Silly Job Title: Electron Herder. I am the Electron Herder!

In this video we continue to work our way through Learning the Art of Electronics. In this video we continue with 1L Lab: DC Circuits and make a 10 mA ammeter with our meter movement.

We use the 5V LED we made last weekend to test our ammeter.

We use the Riden RD6006 Bench Power Supply to power our test circuit.

We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter to measure the resistance of our 100 µA meter movement.

We use the Multicomp Pro MP701033 Resistor Decade Box for our 23Ω shunt resistor.

We use the Carpenter Mechanical Pencil to take notes.

We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

Silly Job Title: Bolt Boy. I am the Bolt Boy!

In this video we continue to work our way through Learning the Art of Electronics. In this video we continue with 1L Lab: DC Circuits and make an 10 V voltmeter with our meter movement.

We use the Riden RD6006 Bench Power Supply to provide test voltage and current.

We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter to measure voltage and current.

We use the Sharp EL-546L Scientific Calculator to do our calculations.

We use the Multicomp Pro MP701033 Resistor Decade Box as our resistor.

We use the WilliamKlein Music Stand to hold our textbook.

We use the Carpenter Mechanical Pencil to make our notes.

We use the Hakko CHP 3C-SA Precision Tweezers for tweezering.

We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

Silly Job Title: Tech Lead. I am the Tech Lead!

In this video we continue to work our way through Learning the Art of Electronics. In this video we continue with 1L Lab: DC Circuits and measure the internal resistance of our meter movement.

We use the METCAL PS-900 Soldering Station for soldering.

We use the Pro’sKit SS-331H Desoldering Pump to desolder (unsuccessfully).

We use the Riden RD6006 Bench Power Supply to provide 1V power for testing.

We use the Fluke 17B+ Digital Multimeter to measure current/voltage/resistance.

We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter to measure current/voltage/resistance.

We use the Brother P-Touch D210 Label Maker to label our circuit.

We use the Sharp EL-546L Scientific Calculator to calculate our values.

We use the ElectroCookie PCB Prototype Solderable Breadboard to make our circuit on.

We use the Multicomp Pro MP701033 Resistor Decade Box to provide test resistances.

We use the WilliamKlein Music Stand to hold our textbook.

We use the Carpenter Mechanical Pencil to take notes.

We use the Hakko CHP 3C-SA Precision Tweezers for tweezering.

We use the Plato Model 170 Wire Cutter to cut wires and trim leads.

We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

The circuit I make in this video for interfacing the meter movement is JJ001:
