PIC32 project : all in one instrument - metering

COMA+ is PIC32-based instrument that can be used as calculator, oscilloscope, multimeter, analyzer and more. Ganzziani, project designer, said that one important goal project is to make the instrument low cost, so the capabilities of the PIC32 are being maximized. Since the device is going to be handheld, the power consumption needs to be [...]

capacitor-ESR-tester

ESR (equivalent series resistance) is one of the characteristics that define the performance of an electrolytic capacitor. Low ESR is highly desirable in a capacitor as any ripple current through the capacitor causes the capacitor to heat up due to the resistive loses. Typical capacitor checker measures the capacity of the test capacitor. Some [...]
