any ideas where I could find an ambiant air 12V tmp sensor that could be used to run a small fan (or relay) like one used in a PC power supply?
Thanks, --Lucky
ok, did some research & I think I have a handle on what a NOR & NAND do, and I get the basic idea behind the 555, but I need a little more info on the other things I have in red there, Thanks!, --Lucky
I made some changes to the schematic to incorporate what you said, and added questions (I saved a copy without the notes :) )
sometimes I wish I could just talk to one of you guys and say "ok, if I put my finger here, and runt it along this witre to that component, it'll do what?" lol. I'll...
I read it (and bookmarked it for further reading later) and that's how i've allways understood diodes to work too, in one direction. but for whatever the reason the testing procedures given in the fault Finding Chart on the Electrex site work. (see my first post, it's in .pdf format or i'd have...
changes made for clarity
If I understand diodes correctly, the will pass some current in both directions. The trick will be making the led's light up only when the proper voltages (1.5v or higher in the "wrong" direction, and roughly .50v +/- .10v in the "right" direction, sorry I don't know...
Reg/Rec wiring
Hi, thanks for the quick reply.
The rectifier portion of the R/R is directly from the Yamaha Manual. (cut & paste) so the diode setup is how it is in the piece. Other than x-raying the R/R there is no way to be sure that the drawing from Yamaha is correct, the R/R is permanantly...
Hi All, It looks like i've found a place where I can pick someones brain...
I am attempting to design a tester for my motorcycle's Regulator/Rectifier (really, just the diodes in the rectifier)
The tester needs to show that the diodes are not shorted, open and are passing current in the...
