Niemand twijfelt er aan dat buizenversterkers een opmerkelijk mooi geluid produceren. Ze klinken levendig, diep en doortekend; het klankbeeld is zeer aangenaam en dynamisch schijnen ze nagenoeg geen beperkingen te kennen.Via een systematisch theoretisch onderzoek gaat de auteur na waardoor deze fraaie eigenschappen ontstaan. Hij ontwikkelt nieuwe modellen voor versterkerbuizen en transformatoren, waardoor het mogelijk wordt om op voorhand, tijdens het ontwerp, al te bepalen wat de eigenschappen van de buizenversterker worden. De koppeling tussen eindbuizen en de uitgangstransformator wordt diepgaand gemodelleerd. Daarbij ontstaan nieuwe inzichten in een uitzonderlijk soort vervorming: de dynamische dempingsfactor vervorming (DDFD). Via rekenmodellen in het complexe domein worden vooral de eigenschappen in de grenzen van het hoorbare gebied (tussen 20 Hz en 20 kHz) onderzocht en ontstaan stabiliteitsvoorwaarden waar de versterker minstens aan moet voldoen. In versterkers wordt vaak tegenkoppeling toegepast, die uitgebreid wordt gemodelleerd en waarvan de gehoorsmatige gevolgen diepgaand worden besproken.Vervolgens wordt een fraaie selectie van bijzondere buizenversterkers besproken. Kenmerkend in dit boek is dat de auteur niet alleen technisch schrijft, maar verhalend laat zien dat het ontwikkelen van buizenversterkers ook ingrijpt in je dagelijkse leven; zelfs het nut van patenten wordt besproken. Samenvattend: nieuwe theorieën en oplossingen voor een perfecte audiokwaliteit met buizenversterkers. Zowel de zelfbouwer als diegene die kennis en inzicht wil verwerven zal dit boek met plezier ter hand nemen.

Secure, Modular, Open-Source and Self-Sufficient Ever since the Raspberry Pi was introduced, it has been used by enthusiasts to automate their homes. The Raspberry Pi is a powerful computer in a small package, with lots of interfacing options to control various devices. This book shows you how you can automate your home with a Raspberry Pi. You’ll learn how to use various wireless protocols for home automation, such as Bluetooth, 433.92 MHz radio waves, Z-Wave, and Zigbee. Soon you’ll automate your home with Python, Node-RED, and Home Assistant, and you’ll even be able to speak to your home automation system. All this is done securely, with a modular system, completely open-source, without relying on third-party services. You’re in control of your home, and no one else. At the end of this book, you can install and configure your Raspberry Pi as a highly flexible home automation gateway for protocols of your choice, and link various services with MQTT to make it your own system. This DIY (do it yourself) approach is a bit more laborious than just installing an off-the-shelf home automation system, but in the process, you can learn a lot, and in the end, you know exactly what’s running your house and how to tweak it. This is why you were interested in the Raspberry Pi in the first place, right? Turn your Raspberry Pi into a reliable gateway for various home automation protocols. Make your home automation setup reproducible with Docker Compose. Secure all your network communication with TLS. Create a video surveillance system for your home. Automate your home with Python, Node-RED, Home Assistant and AppDaemon. Securely access your home automation dashboard from remote locations. Use fully offline voice commands in your own language.

A Hands-on Guide to Crafting Your Own Power Plant The book you are about to read provides a step-by-step guide for building a renewable energy power plant at home. Our goal was to make the book as practical as possible. The material is intended for immediate application with a small amount of theory. Yet, the theory is important as a foundation that saves time and effort by disabusing the readers of potential misconceptions. Specifically, upon having a firm understanding of photovoltaic physics, you will not be inclined to fruitlessly search for 90% efficient solar panels! We want our readers to be the “doers”. If the book gets covered in grime and some pages become torn while you are building your power plant – this is the best compliment to us. The book covers solar and wind energy. Also, a curious power source based on manure is discussed as well, giving the doers an opportunity to further develop the manure fuel cell. It is important to note that there are many companies offering installation of complete solar solutions. Upon installing the panels, the system is not owned by the customer. Therefore, there is no freedom for experimentation and optimization. Also, none can beat the cost of a DIY solution as well as the ultimate satisfaction. All that is written here is a result of us building a renewable energy solution in Southern California. As the book was completed, the energy began flowing!

Electronic devices increasingly come with glued displays and batteries. And while the adhesive seal serves as a protection against dirt and water, it complicates the opening procedure of the device and hence its repair. The iOpener: Warm it through, unstick the glue! With the help of our iOpener, you can easily and quickly loosen adhesive without risking damage to your device due to overheating with a heat gun. Originally designed for opening Apple iPads, the iOpener is just as suitable for Samsung tablets, Sony smartphones, and devices from any other manufacturer who prefers adhesive over screws. How it works Heat the iOpener and place it on your device: Simply heat up the iOpener in the microwave or a pot of boiling water and position it on the edge of your device. The heat will soften the adhesive without damaging your gadget so you can insert an opening pick between the display and the case. Repeat this procedure for all glued areas, the iOpener is reusable any number of times. Use opening tools to remove adhesive residue: With the right tools, you’re now ready to open your device without hassle. The opening picks are sharp-edged enough to cut through the adhesive strips. Complete the opening procedure by prying up the case with an opening tool or lift your display with a suction cup or an iSclack. A must-have for electronic repairs The most annoying part of your repair is done, the rest will be almost a cinch. Whether you are a beginner or a professional, the iOpener should be part and parcel of every toolbox worthy of its name. Your advantages Loosen adhesive fastenings Uncomplicated to heat up in the microwave or boiling water Reusable Optionally available with opening tools Contains food grade glycerine Saves money and the planet Included iOpener Spudger iFixit Opening Tool 6x iFixit Opening Picks iFixit Battery Isolation Pick Plastic Cards Suction Cup Angled Tweezers Plastic bit driver with magnetic bit socket (4 mm), rubberized handle and swivel cap Precision bits (4 mm) Phillips #00 Flathead 2.5 mm
