Meten is voor een praktiserend elektronicus even vanzelfsprekend als ademhalen. Of het nu om het ontwikkelen van nieuwe schakelingen gaat, de controle van elektronische apparaten tijdens de productiefase of om het foutzoeken in defecte apparatuur: meetapparaten zijn het belangrijkste gereedschap en worden voortdurend gebruikt. 'Weet wat je meet', luidt een bekende uitspraak. En zo is het maar net: om zichzelf geen rad voor ogen te draaien moet de elektronicus weten wat hij doet, moet hij de nauwkeurigheid van zijn meetapparatuur en vooral de voor- en nadelen van de toegepaste meetmethode kennen. En hier steekt dit boek de lezer de helpende hand toe: uitgaand van theoretische beschouwingen en definities van de belangrijkste begrippen van de meettechniek begeleidt het de lezer bij de reis van eenvoudige wijzerinstrumenten via multimeter en oscilloscoop tot en met FFT-analyzers en gespecialiseerde meetapparaten zoals audio-analyzers, geluidsdrukmeters, apparaat- en installatietesters.

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.

Using the RFID Starter Kit An Arduino board has now become ‘the’ basic component in the maker community. No longer is an introduction to the world of microcontrollers the preserve of the expert. When it comes to expanding the capabilities of the basic Arduino board however, the developer is still largely on his own. If you really want to build some innovative projects it’s often necessary to get down to component level. This can present many beginners with major problems. That is exactly where this book begins. This book explains how a wide variety of practical projects can be built using items supplied in a single kit together with the Arduino board. This kit, called the 'RFID Starter Kit for Arduino' (SKU 17240) is not just limited to RFID applications but contains more than 30 components, devices and modules covering all areas of modern electronics. In addition to more simple components such as LEDs and resistors there are also complex and sophisticated modules that employ the latest technology such as: A humidity sensor A multicolor LED A large LED matrix with 64 points of light A 4-character 7-segment LED display An infra red remote-controller unit A complete LC-display module A servo A stepper motor and controller module A complete RFID reader module and security tag On top of that you will get to build precise digital thermometers, hygrometers, exposure meters and various alarm systems. There are also practical devices and applications such as a fully automatic rain sensor, a sound-controlled remote control system, a multifunctional weather station and so much more. All of the projects described can be built using the components supplied in the Elektor kit.

Recently, the development of a tiny chip called the ESP8266 has made it possible to interface any type of microcontroller to a Wi-Fi AP. The ESP8266 is a low-cost tiny Wi-Fi chip having fully built-in TCP/IP stack and a 32-bit microcontroller unit. This chip, produced by Shanghai based Chinese manufacturer Espressif System, is IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi compatible with on-chip program and data memory, and general purpose input-output ports. Several manufacturers have incorporated the ESP8266 chip in their hardware products (e.g. ESP-xx, NodeMCU etc) and offer these products as a means of connecting a microcontroller system such as the Android, PIC microcontroller or others to a Wi-Fi. The ESP8266 is a low-power chip and costs only a few Dollars. ESP8266 and MicroPython – Coding Cool Stuff is an introduction to the ESP8266 chip and describes the features of this chip and shows how various firmware and programming languages such as the MicroPython can be uploaded to the chip. The main aim of the book is to teach the readers how to use the MicroPython programming language on ESP8266 based hardware, especially on the NodeMCU. Several interesting and useful projects are given in the e-book (pdf) to show how to use the MicroPython in NodeMCU type ESP8266 hardware: Project “What shall I wear today?”: You will be developing a weather information system using a NodeMCU development board together with a Text-to-Speech processor module. Project “The Temperature and Humidity on the Cloud”: You will be developing a system that will get the ambient temperature and humidity using a sensor and then store this data on the cloud so that it can be accessed from anywhere. Project “Remote Web Based Control”: You will be developing a system that will remotely control two LEDs connected to a NodeMCU development board using an HTTP Web Server application.

Beginselen van het programmeren Eenvoudige projecten voor beginners Interface- en hardware-uitbreidingen Complexe projecten voor gevorderden Twee zaken hebben in belangrijke mate bijgedragen aan het grote succes van het Arduinoplatform. De eerste is de complete, gebruiksklare processorprint die de kennismaking met dehardware aanzienlijk vergemakkelijkt. En de tweede is de gratis verkrijgbare programmeerinterface, die zonder ingewikkelde installatieprocedures meteen gebruikt kan worden. Eenvoudige projecten voor beginners garanderen snelle resultaten. Het is niet nodig eerst ingewikkelde parameters (processortype of interface-instellingen) te selecteren -- de eerste voorbeeldprogramma's kunnen al na enkele minuten in de Arduino worden geladen en uitgeprobeerd. De Arduino-gebruiker wordt geholpen door een groot aantal software-bibliotheken -- maar deze nog dagelijks groeiende schat aan libraries vormt juist voor de beginner een luxe-probleem: na de eerste eenvoudige voorbeelden is het niet altijd even duidelijk hoe het nu verder moet. Bij de in het internet circulerende projecten ontbreekt het in veel gevallen aan gedetailleerd commentaar en uitleg. Er is geen duidelijk herkenbare leidraad, en eigenlijk is dat ook niet zo vreemd omdat de toepassingen door verschillende mensen voor verschillende doeleinden zijn ontwikkeld. Dat is waar dit boek te hulp komt. Projecten worden op een systematische manier gepresenteerd, waarbij elk project een ander onderwerp belicht. De aanpak is praktijkgericht, maar de noodzakelijke theoretische achtergrond wordt daarbij niet uit het oog verloren. Belangrijke onderwerpen zoals A/D-omzetting, timers en interrupts worden steeds in praktische projecten 'ingebed'. In het boek komen zaken als looplicht-effecten, praktisch bruikbare voltmeters, nauwkeurige digitale thermometers, allerlei soorten klokken, reactietesters en zelfs een muisgestuurde robotkraan aan de orde. En al lezende en doende krijgt de lezer een gedegen inzicht in de achterliggende controllertechnieken.
