Practical Introduction to 3D Modeling from Enclosure to Front Panel Embedding a vintage component, creating a professional looking home for a circuit board, or even designing a complex apparatus complete with a chassis – these and many other challenges turn into a stimulating pleasure with FreeCAD. Once you have internalized the basic processes, there are virtually no limits to your imagination. Starting to use a new software is never straightforward – especially with a tool as versatile as FreeCAD. Manageable, but at the same time easily usable individual components provide the starting point in this book. Putting these components together later results in assemblies. In the FreeCAD universe, a workable trajectory is demonstrated. The described procedure is illustrative so the examples are easily applied to custom tasks. The devices were made by the author and illustrated with photos. Creating a 3D design is requiring some effort but the initial investment pays off soon. Besides the impressive spatial representation of the projects, the extracted drawings yield a solid base for documentation and production. Extended FreeCAD capabilities like the unfolding of sheet metal parts enormously add to efficiency and pushes models forward into practical assembly. Soon you will definitely not want to do without FreeCAD!

Le monde de l'électronique est à la fois vaste et… tout petit ! Voici un livre qui confirme ces deux constatations contradictoires. En effet, en électronique, tout touche à tout, d'une manière ou d'une autre. Le plus petit détail peut avoir les plus grandes conséquences, et pas toujours celles que l'on attendrait. L'objectif de l'auteur de cette série d'articles autonomes intitulée hors-circuits, réunis ici en un livre, n'est pas de vous tenir par la main. Robert Lacoste, électronicien professionnel de haut-niveau, vous donne des pistes pour comprendre ce qui paraît mystérieux. Il vous guide juste assez pour vous permettre ensuite de progresser tout seul. Avec lui, non seulement vous repousserez vos propres limites, mais saurez aussi détecter celles du matériel et du logiciel que vous utilisez. En vous invitant à repasser par les notions de physique de base, il vous permettra de séparer les véritables progrès techniques des laïus commerciaux. Les bases, ça peut mener loin D'où vient la sensibilité d'un récepteur d'ondes radio ? Pourquoi le téléchargement d'une vidéo sur votre portable est-il beaucoup plus lent à la campagne qu'en centre-ville ? Si pour vous la réponse technique à des questions comme celles-ci (et bien d'autres que vous n'osez peut-être même pas vous poser) n'est pas évidente, ce livre vous aidera à y voir plus clair. Oui, on peut être à l'aise avec les microcontrôleurs, mais dérouté par le comportement d'un simple transistor. Vous sentez-vous concerné par de telles interrogations ? Ce livre est donc pour vous. Sans aucune formule mathématique qui ne soit pas à la portée d'un lycéen, il balaye tout le champ de l'électronique, depuis l'analogique jusqu'au traitement numérique du signal en passant par le domaine si redouté des hautes-fréquences. La théorie ne s'y éloigne jamais beaucoup de la loi d'Ohm ! Avec des mots simples, l'auteur explique comment ça marche, pourquoi parfois ça ne marche pas comme on veut, et comment mieux utiliser différentes techniques dans vos propres projets pour que ça marche. Liste des sujets abordés : adaptation d'impédance : qu'est-ce-que c'est ? petite introduction aux microrubans jouons avec la réflectométrie temporelle circuits imprimés : éviter les bourdes en HF et avec les fréquences élevées le marquage CE pour les béotiens le quartz magie de la PLL VCO & PLL : pour obtenir des fréquences à la fois précises, stables et variables synthèse numérique directe : une introduction comprendre l'amplificateur à transistor : sexagénaire vaillant ampli de classe A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H : quesako ? le filtrage numérique sans stress : les filtres FIR le filtrage numérique sans stress : les filtres CIC le filtrage numérique sans stress : les filtres IIR l'ABC des CA/N DNL, INL, SNR, SINAD, ENOB, SFDR et consorts l'ABC des CA/N sigma-delta, quésaco ? bruit et sensibilité des récepteurs échange débit contre portée

As demand for solar panel installation has risen sharply, especially for installations larger than balcony power plants, the order books of solar companies are full. If you ask for a quote today, you may have to wait a while, if your request isn't simply postponed indefinitely. Another consequence of the solar boom is that some companies are charging very high prices for installations. Yet there is an obvious and radical solution to the problem of excessive prices: Do it yourself, as the English say. The price of materials is currently affordable, and it's the ideal time for those who do the work themselves. They couldn't save more. Add to this the satisfaction of doing something useful, both economically and ecologically, and the pleasure of building yourself. In this special issue, you'll find a wide selection of Elektor assemblies, from solar panel controllers to solar water heaters and solar panel orientation systems. The issue also contains practical information on solar panel installation and the technology behind them. Finally, there are a number of articles on the subject of balcony power plants, from how to install them to how to connect them to the Internet...

Mastering the Language and the Development Platform Many people would like to learn Java but getting started is not easy since programming with Java requires at least two things: mastering the programming language and the development environment. With the help of many examples, this book shows how the language is structured. In addition, it employs the Eclipse development environment as an example of a powerful tool to teach developing Java programs. In Basics, the first part of the book, you acquire your Java and Eclipse basic knowledge. This part lays the programming foundations, gives you an overview of Java technology, and shows you what is special about object-oriented programming. In the second part called Java Language, everything revolves around the subtleties of the Java language and this is where the first small Java applications are created, aided by a fine blend of the knowledge part and practical exercises. Java Technology is both the name and the focus of the third part which also introduces you to the rules to observe when programming, what class libraries are and what advantages they have. In addition, you will learn how to test programs, what algorithms are, and how to program them. The fourth part, Java Projects, enables you to apply all the previous elements in an application with a graphical user interface. The project shows how to develop a larger application piece by piece with the Eclipse development environment. The Appendix concludes with a section on frequent errors that can occur when working with Eclipse, and a Glossary.

The SQ series of handsfree PCBite probes from Sensepeek are insulated, come with included color-coded cable holders and have a lower point of gravity making them even more stable compared with the original SP series of probes. All the loved features of handsfree measurement, exchangeable fine pitch spring tipped test needle and the minimalistic design is maintained to make traditional sized and handheld probes obsolete. Features All handsfree probes from Sensepeek makes instant measurements or long triggering sessions a breeze. No more soldering wires to connect your probe or complicated tools to setup, just positioning the probe needle on any test point or component in the signal path and release. Saves time and frustration during development, verification and repairs. The minimalist design and the spring-loaded test needle makes it possible to simultaneously measure on fine pitch components and nearby signals. Both length and weight of the SQ probes are perfectly balanced to be used with PCBite PCB holders and base plate which is a must for handsfree function. The probe holder comes with a powerful magnet in the base, as for all PCBite probes and holders which makes the probe easy to place and reposition. The SQ series of probes can be used handheld without the probe holder as they have an insulated grip but their full potential is used when measuring handsfree.

ÉLECTRICITÉ PHOTOVOLTAÏQUE = ÉLECTRICITÉ GRATUITE Nous sommes désormais plus qu'heureux de poursuivre nos recherches sur notre propre autonomie et de veiller à ce que notre production électrique photovoltaïque soit appropriée ! D'abord on en rêve, puis vient l'étape du calcul : comparer le coût du kilowattheure d'origine du nucléaire (environnement à partir de centimes d'euro) et le calcul du kilowattheure d'origine photovoltaïque (l'environnement de 22 centimes de l'euro*), et nous saurons où en sont nos motivations d'écocitoyens. Gérard Guihéneuf, l'auteur de ce nouveau livre, pense qu'il ne faut pas se contenter d'aligner chiffres et idées. La nouvelle approche du processus de création d'entreprise se base sur la compréhension et les dimensions des installations des bâtiments domestiques dans le domaine public en 2009 et sur l'actualité des techniques et pratiques de réponse aux questions qui se posent lors de l'électrification des le site isolé ! La conception de projets simples, comme un contexte domestique, et d'un commentaire électrique standard, comme un système d'énergie photovoltaïque, trois emplacements réguliers : un abri dans le jardin, un garage et un mobil-home. L'économie est spectaculaire lorsqu'il s'agit de composants électroniques et d'assemblages de certains constituants essentiels, car les régulateurs de charge, les onduleurs et les panneaux solaires ne suffisent pas à l'entretien autonome du site. Si vous souhaitez en savoir plus sur l'électrification professionnelle de votre chantier, vous pouvez en savoir plus sur les dimensions des éléments constitutifs sans sacrifier l'efficacité ! Vous pouvez également utiliser la copie du Gerber et du Sprint Layout pour les circuits imprimés de la livrée. *avec les batteries en cours de reconditionnement lors de la panne photovoltaïque en cours et dans les vingt-cinq
