Ook in deze tijd klinken buizenversterkers nog steeds fantastisch, misschien wel mooier dan ooit. Nu hebben we immers de beschikking over moderne materialen als ringkern uitgangstransformatoren, uiterst hoogwaardige weerstanden en condensatoren en vele soorten goed klinkend draad. Ook de moderne geluidsbronnen als de CD speler en de nieuwste hoogwaardige luidsprekers laten beter dan ooit horen hoe goed de buizenversterker weergeeft. Dit boek van Menno van der Veen kijkt niet alleen theoretisch naar buizenversterkers, maar vooral ook naar de ontwerpfase waarin besluiten moeten worden genomen over de doelen en eisen van de versterker. Hoe hangen deze samen met subjectieve en objectieve criteria? Welke schakelingen klinken vooral prachtig en waarom doen ze dat? Stel dat je een versterker gaat ontwikkelen en in de handel wilt brengen, tegen welke problemen loop je dan aan? En wat te zeggen van het belang en de betekenis van metingen? Zeggen ze nu iets of zeggen ze niets? Dankzij de grote rekenkracht van de computer kunnen we tegenwoordig dieper meten dan ooit. Hoe pas je deze technieken toe bij buizenversterkers? Tot nu toe waren metingen over frequentiebereik en vermogen en vervorming voldoende om een beeld van de eigenschappen van een versterker te geven. Maar zijn zulke metingen voldoende of moeten we gaan meten zoals ons oor waarneemt, met echte muzieksignalen in plaats van meettoontjes? De auteur schetst een toekomst waarbij meten aan de versterker de eigenschappen van ons horen moet volgen om tot nieuwe inzichten te komen. Dit boek is meer op de praktijk gericht dan op de theorie en heeft een beschouwend karakter, alsof de auteur van bovenaf naar de buizenversterker kijkt. Kenniselementen worden geïntegreerd en in een breed overzichtelijk kader geplaatst.

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!

De werking van veruit de meeste moderne elektronische apparaten is niet slechts op één enkel principe gebaseerd. Vaak staat een of andere computer (doorgaans een microcontroller) centraal. Uit deze fundamentele opzet – een computer die is ingebed in een bepaalde toepassingsschakeling – is de algemene benaming Embedded Systems voortgekomen. De meeste van deze systemen moeten vanuit het niets worden ontwikkeld, en daarbij komt het op elk detail aan. Vindingrijkheid en veelzijdigheid zijn dan een vereiste. De problemen die opgelost moeten worden, vormen niet zelden een ware uitdaging en betreffen niet alleen de analoge en digitale elektronica maar ook de systeemarchitectuur, programmering en programma-organisatie. De delen van deze reeks zijn geschreven voor iedereen – leerling, student of beginnend elektronicus – die zich terdege wil bekwamen in de professionele hardware- en systeemontwikkeling. En ze richten zich tot de allround-elektronicus die geen tijd heeft om specialist op een van de vele deelgebieden te worden maar die weet dat hij met standaard huis-, tuin- en keukenoplossingen niet ver komt. Ze bieden wat studenten en professionele elektronici nodig hebben: een opfrissing en verdieping van de basiskennis, een bron van inspiratie en een schat aan details en spitsvondigheden. Dit deel behandelt de theoretische principes en de basisschakelingen van digitale technieken: signalen, bits en binaire getallen propositielogica en Booleaanse algebra schakelalgebra het vereenvoudigen van schakelingen combinatorische en sequentiële schakelingen parameters halfgeleidertechnologieën signaalwegen geïntegreerde schakelingen impulsen kloksystemen initialisatie combinatorische basisschakelingen latches en flipflops registers adresseerbare geheugens sequentiële basisschakelingen

From Rubbing Amber to Swiping Glass "The story of electricity, told one connection at a time."Why does rubbing amber attract dust? How did we go from that curious effect to a world where screens respond to a single touch? And how did we get from mysterious sparks to tiny chips packed with billions of transistors? For centuries, electricity puzzled and fascinated those who encountered its curious effects—long before it even had a name. From the earliest observations of static charge to the complex electronics that shape our lives today, this book traces the gradual, and often surprising, story of how humanity came to understand and harness this powerful force. This book offers an engaging and accessible account of the people, ideas, and inventions that transformed electricity from a scientific curiosity into the foundation of our digital age. Along the way, you’ll meet a host of inquisitive minds—some famous, others less so—whose persistence and creativity helped unravel the mysteries of the natural world and gave rise to the technologies we now take for granted. Covering everything from Leyden jars and batteries to transistors, microcontrollers and the internet, this book presents a clear and enjoyable overview of electronics and its relatively short, yet rich, history. Whether you have a technical background or simply a curiosity about how things work, From Rubbing Amber to Swiping Glass offers a thoughtful look at how far we’ve come—and a gentle nudge to wonder what might come next.

ModbusRTU and ModbusTCP examples with the Arduino Uno and ESP8266 Introduction to PLC programming with OpenPLC, the first fully open source Programmable Logic Controller on the Raspberry Pi, and Modbus examples with Arduino Uno and ESP8266 PLC programming is very common in industry and home automation. This book describes how the Raspberry Pi 4 can be used as a Programmable Logic Controller. Before taking you into the programming, the author starts with the software installation on the Raspberry Pi and the PLC editor on the PC, followed by a description of the hardware. You'll then find interesting examples in the different programming languages complying with the IEC 61131-3 standard. This manual also explains in detail how to use the PLC editor and how to load and execute the programs on the Raspberry Pi. All IEC languages are explained with examples, starting with LD (Ladder Diagram) over ST (Structured Control Language) to SFC (Special Function Chart). All examples can be downloaded from the author's website. Networking gets thorough attention too. The Arduino Uno and the ESP8266 are programmed as ModbusRTU or ModbusTCP modules to get access to external peripherals, reading sensors and switching electrical loads. I/O circuits complying with the 24 V industry standard may also be of interest for the reader. The book ends with an overview of commands for ST and LD. After reading the book, the reader will be able to create his own controllers with the Raspberry Pi.
