AC Millivolts Meter Circuit Using IC 741
In this article we study an op amp based millivolt meter circuit designed to measure AC millivolts accurately, I have explained the details from the following explanation. The circuit shown below can be used to measure DC potentials in the range of milli-volts. The circuit is highly sensitive and is calibrated to measure voltages in […]
RTD Temperature Meter Circuit
In this post I have explained the making of an RTD temperature meter circuit, and also learn about different RTDs and their working principles through formulas. What’s an RTD A RTD or resistance temperature detector works by detecting the difference or an increase in the resistance of the sensor metal when it’s subjected to heat. […]
Use your PC like an Oscilloscope
As an electronics enthusiast or a hobbyist, you probably yearn for an oscilloscope to check out those elusive waveforms in your amplifier or radio. However, the cost deters you. A reasonably good oscilloscope will set you back by several hundred dollars, unless you buy a pre-owned piece or get one at the flea market. However, […]
RF Signal Meter Circuit
In this article I have explained the circuit details of a couple of very interesting and sensitive RF signal meters, which can be used for measuring the RF strength of the transmitted waves from the RF source without making any physical contacts with the source. Simple RF Signal Meter using IC 741 A RF signal […]
