Aus der Reihe "Stromversorgung ohne Stress" (Band 3) Elektronik ohne Batterien oder Versorgungsnetz Für den Betrieb moderner elektronischer Bauteile ist vergleichsweise nur noch wenig Energie notwendig. Dies eröffnet neue Möglichkeiten, wie z. B. Schaltungen und Baugruppen, die ohne Batterien oder Akkumulatoren auskommen und auch keinen Anschluss an das Versorgungsnetz benötigen. Damit entfällt auch ein großer Teil des Wartungsaufwandes. Die Baugruppen arbeiten weitestgehend „für sich alleine“. Die Energie wird auf unterschiedlichste Weise aus der Umgebung gewonnen. Dazu sind allerdings spezielle Techniken erforderlich. Nicht nur zur Gewinnung der Energie – auch zur Umformung, so dass sie für elektronische Schaltungen nutzbar ist. In diesem Buch geht es um die Bereitstellung kleiner Energiemengen, mit denen kleine Geräte (Sensoren, Sender und Empfänger für QRP oder Datenübertragung, etc.) völlig autark betrieben werden können – wenn möglich, mit Bauteilen aus der Bastelkiste und ohne komplexe, spezialisierte Integrierte Schaltungen. Die am Thema interessierten Elektroniker und „Macher“ lernen hier, wie sie eigene reale Energy-Harvesting-Projekte mit Teilen aus der Bastelkiste umsetzen können, ohne vorher viel Zeit für lange theoretische Abhandlungen aufzubringen. Gerade beim Energy Harvesting ist es jedoch nicht immer möglich auf Spezial–ICs zu verzichten. Es geht eben um jedes µW und es ist leicht nachvollziehbar, dass es einfacher ist, auf einer kleinen Chipfläche mit wenig Energie zu arbeiten, als bei einer ausladenden Schaltung mit umfangreicher Verdrahtung. Die mehr „theoretischen“ oder grundsätzlichen Themen wurden in die einzelnen Kapitel und Projekte eingestreut. Den vollständigen Überblick erhält man deshalb erst, wenn man das Buch in Gänze gelesen hat. Dafür kann der Leser bereits im 2. Kapitel ein erstes Projekt umsetzen.

Develop innovative hardware-based projects in C The Raspberry Pi has traditionally been programmed using Python. Although this is a very powerful language, many programmers may not be familiar with it. C on the other hand is perhaps the most commonly used programming language and all embedded microcontrollers can be programmed using it. The C language is taught in most technical colleges and universities and almost all engineering students are familiar with using it with their projects. This book is about using the Raspberry Pi with C to develop a range of hardware-based projects. Two of the most popular C libraries, wiringPi and pigpio are used. The book starts with an introduction to C and most students and newcomers will find this chapter invaluable. Many projects are provided in the book, including using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to establish communication with smartphones. Many sensor and hardware-based projects are included. Both wiringPi and pigpio libraries are used in all projects. Complete program listings are given with full explanations. All projects have been fully tested and work. The following hardware-based projects are provided in the book: Using sensors Using LCDs I²C and SPI buses Serial communication Multitasking External and timer interrupts Using Wi-Fi Webservers Communicating with smartphones Using Bluetooth Sending data to the cloud Program listings of all Raspberry Pi projects developed in this book are available on the Elektor website. Readers can download and use these programs in their projects. Alternatively, they can customize them to suit their applications.

Understanding and Using Them Effectively What happens in electronics is invisible to the naked eye. The instrument that allows to accurately visualize electrical signals, the one through which the effects of electronics become apparent to us, is the oscilloscope. Alas, when one first ventures into electronics, it is often without an oscilloscope. And one is left fumbling, both physically and mentally. Observing an electrical signal on a screen for the first time is a revelation. Nobody wishes to forgo that marvel again. There is no turning back. In electronics, if one wishes to progress with both enjoyment and understanding, an oscilloscope is essential. This marks the beginning of a period of questioning: how to choose one? And no sooner is that question answered than a whole string of others arises, which can be summed up in just one: how does one use the oscilloscope in such a way that what it displays truly reflects the reality of the signals? Rémy Mallard is a passionate communicator with a gift for making complex technical subjects understandable and engaging. In this book, he provides clear answers to essential questions about using an oscilloscope and offers a wealth of guidance to help readers explore and understand the electrical signals behind electronic systems. With his accessible style and practical insights, this book is a valuable tool for anyone eager to deepen their understanding of electronics.

The Elektor Laser Head transforms the Elektor Sand Clock into a clock that writes the time on glow-in-the-dark film instead of sand. In addition to displaying the time, it can also be used to create ephemeral drawings. The 5 mW laser pointer, with a wavelength of 405 nm, produces bright green drawings on the glow-in-the-dark film. For best results, use the kit in a dimly lit room. Warning: Never look directly into the laser beam! The kit includes all the necessary components, but soldering three wires is required. Note: This kit is also compatible with the original Arduino-based Sand Clock from 2017. For more details, see Elektor Magazine 1-2/2017 and Elektor Magazine 1-2/2018.
