipment!

USB Flexitimer

Here’s a very fl exible timer that can switch its relay at intervals from

milliseconds to days. It can be triggered by an external pulse or set to run

continuously, switching its relay on and o at a particular interval.

MIDI Ultimate Synthesiser – Part 5

Next month is all about MIDI – both as a general topic and how

it is implemented within the MIDI Ultimate.

Low-cost Electronic Modules – Part 17

Learn to use a highly linear 4GHz digital attenuator, which is programmable over

0-31.5dB in 0.5dB steps. Great for avoiding overload in a mixer or amplifi er.

Teach-In 2019 – Part 7

In Part 7 of Teach-In 2019 we will be introducing negative voltage converters and

taking a detailed look at thermal design considerations for power supplies.

Make it with Micromite – Part 5

In June, more on digital inputs and outputs – we’ll

build the Electronic Dice mini-project.
