how to convert an electric ?

Former Member over 9 years ago

hiii,

dear friends can anybody help me out .

my question is how can i convert an electric charge into 0's and 1's?

So many ways to interpret it : ) His question in the 'power and energy' section referring to 'electric charge' maybe means his utility bill for electricity : )

You need an electrometer amplifier such as this:

LMC6001 | Precision Amplifier | Operational Amplifier (Op Amp) | Description & parametrics

and an ADC.

im thinking of one project... my idea is to transfer battery charge of one cell into other . so i need to generate code .no one is ready to support me with this idea.every one are telling that it is impossible to do. can i go on search or should i drop this.

If you have just a simple switching source and want to determine transitions, you could use a comparitor. Here is one I use for a simple hall effect trigger. Left input is line in, right is digital out, left circle is max power input (diode clamping) right circle is digital voltage (5v or 3.3v depending on your system. Parts are half an LM2903, 4004 diodes, and something on the order of 3300 ohm resistors.

It isn't clear what you are asking. It sounds like you want to use one battery to charge another battery (very doable with a lot of "if"s and "but"s) but your talk about 1s and 0s and generating code is confusing.

First, sorry for the crude drawing, but I just had "paint" and a couple of minutes. Rereading what I wrote, power is the input line voltage maximum (12v automotive Vbat for the cases that I use), The resistors are just pull ups to assure switching. The output on the right is the 0 and 1 value you are looking for (I think).

It sounds like he wants to transfer charge from one battery to another by "converting" to ones and zeroes and then back again. However a ADC doesn't convert in that way. It simply senses (i.e. measures) the voltage on it's input and converts that measurement to a binary representation. I hope this helps.

Hi Pooja,

It depends upon the level of charge and the sensors you have to measure it.

For low levels, you might want to take a look at a 555 chip, which could accumulate charge on a capacitor and allow you to set a variable trigger to get a solid digital 0 or 1 indication.
