A lot of podcast platforms include a “hook” or short description along with the podcast name. However, don’t get too hung up on this. Make sure to include keywords that make it easier for people to find your podcast, but avoid keyword stuffing or you could be penalized. Choose...
To show you how to wire the relay, let’s build a temperature controlled relay circuit that will turn off a light bulb when the temperature of a thermistor reaches 150°F.Thermistorsare really useful with 5V relays. You can use them to turn off a large motor if gets too hot or turn o...
A transistor emitter follower can be used as an easy to implement tone stack buffer or effects loop buffer because they do not need a cathode heater.How Voltage Dividers and Pots (potentiometers) WorkWhen I first got into electronics I had a hard time understanding voltage dividers but they ...
First off, we'll use the Arduino's digital pin 8 to send a signal to the relay, through the other components. So hook up the pin 8 to a 1 kohm resistor. Why the resistor, because the transistor I'm using that will catch the signal from the pin no. 8 can't handle the full 5v...
Because if you get your topic wrong, you set yourself up to fail. Whatever topic you choose, be sure of these 3 things. Be passionate about the topic Know your topic and have a strong passion for it. Can you speak on this topic over 52 episodes? Can you help listeners to solve probl...
Adding electrical energy to a capacitor is called charging; releasing the energy from a capacitor is known as discharging.Photo: A small capacitor in a transistor radio circuit.A capacitor is a bit like a battery, but it has a different job to do. A battery uses chemicals to store ...
The integrated circuit sorts out which buttons are depressed, generates an appropriate command signal and passes it onto a transistor. The transistor amplifies the signal and activates the infrared light. The controller will keep sending the signal as long as buttons are depressed. In the next sect...

Solder the output pin on your regulator (+5v out) to the 5v in on the NES, and attach ground. Use a couple of alligator clips to hook it up to a TV. Plug in a cartridge (Make sure it's facing the right way!), add the battery, and try it out! If it doesn't work, don't...
crowd sourced framework approach to building robots in the 21st Century where robot's are imagined, designed and built to be social, to each have a name, to be community driven, connected, evolving, growing, improving over time, with each contribution and each iteration. ...
