Introduction
When measuring low-noise circuits, it can become necessary to shield the circuit boards! Otherwise, nearby electric fields or electromagnetic radiation could affect the measurements.
A cheap way that many engineers use is to repurpose a...

I wanted to have a look at the Bode plotting with the ADALM1000, so I've chosen to start by looking at an all-pass filter circuit. The idea of an all-pass filter, one that passes all frequencies, seems slightly odd (is it really a 'filter'...
Just recently, LTSpice has become my new favorite EE tool. I use a Mac, and to my biggest surprise, the Mac version does not have the toolbar icon that I see in YouTube videos. As a result, I found myself looking at a window without knowing what to d...
Introduction
The ADALM1000 is a small module that acts like a combination of an oscilloscope, waveform generator, and SMU (source-measure unit). That gives enough capability to experiment with low-frequency circuits, to characterise many semiconducto...
The Nordic Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2) is a tool that measures power consumption by either providing power to the external board (source meter) or acting as an ampere meter. It measures current from 500 nA to 1 A and gives a detailed pictu...

I got this great solder fume extractor as a gift from element14, this was part of the "Wishlist - What do you need for Soldering?" giveaway.
This will help me to keep away all the bad stuff out of my lungs.
Also, I bought a used bench!, it is t...

Displaying graphics on an oscilloscope is an interesting exercise and I decided to do this as part of a waveform generator road test. It turned out to be quite a process, involving 9 different software programs so I thought I would make a separa...
The Keithley DMM6500 / DAQ6510 family supports Test Script Processing (TSP) scripts. They are an alternative for SCPI control. The underlying scripting language is LUA.In this post, I'm showing a TSP script, and a brief look at the TestScriptBui...
