The Most Iconic Oscilloscopes in Electronics History The 7000 Series was the most iconic family of oscilloscopes in the history of technology. Introduced in 1969 by Tektronix, the sector’s leader at the time, this remarkable line of instruments defined an era and became a benchmark for generations of engineers, researchers, and technicians. Throughout the 1970s and well beyond, 7000-Series oscilloscopes were a constant presence in laboratories, universities, and industrial facilities around the world. Their modular plug-in architecture, exceptional flexibility, and outstanding performance embodied the engineering philosophy that made Tektronix synonymous with accuracy, innovation, and reliability. This book offers an in-depth exploration of the 7000-Series oscilloscopes, combining historical context, technical analysis, and practical insight into their design and restoration. Conceived as a continuation of Tektronix Epic Oscilloscopes, this work expands the subject into two volumes: the first devoted to mainframes and core technologies, the second focused entirely on plug-ins.

De mens is van nature uitgerust met sensoren voor geluid, licht, geur, smaak en gevoel. Zintuigen die met elektronica slechts ten dele gekopieerd kunnen worden. Met de Elektor sensorkit kunnen we wel aardig in de buurt komen. Sensoren kunnen elektronica aansturen, maar ze kunnen ons ook van informatie voorzien. Daarom vormt niet alleen het meten van grootheden, maar ook het zichtbaar maken ervan via de Arduino seriële monitor een niet onbelangrijk deel van dit boek. De microprocessor ATtiny85 die de Arduino-taal begrijpt, maakt het experimenteren met sensoren gemakkelijk en goedkoop. We zullen niet snel een Arduino-kaartje vast solderen in een permanente opstelling. Bij een achtpotige ATtiny zal dat geen schuldgevoel opleveren. Dat neemt niet weg dat alle sketches gewoon op elk Arduino-board draaien met mogelijk hier en daar een aanpassing van pennummers omdat die kunnen verschillen met reguliere Arduino-boards. We zullen uitgebreid aandacht besteden aan het programmeren van de ATtiny. Veel schakelingen zijn bruikbaar in het natuurkundepracticum op school of voor bedrijfsmatige toepassingen. Maar de nadruk ligt toch wel op de (beginnende) elektronicahobbyist die zijn vrije tijd op een leuke maar vooral ook nuttige manier wil besteden. Want meer dan ooit tevoren heeft techniek de toekomst.

Maîtrise de la puce RP2040 avec plus de 60 projets à réaliser et à programmer Les cartes Raspberry Pi Pico et Pico W sont animées par un microcontrôleur ARM Cortex M0+ RP2040 à double coeur, rapide, efficace et peu coûteux, qui fonctionne jusqu'à 133 MHz et dispose de 264 Ko de SRAM et de 2 Mo de mémoire Flash. Outre une vaste mémoire, le Pico et le Pico W disposent de nombreuses broches GPIO et d'interfaces telles que CA/N, SPI, I²C, UART, MLI, de fonctions de temporisation, d'une interface de débogage matériel et d'un capteur de température interne. La carte Raspberry Pi Pico W comporte en plus une puce CYW43439 Bluetooth et Wi-Fi d'Infineon. Au moment de la rédaction de ce livre, le micrologiciel Bluetooth pour le Pico W n'était pas encore disponible. Le Wi-Fi à 2,4 GHz est toutefois entièrement pris en charge avec les protocoles 802.11b/g/n. Ce livre est une introduction à l'utilisation du Raspberry Pi Pico W avec le langage de programmation MicroPython. Les quelque soixante projets testés et opérationnels sont présentés à l'aide de l'environnement de développement intégré (EDI) Thonny. Les sujets abordés sont nombreux : Installation de MicroPython sur le Raspberry Pi Pico depuis un PC Interruptions de l'horloge et interruptions externes Convertisseur analogique-numérique (CA/N) Capteurs de température interne et externe Capteurs externes (pression, humidité, pouls, à ultrasons) Enregistrement de données MLI, UART, I²C et SPI Bluetooth, Wi-Fi et applis sur smarphone Convertisseur numérique-analogique (CN/A) Tous les projets ont été testés et éprouvés. Ils peuvent être mis en oeuvre sur le Raspberry Pi Pico ainsi que sur le Raspberry Pi Pico W. Toutefois les projets avec une liaison Wi-Fi ne fonctionnent que sur le Pico W. Une petite expérience en programmation et en électronique est nécessaire pour suivre les projets. De brèves descriptions, des schémas fonctionnels, des schémas détaillés du câblage des montages et des listings MicroPython complets sont fournis pour tous les projets.

A Combat Guide against E-waste and Throwawayism This book is for anyone who enjoys tinkering with analog and digital hardware electronics. Regardless of the sophistication of your workspace, only basic tools are required to achieve truly satisfying results. It is intended as a reference guide among other hardware repair publications you may have in your library. However, the book goes a step further than most other repair guides in addressing issues in the modern era of discarded electronics called e-waste. E-waste should be put to good use. Producing anything new requires not just precious resources and labor, but also energy to make and deliver it to global retail shelves. Your talents and love of electronics can be put to good use by rescuing and resurrecting at least selected units from this endless stream of e-waste. Examples include either restoring through repair, or salvaging reusable electronic and mechanical components for your next project. Smart tips are provided throughout the book, and much information is tabulated for easy reference. The book expands age-old repair and hacking techniques applied for repair on the workbench into clever methods and applications to achieve effective results with discarded or “non-servicable” electronic consumer products. The final chapter provides real-life examples using all of the previously discussed content in a summarized form for each example repair type.

This book discusses the basic components of any alarm system. All alarm systems have two basic functions. First, they monitor their environment looking for a change such as a door or window opening or someone moving about in the room. Second, they alert the legal owner or user to this change. The system described in this book uses a scanning type software to detect intruders. It behaves like a guard dog, pacing up and down the fence line on the lookout for either an intruder or a familiar person. If you have an alarm key, you can disarm the system and enter. With the scanning method, the software is easy to write and explain. It can scan eight alarm zones plus two special fire zones in about one second. You don’t have to be an electrical engineer to install an alarm system, just a decent carpenter, painter, and plasterer! Because this alarm system runs on 12 volts, you don’t have to be a licensed electrician either to install it. The alarm system presented here uses Python software on the Raspberry Pi combined with some elementary electronic circuits. The code described in the book, as well as CAD files and a bill of materials for the alarm panel, are available for free downloading. The book provides the reader with examples of typical configurations coming straight from the author‘s experience. After reviewing the hardware components typically used in common alarm systems, the author shows how to plan one yourself. To implement a modular alarm, no matter if it is for a single house or for a business or restaurant, the book shows how to skillfully combine a Raspberry Pi with small auxiliary electronic circuits. These are not installation instructions but food for thought that will enable readers to find a solution to their needs.
