THE INVISIBLE WATCHMAN

I remember a few years ago in the journal “modelist-Konstruktor” there is the material possibility of measuring electrical capacitance using a PC “Specialist”. Then published the program in machine code that allows with reasonable accuracy to determine the values of capacitors in the range of 0.1—1000 UF, and later version of it written in forth language, for which the wording, of course, a huge thank you!
(Continued. Beginning in № 9’01). To making a universal charging apparatus, it is recommended to proceed only after at hand will be all you need, including tools and supplies. Case size mm 300x200x200 taken or prepared, as the front panel (300×200 mm), handmade. Transformer power 250 VA, is wound on the magnetic core SHL 50×32 mm (for calculations it is more convenient to use the units of measurement universally accepted Amateur practice, when the cross section of the magnetic circuit is expressed in cm2; in relation to the SHL package recommended core 17.5 cm2). If the core is W-shaped, the sectional area needs to be 1.4 times more, that is, 24.5 cm2.
The process of establishing electronic circuits the most exciting and interesting, but also the longest, sometimes bringing a lot of grief for Amateurs due to the lack of reliable power supply. After all, the battery or the battery do not serve indefinitely — they are discharged. Changes frequently and the line voltage. And each scheme is designed for a specific voltage. Changing it degrades the operation of the entire electronic device.
The voltage is from 1 to 12 In intervals of a single oxen allows to obtain a transformer, the circuit of which is shown in the figure. If desired, the switching is easy to implement dubplates switch. Constructive data of the transformer depends on the magnitude of the input current.
