Very interesting blog on testing the transformer. The software capability and maths functionality of the Picoscope look to be a good enhancement to the product.

Kind regards.

Hi Michael,

This is a really interesting experiment, and great to see that the ferrite worked so well across this entire range. It's really cool how the 'scope channels can be split off into separate windows like that, and the multiple maths channels simultaneously is impressive.

I will order some type N87 toroids for some experiments too, I had a look to see what I had, and most of the ferrites I had from Farnell were more suited for building chokes.

I ordered a TFT screen for the resistivity meter but it's been out of stock for ages - I think it arrives in a couple of weeks.
