    What is the best way to get 230volts at 50hz?

    Is the 230 volts at 50hz converted to DC in the circuit? EDIT: Sorry, JimB already asked that...

    Appliance recycling centers for minors?

    Hi Ben, does your school have any kind of physical/virtual message board system? A simple message such as "Broken electronics wanted - will pick up" might get you some useful bits n bobs.

    What does I/O/T stand for in a pinout diagram? (esp32-s2)

    Check the datasheet. https://www.espressif.com/sites/default/files/documentation/esp32-s2_datasheet_en.pdf Page 14: "Note: • P: power pin; I: input; O: output; T: high impedance."

    Can I use DC voltage instead of AC voltage in the PCB?

    You're right. When you submit posts that make you look like a twat, I think "Oh my God!" :D EDIT: BTW, do you have anything to help the OP, or is it just Nigel who currently gets you bent?

    Cool.

    Can I use DC voltage instead of AC voltage in the PCB?

    Not seeing a direct cross-reference from a cursory search, so I'll take you at your word... Looks like both of you failed to read the OP's link and correctly identify what was being discussed.... Thanks, been working on that for ages. Got any tips for better presentation? Might try to add some...

    Can I use DC voltage instead of AC voltage in the PCB?

    ^^ Or even a CD6282CS, which was referenced in OP's initial post: Guess very few look at links any more, even you ^^. :D iori3310 What voltage was originally supplied to the PCB at the location you circled in red? The original thread you linked to said this: 2) Direct power touch from 220V...

    low voltage AC to square wave Arduino input

    The schematic doesn't do a good job of labelling the wires, but I'd probably start with checking the yellow/black to the instrument cluster.

    low voltage AC to square wave Arduino input

    There may be a wire coming from your ECU, to the instrument cluster, which has a tachometer signal - could you use that? What are you trying to do?

    low voltage AC to square wave Arduino input

    The missing pulse is used much in advance of TDC. The missing pulse creates a point which can be reliably detected to be used as the basic timing reference. The other teeth are also used for misfire monitoring. The waveform does not have the same amplitude over a complete revolution, due to...

    low voltage AC to square wave Arduino input

    That is exactly what it is, a missing pulse. It is used by the ECU to calculate spark timing, and it occurs once per crankshaft revolution. ;)

    Voltage based relay

    Just saving this post for posterity, in case it ends up being edited after the booze/meds wear off... :D

    NE555p circuit help

    In one of his posts a short while ago, he mentioned that he was at school.

    Survey done, keep em coming as far as I am concerned. Thanks.

    new to Ardunio but trying to compile

    Empathy doesn't pay the bills, hard results do that. Back in the day, you learned, or starved. Welfare states encourage laziness.. There are givers and takers in this world. Givers might be wise to learn some limits, because the takers generally do not have them... A 'Thanks', and perhaps a...
