@paper peak Was able to get a pair of 915MHz RFM69s to run a couple of city blocks with simple wire antennas.

@inner spade I thought maybe just adding a counterpoise might add some gain.
Havent' tried that yet, but I can see if the signal strength is better.

@paper peak That could help, but my application didn't need more than about a city block range anyway.
Was able to cut the power level in half and maintain reliable transmissions.

So i am thinking about that inductor. It gets hot, but I think that it has done that straight out of the factory. Tempted to just leave it...
waxen thistle
@glossy glacier You mentioned it's hard to get a fan into there. What about one of those flexible air hoses (with a low flow)? https://www.tormach.com/uploads/images/Gallery/products/order_by_partnumber/30726-Segmented-Spray-Hose_MG_7283.jpg
paper peak
@glossy glacier If it is causing failures after a while, that's worrisome. Driven too hard?
The flyback?
It would get hot if the core on it is saturating.
inner spade
@rapid hornet Got to run but wanted to thank you for suggesting Discord. Like this forum!
rapid hornet
not recommended
glossy glacier
@paper peak I dont think so. It is not an area where I have had to fix anything yet.
The flyback is not getting hot, just an inductor atached to it to tune it for the odd drive frequencey.

Is that an air-core inductor, or does it have a ferrite or iron core? toroid or straight? If too much current, the core will saturate and heat up. So maybe just get a bigger one, same inductance.
nimble egret
@rapid hornet , I'm using the huzzah with circuit playground classic.
glossy glacier
Funny you should ask. It is specked as an aircore, but there was a conductive screw that had burn up and fallen out of it.
paper peak
So bigger wire, same inductance. It might be handling a lot of current.
glossy glacier
@paper peak I should probalby just replace it. I realy just want to start using the scope though.

@glossy glacier Hi, at Zenith, we used twisted litz wire to reduce the eddy currents when HD came along and we went from 15k to 40kHz in the horizontal deflection circuits. If you rewind your own inductor, you might want to consider this type of wire. Phelps Dodge makes it.

@little oak Thanks for the tip. I am going to put my tempurture probe on it tonight and see how hot it really gets, and if it really is a problem. It felt hot, but could actually be fine.
harsh bone
@glossy glacier , Did you see my idea, and Lady Ada's, about using a Peltier chiller?
glossy glacier
@@harsh bone Yeah, definitely something to consider, but if it is getting to hot I think I should replace it outright. I have one I could drop in tonight if I want...
harsh bone
You stated it was "odd".. They make tunable inductors you can make anything...
glossy glacier
The form factor and use was odd.
I should be able to get something else in though.
paper peak
@glossy glacier Could you show a picture?
glossy glacier
Old photo of it.
paper peak
Which one is the inductor in question? Do you have a pointer to the schematic or part list?
The black cylinder or the 4.7 - 250?
glossy glacier
Black cylinder.
paper peak
I am Googling but I don't see any schematics.
glossy glacier
Oh man, that is a fun one to find. I have all the shematics as large printouts. It does not specify inductance, only the number of turns.
I am starting the scope up right now to try and furture diagnose the problem. Il let you know what I find.
paper peak
Do you think the burned screw was an adjustable core to tune the inductance value? I see electrical tape around it?
glossy glacier
No, that is also not electrical tape, just a wraper the factory put on it. I have a frind with a inductance meter who is going to mesure this one for me. He already helped with one of the other inductors on the scope.
Scope is warming up. Should be go to go in about 10-15 minutes.
paper peak
That's good. If you know the physical dimensions (# turns, diameter, etc. , you can also calculate the inductance.
gray nest
FYI, a Peltier chiller just moves the heat from one side to the other. If your problem is inadequate ventilation, it's not going to help much
You still need a method to draw the heat away from the cooler
Conservation of energy sucks.
glossy glacier
I tried that, but demensions are ambiguous. Also @gray nest , i think the coil is just to under specked. Should be replaced.
paper peak
So if you look inside the wrapper, it's just an air core?
glossy glacier
Hold on, let me find you some photos.
paper peak
I'm on Eastern time and need to get to bed soon. But if you get stuck, take a photo of the schematic and the inside the wrapper, etc. I'd be surprised if the OEM part was under-spec'd, but if it gradually fried itself (like destroying an adjustment screw), then you'd want to figure out what was going on originally. It's possible it's a tuned circuit that needed to be adjusted.
glossy glacier
@stuck hollow I am not surprised an oem part is under specked. This thing is baffeling in the way some parts are put together, also this is one of the first scopes ISI ever made.
The later models are in a lot better shape than mine.
glossy glacier
This is my spare for this board, but they both are almost the exact same.
paper peak
So the screw was just fastening it to the circuit board, and it's a bobbin, probably of fine wire?
What's the function of this board?
glossy glacier
Yup. I have a photo of the inside of another core almost exactly like this. Will send that and schematic.
This is the driver for one of the flybacks for crt drive and secondary electron capture bias.
This is from a difrent spot, and a slightly difrent spec, but is almost exact same.
nimble egret
Wow, pcb still good?
glossy glacier
eh. sure.
Also, mostly complete manual for scope. http://siliconpr0n.org/media/isi/super_iiia/manual/isi_siii-a_k_instruction_manual_kc.pdf
Here we go. This is most of the scopes documentations. Most of my schematics are in better condition that this though. http://siliconpr0n.org/media/isi/super_iiia/
paper peak
woowee! looking at the schematics now
glossy glacier
Pg 3 of this is HV tank, where the good examle of the inductor came from is. It is inductor L3. http://siliconpr0n.org/media/isi/super_iiia/schem_raw/Sbizhub14042118151.pdf
Pg 13 of this is my main power supply. http://siliconpr0n.org/media/isi/super_iiia/schem_raw/Sbizhub14042118180.pdf The board with the inductor on it is N80HB01P-B crt and cint drive.
paper peak
I see an L3 on page 4m, next to T1. The value is blurry!
glossy glacier
Not a value, just turns....
The schematics for the board with the bad inductor is pg 17 right side. http://siliconpr0n.org/media/isi/super_iiia/schem_raw/Sbizhub14042118180.pdf
Inductor L1 lower left side. The whole board is the think betwen the conectors.
glossy glacier
the page on the right, lower left hand side of that. Board N80HB01
paper peak
75T? I see two 75T on left side (when rotated to upright)
Oh, I see L1 in upper right near J6-1
also notes about that l1 SMS-2I 400T
above the schematic
glossy glacier
Yup. Just rant the scope, defintly wher the smell is coming from.
Those notes are not for my scope, those are for one of the smaller models with a difrent scinticlator...
Other than that, everthing else in the supply seems very happy.
paper peak
Could be that there's a bad component nearby, like an electrolytic that's causing excessive current flow. I see some voltage measurements (?) on the schematic, but this is amazingly more complicated than I would have thought.
Do you have someone who reads technical Japanese? My brother does - he does translation work for the auto industry.
glossy glacier
I have a frind who can read regular, but not this. If you could have him look at this page that would be great.
paper peak
Maybe extract this page as an image and highlight the things you want translated. I'm not sure he would know the electronics terms, but I can show him.
But you say this might be different anyway. If you have the manual for your scope, take a picture of that.
... of the page for that board.

I particularly appreciated the discussion of HSV colorspace (Hue, Saturation, Value) as he's worked out the details for an optically-pleasing color-changer that gives good service to the human response to each hue (it understands the requirement for gamma correction corresponding to color hue).

The reason we use so many words to form utterances is for redundancy, which improves communications. Short staccato utterances wouldn't work nearly as well, in many noise environments.

What could you bump the battery to without going crazy on the weight? around 10K mAh?
pearl shoal
Please post this to the YouTube chat for those talking about powering the neopixels https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-neopixel-uberguide/power
Change to this switch and it will disconnect the power to the neopixels ( from BAT) AND ground EN at the same time: https://www.adafruit.com/product/3220
DPDT (I always get that wrong)
pearl shoal
Dual Pole Dual Throw switches control two circuits with one switch.
Running the high current draw from the 3.3V regulator can blow up your feather (just sayin')

Like duct taping two normal switches together, but much more practical
pearl shoal
Here's how to wire the DPDT approach
hard hollow
Oh! so that's what the third pin on the switch can be used for. that makes sense 😃
pearl shoal
No, Noe 😃 Your switch is SPDT - that means one circuit with two paths
You need a two pole switch
it will have 6 pins
Your third pin is where the current should go when it's "off" (usually left unconnected)
shell mason
@hard hollow if you have say vector image and want to import it to fusion 360 it need to be dxf file like save from inkscape or illustrator so it work better in fusion360 as sketch face
shell mason
@pearl shoal like how relay would do
hard hollow
@shell mason ah yeah DFX is probably a better format for that sorta thing
On some boards (like the trinket) I export DFX out of eagleCAD and pop it into f360. works good

it would work with boomy boombox face plate case as well
@hard hollow this week i watched this and make me thinking complex design like boomy boombox https://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/codechat/071

@pearl shoal interesting, ill have to pick some up and do some testing. good to have these on hand for future projects
@pearl shoal ideally i would need a lowprofile switch - i'm working on a pendent using a jewel and gemma M0
sparkfun has a nice one https://www.sparkfun.com/products/597
pearl shoal

You want through-hole. Digikey has a huge selection and you buy from them 😉
hard hollow
ah yeah, i'll have to let limor know
pearl shoal
hard hollow
it can take a few months to get things in the store. for example we're still waiting on getting those slim hdmi connectors =]
yes, nice assortment!
pearl shoal
I do worry about this particular guide. Mainly, I think someone will take your guide, put a full meter of 144 pixels on their shield (or another similar project), crank it up to 11 and blow out their feather.
fallow fractal
A jewel and a gemma m0, you should be able to run all of that off the Vout pin on the Gemma:
"Vout - This is a voltage OUTPUT pin, it will be connected to either the USB power or the battery input, whichever has the higher voltage. This output does not connect to the regulator so you can draw as much current as your USB port / Battery can provide (in general, thats about 500mA)"
No regulator so it's off the direct line of power, BUT still controlled by the gemma's switch.
@pearl shoal Yes, with a big draw, over 500ma... you're right.... maxxed neopixel at 60ma, so doesn't take huge strand...
fallow fractal
yeah, the power saving guide is AWESOME>
pearl shoal
So, 150 pixels * 20 mA = 3Amps (through the votlage regulator)
pearl shoal
Feather regulator is rated for 500mA (PEAK) https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-feather-m0-basic-proto/power-management#power-supplies
I don't want to trash you, Noe - I just don't want you getting Feathers returned when it's something you could make a note of and/or correct.
😃
fallow fractal
@pearl shoal Usage matters: 4m of 60/m pixels running on 3AAs
"The 4m reel draws about 200 mA with all pixels off (the driver chip inside each NeoPixel draws a tiny bit of current, and there’s a lot of NeoPixels). With brightness set at 1/8 max, various scrolling messages and colors range roughly from 250 mA to 450 mA."
that same strip pushed hard to light it all up at once? Yeah, that'll be a problem.
pearl shoal
There's just no benefit to running it through the 3.3V voltage regulator & the risk isn't flicker or browning out - it's frying the Feather
fallow fractal
I agree: I wouldn't power pixels thru the regulator ever...
lament flume
The advantage is not needing a level shifter
But any more than 5 I would power via 5v
To be safe
rapid hornet
@pearl shoal how would you fry the feather? wouldn't it just brown everything out?
fallow fractal
it'll heat up. The temp control will try and shut it down, and depending on how hot it goes before/if that happens.
https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=130827.0 (example of discussion)
rapid hornet
ah crazy! thanks @fallow fractal
hard hollow
@pearl shoal @fallow fractal just catching up now, really appreciate your concerns + tips! it's easy for me to update the circuit diagram and text in the guide. As it stands right now, the only issue i see will be recharging the battery – using the DPDT switches are a good idea however the 3d parts aren't designed to fit the big switch ones we have in the shop.
but yea having to disassemble the build just to take the battery out for recharging is way better than a fried feather.
shell mason
@hard hollow so that to fit bigger is just params on the switch design
pearl shoal
There are DPDT switches that are the same size (or close) to your SPDT switch. It's just that Adafruit doesn't stock them.
One option is to just add a note for now saying that if you're using > 20 pixels or so, you'll want to have a separate power supply for the strips
Or a separate switch
Then, get the DPDT in the store and update the guide when they're available.
hard hollow
@shell mason yea the CAD is relatively easy to update
@pearl shoal ah yea the easier thing to do is place red warning about not cranking the brightness past 100
pearl shoal
I know this isn't the feedback you wanted 😉
hard hollow
heh well i'm not too surprised since this sorta thing has come up before and really should be done right
hard hollow
@pearl shoal @shell mason adding that toggle switch was actually a lot easier in CAD. one feature vs 11 😫
fallow fractal
speaking of switches in CAD... The on/off switch on gemma M0 needs a 3d case with a fiddlybit of plastic to support it... (actually, a CPX case could use that too. I did see the case with button push support but it really needed to be tweaked a bit I think)
hard hollow
@fallow fractal like an additional actuator extender? that might be possible, though it is pretty tiny. it's worth a test!

@blazing atlas So the microscope uses secondary electrons to make an image. Secondary electrons are affected my a lot of diferent things, such as meterial, scan rate, local topology, spot size, and a lot of other controls, so while the image may have contrast relating to topologly, but you can coralate brightness to absuslute topology.

Well, now that I'm awake, if I'm not gonna get to geek out with @glossy glacier , I should prolly work on my leetle project. breaks out new soldering iron
kindred socket
@glossy glacier If it is still hazy consider getting an N95 mask.
lament flume
@fickle umbra what soldering iron did you get?
lament flume
Cool, it looks pretty nice for the price
It's kind of hard to know what to do when it comes to irons, I have a cheap Chinese soldering iron from literally close to 10 years ago (admittedly I stopped soldering for about 8 of those) but it's still working fine
Sorry it wasn't that cheap I think it was $50 or something
But if you listen to someone like dave jones from eev blog they are the worst thing in the world
And he would know a lot more about soldering than me
fickle umbra
@lament flume way I look at it, I could be without a soldering iron (cuz mine went missing, which I am Rather Salty about) and save up for something like a desktop hakko, which I don't really have room to leave out, or I could get one that appears to be tip-compatible with hakko, easy to stow away, and both looks and is priced like a Shenzen special. If this lasts me a year, I'll call it money's worth.

shell mason
so it was 14mins and then stopped?
rapid hornet
yeah @shell mason
kindred socket
@lament flume I think these guys do a lot of soldering so their irons have to be good for those occasional edge cases.
But I think when you solder occasionally, you're far less unlikely to hit those edge cases, and so a cheaper soldering iron might work.
hollow quest
Over the years: I started with a Weller iron, then got a Weller desktop model, and now have a Hakko desktop (888 I think, not at home). It is >>>> better than the Wellers. There are reviews which explain the pros and cons. It is a pricey choice so everyone will have a different idea of its value. Over my life, when it comes to tools, I've found it generally works out better in the long run to save a little more a little longer and get something that is really solid and will last. I didn't start out that way. Also, I've get less patient with tools which aggravate me (both Wellers fall into that category). And it does matter what you're soldering. If you're just doing some basic stuff that's one thing, if your trying to do some SMD work I'd recommend the better irons for more precise and stable temperature control. I do love my Hakko purchased after years of thinking it was crazy to pay that much for a soldering iron.
wild urchin
@hollow quest thank you for that. I am making the argument that I should buy the better tools even if they cost more. Was feeling a little outnumbered by arguments about cost-efficiency to get the job done.
hollow quest
If you look around at vids and stuff, you'll see a lot of people who are using Hakko... There a reason 😃
lament flume
I was very close to getting the hakko, but it's nearly double the price for me in Ireland than it is US
solid wyvernBOT
adafruit is live at https://www.twitch.tv/adafruit
paper peak
@lament flume I bought a used analog Hakko FX-888 off eBay, because I thought the UI of the new digital one was terrible (and ended up having to replace the heating element in the iron part). Watch out for counterfeit FX-888D's -- they're common. Adafruit sells a Atten station which they say is OK, but they recommend replacing the tip(s) provided with real Hakko tips, which are compatible and noticeably higher quality
lament flume
@paper peak thanks, yeah I tried for a while to pick one up second hand but there isn't a very big market for it in the UK and Ireland
I got outbid a weller a few weeks ago and haven't seen much come up since
The ts100 is ment to be good, so here is hoping!
UK amazon can be crazy slow to Ireland sometimes, I bought on the 3rd and its not expect to be delivered til at least the 12th
paper peak
I have an old Ungar with screw-in heating elements which is actually pretty nice, but no new parts available. I ended up spending more for the used Hakko + replacement elements than a new one, though now I have two irons (wands).
You're up late and it's not even Wednesday!
lament flume
Yeah, I had been using a really cheap temperature adjustable one from basically a grocery store, it worked OK but I couldn't find replacement heads and they didn't last too long
I know, I'm a fool!
I'm just going to be now though
03:15, tomorrow Brian is going to pay for my mistakes!
