Whatever the methods or even then financial means you have to make your circuits work, the power supply should rank high if not Number One in your considerations. The design block simply called “power supply” is hugely underrated both in electronics creation and repair. Yet, the “PSU” has enormous diversity and comes in wildly differing guises like AC/DC, generator, battery (rechargeable or not), PV panel, benchtop, linear or switch-mode, to mention but a few. The output ranges are also staggering like nano-amps to kiloamps and the same for voltages.This special covers the features and design aspects of power supplies.ContentsBasics

Mit dem Elektor Arduino Nano Trainingsboard (MCCAB) eigene Projekte realisieren
Der Mikrocontroller ist das wohl faszinierendste Teilgebiet der Elektronik, denn aufgrund der Vielzahl von Funktionen, die er auf seinem Chip vereinigt, ist er für den Entwickler ein universelles Multi-Tool zur Realisierung seiner Projekte. Praktisch jedes Gerät des täglichen Gebrauchs wird heute von einem Mikrocontroller gesteuert. Für einen elektronischen Laien blieb es aufgrund der Komplexität bisher allerdings ein Wunschtraum, eigene Ideen mit einem Mikrocontroller zu realisieren. Das Arduino-Konzept hat den Einsatz von Mikrocontrollern weitgehend vereinfacht, sodass jetzt auch Laien eigene Elektronik-Ideen mit einem Mikrocontroller verwirklichen können.
Buch & Hardware im Bundle: 'Learning by Doing'
Dieses im Bundle mitgelieferte Buch (im großen A4-Format) zeigt, wie man auch ohne große Erfahrung in Elektronik und Programmiersprachen eigene Projekte mit einem Mikrocontroller realisieren kann. Es ist ein Mikrocontroller-Praxiskurs für Einsteiger, denn nach einem Überblick über die Interna des Mikrocontrollers und einer Einführung in die Programmiersprache C liegt der Schwerpunkt des Kurses auf den praktischen Übungen. Der Leser eignet sich die erforderlichen Kenntnisse durch 'Learning by Doing' an: in dem umfangreichen Praxisteil mit 12 Projekten und 46 Übungen wird das im vorderen Teil des Buches Gelernte mit vielen Beispielen unterlegt. Die Übungen sind dabei so aufgebaut, dass der Bearbeiter eine Aufgabenstellung erhält, die er mit seinem im Theorieteil des Buches aufgebauten Wissen löst. Für jede Übung gibt es anschließend eine ausführlich erklärte und kommentierte Musterlösung, die dem Bearbeiter bei Problemen weiterhilft und die er mit seiner eigenen Lösung vergleichen kann.
Arduino IDE
In der Arduino IDE, einer Software-Entwicklungsumgebung, die kostenlos auf den eigenen PC heruntergeladen werden kann und die das gesamte Softwarepaket enthält, das für ein eigenes Mikrocontroller-Projekt benötigt wird, schreibt der Bearbeiter mit dem Editor der IDE seine Programme („Apps“) in der Programmiersprache C. Der in die Arduino IDE integrierte Compiler übersetzt sie in die Bits und Bytes, die der Mikrocontroller versteht und die dann über ein USB-Kabel in den Speicher des Mikrocontrollers auf dem Elektor Arduino Nano Trainingsboard (MCCAB) geladen werden.
Externe Sensoren, Motoren oder Baugruppen abfragen oder steuern
Das Elektor Arduino Nano Trainingsboard (MCCAB) enthält neben einem Mikrocontrollermodul Arduino Nano alle für die Übungen benötigten Bauteile wie Leuchtdioden, Schalter, Taster, akustische Signalgeber usw. Auch externe Sensoren, Motoren oder Baugruppen können mit diesem Mikrocontroller-Übungssystem abgefragt oder gesteuert werden.

How to Draw a Circuit Diagram
Der simpel „Stromversorgung“ genannte Schaltungsteil wird sowohl bei der Entwicklung als auch bei der Reparatur von Elektronik enorm unterschätzt. Dabei ist die Vielfalt bei Netzteilen oder neudeutsch „PSU“ enorm. Es gibt sie in den unterschiedlichsten Ausführungen: mit Gleich- oder Wechselspannung, als Generator, Akku oder Batterie, als Solar-Panel, extern oder eingebaut, linear oder „geschaltet“ – um nur einige zu nennen. Auch die Leistungsbereiche sind enorm: von Nano-Ampere bis Kilo-Ampere – dasselbe gilt für Spannungen. Bei der konkreten Umsetzung kann man zwischen ICs oder diskreten Bauteilen, zwischen fertigem Gerät bzw. Modul oder der Realisation aus selbstverlöteten Bauteilen wählen.
Dieses Special deckt die wichtigsten Merkmale und Gestaltungsaspekte von Stromversorgungen ab.

Build Your Own Vintage Radio Broadcaster
The Elektor AM Transmitter Kit allows streaming audio to vintage AM radio receivers. Based on a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller module, the AM Transmitter can transmit on 32 frequencies in the AM band, from 500 kHz up to 1.6 MHz in 32 steps of approx. 35 kHz.
The frequency is selected with a potentiometer and shown on a 0.96" OLED display. A pushbutton allows toggles the transmitting mode between On and Off. The range of the transmitter depends on the antenna. The onboard antenna provides a range of a few centimeters, requiring the AM Transmitter to be placed close to or inside the radio. An external loop antenna (not included) can be connected to increase the range.
The Elektor AM Transmitter Kit comes as a kit of parts that you must solder to the board yourself.
Features
The board is compatible with a Hammond 1593N enclosure (not included).A 5 VDC power supply with micro-USB connector (e.g., an old phone charger) is needed to power the kit (not included). Current consumption is 100 mA.
The Arduino software (requiring Earle Philhower’s RP2040 Boards Package) for the Elektor AM Transmitter Kit plus more information is available at the Elektor Labs page of this project.
