Silly Job Title: Systems Architect. I am the Systems Architect!
In this video we continue to work through our Maxitronix 30in1, today doing project #7: The Sunrise-Sunset Light. In this project we see how an electrolytic capacitor can control and NPN transistor. By varying the resistor and capacitor we can change the timings of the circuit.

In this video we continue to work through our Maxitronix 30in1, today doing project #6: The Transistor and “Amplification”. In this project we see how an NPN transistor acts as an amplifier.
The HFR trigger coupling I use at the end of the video is called High Frequency Reject, it hides high frequency components from the triggering system and in this case fixed our triggering issue. I haven’t used HFR trigger coupling before. The Rigol user manual for the MSO5000 series doesn’t explain the feature, it just says: “HFR: rejects the high frequency components”.
We use the UNI-T UTG962E Signal Generator to provide an input signal, but we couldn’t get it to work properly so we used the signal generate from the scope instead.

I mention that I am reading AVR Programming: Get Under the Hood of the AVR Microcontroller Family which is written by Elliot Williams who is Editor in Chief over at Hackaday. The big thing I am hoping to learn from this book is how to generate tones, but I haven’t read that part of it yet!
The old book teardown which I have been working on is for Electric Circuits.
I have done the introduction for the Maxitronix 30in1: Introducing Maxitronix 30in1 | Maxitronix 30in1 | Learning Electronics In The Lab With Jay Jay but I haven’t done the first project yet. The thing that is tripping me up is making a decision about whether I am going to start doing the LTSpice simulations in the 30in1 videos or if I’m going to put that off until we start our next Maxitronix kit… I will have to make a decision about that soon.
I am working on Jaycar and Silicon Chip Mini Project number JMP003. But I’m stuck debugging it. I hope to catch up with that soon. I have heaps of Mini Projects to do, I am embarrassingly far behind.
I have recorded the introduction for the Learning the Art of Electronics project that we’re just about to kick off: Introducing Learning the Art of Electronics | Learning Electronics In The Lab With Jay Jay but I’m still waiting for the 2nd edition of the book to turn up. Fingers crossed it gets here in the next couple of days otherwise I will need to start on this project using the 1st edition of the book.
There’s a bunch of stuff here that has arrived in the mail so you can expect to see a mail call video covering that stuff soon as well.
