ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance Meter) Using 74HC14

ESR is Equivalent Series Resistance. ESR is one of the characteristics that defines the performance of an electrolytic capacitor. It’s highly desirable to use Low ESR in capacitor as any ripple current through the capacitor causes the capacitor to heat up due to the resistive loses. By drying out the electrolyte at an ever increasing rate, the heating accelerates the […]

10-20V Regulated LED Lamp

Resistor and LM317L act as a current regulator set to 40 ma. Current will flow from the battery through one pair of LEDs, and then to the regulator, through the other pair of LEDs and finally back to the battery. Noise on the power supply lines filtered out by the capacitor. To make the current through them is roughly equivalent, […]
