@GreatScott runs us through JFETs
He runs us through the JFET as amplifier, constant current sink, and variable resistor. He also mentions about the SiC JFET, Silcon Carbie JFETs, which have very low resistance.

Silly Job Title: Current Commander. I am the Current Commander!
In this video we take a look at the IR-08H avoidance sensor module and another similar component. Unfortunately we weren’t able to make them work in the end. :(
We use the Rigol MSO5074 Mixed Signal Oscilloscope to investigate the signals on the module.
We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

Silly Job Title: Electron Ambassador. I am the Electron Ambassador!
In this video we figure out how the power subsystem from the Space Drop circuit works. I’m a little confused in the beginning but by the end I understand how it works. The documentation for the circuit we build is here: JJ005.
We use the METCAL PS-900 Soldering Station for soldering.
We use the AiXun H314 Hot Air Gun for heat shrinking.
We use the MUIN Solder Fume Extractor to clear the air.
We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter for continuity testing.
We use the Brother P-Touch D210 Label Maker to label our JJ005 circuit.
We use the Bysameyee Head-Mounted Magnifier for magnification while soldering.
We use the ElectroCookie PCB Prototype Solderable Breadboard to build our circuit on.
We use the Hakko CHP 3C-SA Precision Tweezers for tweezering.
We use the Plato Model 170 Wire Cutter to trim component leads and cut wire.
We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

Silly Job Title: Current Curator. I am the Current Curator!
In this video we follow the instructions to build the Space Drop handheld computer game which you can buy in kit form from here: Space Drop Solder Kit.
The kit comes with the software preinstalled on the D1 Mini microcontroller, but in this video we replace the code with our own version of the code just to see if we could. And we could! Our code is here: Space_Drop.ino.
We use the METCAL PS-900 Soldering Station for soldering.
We use the Pro’sKit SS-331H Desoldering Pump to remove the OLED screen which I accidentally installed without the spacer.
We use the MUIN Solder Fume Extractor to clear the air.
We use the Bysameyee Head-Mounted Magnifier for magnification.
We use the Scotch Titanium Scissors to chop up the packaging for scrap-booking.
We use the Hakko CHP 3C-SA Precision Tweezers for holding solder off cuts.
We use the Plato Model 170 Wire Cutter to snip off component leads.
We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

Silly Job Title: Maker of Videos. I am the Maker of Videos!
In this video we do the 13th project from the Maxitronix 30in1 Electronics Project Lab Kit: The Leaky Faucet.
Here are the timing measurements we took:
| Capacitor | Resistor | Period |
|---|---|---|
| 10 µF | 470 kΩ | 3.05, 3, 2.97, 3.03, 2.98 |
| 10 µF | 100 kΩ | 0.67, 0.6, 0.8 |
| 100 µF | 100 kΩ | 7.02, 7.02, 7.15 |
| 4.7 µF | 100 kΩ | 0.43, 0.35, 0.39 |
| 4.7 µF | 470 kΩ | 1.76, 1.5, 1.56 |
We use the Rigol MSO5074 Mixed Signal Oscilloscope to look for the oscillating signal.
We use the UNI-T UTi260B Thermal Imager to check the thermals (nothing interesting to report).
We use the Carpenter Mechanical Pencil to take our notes.
We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

Silly Job Title: Electronics Guru. I am the Electronics Guru!
In this video we continue to work our way through Learning the Art of Electronics. In this video we return to 1L Lab: DC Circuits and revisit lab 1L.4.3 in which we made a 10 mA ammeter. This time around we do a better job of it, build two ammeters from different movements, and compare our results with an actual known-good ammeter.
As promised here are the notes:
We use the Tenma 72-10505 Bench Power Supply to provide 5 V for testing.
We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter to measure our resistor and as our reference ammeter.
We use the Sharp EL-546L Scientific Calculator to calculate our shunt resistance.
We use the Multicomp Pro MP701033 Resistor Decade Box as our shunt resistor.
We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.
