Sound Secrets and Technology What would today’s rock and pop music be without electric lead and bass guitars? These instruments have been setting the tone for more than sixty years. Their underlying sound is determined largely by their electrical components. But, how do they actually work? Almost no one is able to explain this to the true musician with no technical background. This book answers many questions simply, in an easily-understandable manner. For the interested musician (and others), this book unveils, in a simple and well-grounded way, what have, until now, been regarded as manufacturer secrets. The examination explores deep within the guitar, including pickups and electrical environment, so that guitar electronics are no longer considered highly secret. With a few deft interventions, many instruments can be rendered more versatile and made to sound a lot better – in the most cost-effective manner. The author is an experienced electronics professional and active musician. He has thoroughly tested everything described here, in practice.

Einführung und praxisorientierte Grundlagen Die Elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit (EMV) hat einen zwiespältigen Ruf: Einerseits gilt sie als langweilig, manchmal als teures, wenn nicht gar unnötiges Übel, andererseits wird sie auch mystisch verklärt – als „Hightech-Voodoo“. In diesem Buch wird der Versuch unternommen, der EMV den Schrecken zu nehmen – durch methodisches Arbeiten und das richtige Verständnis der elektrotechnischen Grundlagen. Elektromagnetische Beeinflussungen unterliegen zwar stochastischen Prozessen, der Erfolg ist aber kein Zufall, sondern der Lohn systematischer Arbeit. EMV ist eine Frage der Produktqualität! Dieses Buch bietet einen Einstieg in das Thema EMV. Es stellt die oben genannten Zusammenhänge dar und gibt Elektronikentwicklern, Systemingenieuren sowie interessierten Hobbyelektronikern einen Überblick und ein Handbuch zum Thema EMV – natürlich, wie so oft, ohne Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit. Die Idee zu diesem Buch entstand bei der Erstellung von Vorlesungsskripten. Viele Beispiele und Erfahrungen aus der jahrelangen Praxis sind in dieses Buch eingeflossen.

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.

Verstehen und effektiv einsetzen Was in der Elektronik geschieht, ist mit bloßem Auge unsichtbar. Das Instrument, mit dem sich elektrische Signale präzise visualisieren lassen und die Effekte der Elektronik für uns sichtbar werden, ist das Oszilloskop. Leider wagt man sich beim Einstieg in die Elektronik oft ohne Oszilloskop vor. Man tappt dann im Dunkeln, sowohl praktisch als auch gedanklich. Die erste Beobachtung eines elektrischen Signals auf einem Bildschirm ist eine Offenbarung. Niemand möchte dieses Erlebnis danach noch einmal missen. Es gibt kein Zurück mehr. Wer in der Elektronik mit Freude und Verständnis vorankommen möchte, braucht unbedingt ein Oszilloskop. Dann stellt sich zunächst die Frage: Wie wählt man das richtige Oszilloskop aus? Und kaum ist diese Frage beantwortet, tauchen bereits die nächsten auf, die sich letztlich auf eine zentrale Frage reduzieren lassen: Wie nutzt man das Oszilloskop so, dass die Anzeige die Realität der Signale korrekt widerspiegelt? Rémy Mallard ist ein leidenschaftlicher Vermittler komplexer technischer Themen mit dem Talent, diese verständlich und fesselnd zu präsentieren. In diesem Buch beantwortet er wichtige Fragen zur Verwendung eines Oszilloskops und bietet zahlreiche Anleitungen, um die elektrischen Signale elektronischer Systeme zu erforschen und zu verstehen. Dank seines verständlichen Stils und seiner praktischen Einblicke ist dieses Buch ein wertvolles Werkzeug für alle, die ihr Elektronikwissen vertiefen möchten.

Tout sur les protocoles et leur mise en œuvre avec Arduino Initialement destiné aux véhicules routiers, le réseau CAN (« Controller Area Network ») et son successeur le réseau CAN FD (« Flexible Data ») ont vu leurs champs d’application s’élargir à de nouveaux domaines. L’industrie propose de nombreux modules microcontrôleurs dotés d’une interface CAN et/ou CAN FD. L’environnement de développement Arduino a démocratisé la programmation de ces modules et il existe des bibliothèques qui implémentent un pilote CAN et/ou un pilote CAN FD. La première partie dresse un rapide historique des réseaux CAN et CAN FD et expose la problématique des lignes de transmission en abordant succinctement leur théorie et présentant des résultats de simulation Spice. La deuxième partie est consacrée au réseau CAN, en détaillant successivement la fonction logique du réseau, les transcepteurs, les contrôleurs, la topologie la plus classique (le bus) et d’autres moins courantes, les répéteurs et les passerelles. Les aspects particuliers du protocole, tels que le bit stuffing, l’arbitrage, les trames d’erreur, la détection des erreurs sont exposés. La discussion de la fiabilité du protocole est illustrée par des exemples mettant en évidence ses faiblesses. La troisième partie présente le protocole CAN FD, ses deux variantes CAN FD ISO et CAN FD non ISO, leurs fiabilités, leurs faiblesses, mises en évidence par des exemples. Différents transcepteurs et contrôleurs CAN FD sont décrits. La quatrième partie est dédiée aux applications : comment utiliser les services d’un pilote, concevoir une messagerie, utiliser un analyseur logique. Deux exemples d’application terminent cette partie. Ce livre s’adresse aux amateurs et aux ingénieurs non spécialistes pour comprendre les possibilités qu’offre un réseau CAN et comment on le met en œuvre. Un enseignant trouvera des informations pour approfondir ses connaissances et pour concevoir des travaux pratiques. Une connaissance des microcontrôleurs, de leur programmation, de l’électronique numérique aidera à la lecture des schémas. La connaissance du langage C++ et du langage de simulation électronique Spice facilitera la compréhension des programmes qui sont décrits dans le livre. Tous les codes source sont disponibles sur le dépôt GitHub de l’auteur. Téléchargements GitHub

Learning Embedded Systems with STM32 Nucleo Boards Embedded programming has become more accessible than ever before. Development boards are inexpensive, software tools are easy to install, and the Arduino IDE provides a familiar environment for creating embedded applications. Combined with the STM32 Nucleo family of development boards, it offers an excellent platform for learning how modern microcontrollers interact with the physical world. This book introduces embedded programming using the Arduino environment on STM32 Nucleo boards. You will learn how a microcontroller continuously reads inputs, processes information, and controls outputs in a predictable real-time loop. Through practical examples, you will discover how to control LEDs, read switches and sensors, generate PWM signals, drive motors, and exchange data with other devices, all while becoming familiar with the capabilities of STM32 microcontrollers. Although the STM32 family includes devices with different performance levels, memory sizes, and peripheral sets, they all share the same architectural concepts. Digital and analog I/O, timers, interrupts, PWM, communication interfaces, and low-power operation are fundamental features found throughout the STM32 ecosystem. Understanding these building blocks will enable you to work confidently with a wide range of STM32 devices, from entry-level microcontrollers to more advanced applications. By focusing on practical programming techniques rather than hardware complexity, this book develops skills that remain useful well beyond the examples presented. Whether you are taking your first steps in embedded systems or expanding your experience with STM32 microcontrollers, you will gain a solid understanding of both the Arduino development environment and the principles that underpin embedded software design.

Projects with Thonny-IDE, uPyCraft-IDE, and ESP32 The 'Python' programming language has enjoyed an enormous upswing in recent years. Not least, various single-board systems such as the Raspberry Pi have contributed to its popularity. But Python has also found widespread use in other fields, such as artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML). It is obvious, therefore, to use Python or the 'MicroPython' variant for use in SoCs (Systems on Chip) as well. Powerful controllers such as the ESP32 from Espressif Systems offer excellent performance as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionality at an affordable price. With these features, the Maker scene has been taken by storm. Compared to other controllers, the ESP32 has a significantly larger flash and SRAM memory, as well as a much higher CPU speed. Due to these characteristics, the chip is not only suitable for classic C applications, but also for programming with MicroPython. This book introduces the application of modern one-chip systems. In addition to the technical background, the focus is on MicroPython itself. After the introduction to the language, the programming skills learned are immediately put into practice. The individual projects are suitable for use in the laboratory as well as for everyday applications. So, in addition to the actual learning effect, the focus is also on the joy of building complete and useful devices. By using laboratory breadboards, circuits of all kinds can be realized with little effort, turning the testing and debugging of the 100% homebrew projects into an instructive pleasure. The various applications, such as weather stations, digital voltmeters, ultrasound range finders, RFID card readers or function generators, make the projects presented ideally suited for practical courses or subject and study work in the natural sciences, or in science and technology classes.
