    I have a need for resistive voltage dividers in my projects. I am trying to model the 5v output of your circuit with a 5v (high-current) breadboard source. It seems I need to put a resistor(s) in series to simulate the divider. So far, I am about to determine if a single series resister with the 5v supply will work. I plan to try certain loads, looking for, I hope, a single resistor that matches the divider's pulled down output v.

    • @Electronzap

      If you need 5V, then a 5 volt regular is usually your best bet. The 7805 is usually a good option. There's a lower power version called the the 78L05.

    A bit of a tangent, but I use a timer on my soldering iron so that it automatically turns off after an hour. It’s easy to get distracted, so I like knowing that I have a “fail safe” system. I’m going to try the ideas in this video (and in the comments) because my soldering iron gunks up frequently.

    • @Electronzap
      @Electronzap 9 днів тому

      That's a good idea. I unplugged the wrong cord recently and almost burned myself when enough time passed that the iron should have cooled. If I find myself doing a lot of soldering, I'll definitely get a soldering station.

  • @rorywquin
    @rorywquin 10 днів тому

    I like your videos and you know a lot more than about electronics than I do. But... I can solder-(very, very well and even SMD ) - I started building electronics kits back in the 60s. Tip tinning is about keeping the tip in good condition. The tip tinning mix is to recondition the tip. Tips usually get a bit cruddy (corroded and pitted) from all the the different fluxes etc. Clean old solder etc off (brass wool etc ), Dip the tip (into the treatment) and then it is good to go for several hours of soldering. No need to keep repeating.

    • @Electronzap
      @Electronzap 10 днів тому

      Most people solder better than I do lol. And that's pretty much exactly what I gathered from a UA-camr I watched recently who says he can keep using the same tip every day for over a year just by using tip tinner and brass wool every time he grabs the iron. Thanks for watching and commenting!

  • @notsurt
    @notsurt 10 днів тому

    I'd recommend being much more aggressive when using the brass wool. Really stab the tip in there and rub all sides hard against the brass to really remove the oxidation.

    • @Electronzap
      @Electronzap 10 днів тому

      I did that originally. I bought the brass wool and some flux a while ago and rubbed a number of stuff in addition to the wool aggressively against the tip between dips in flux. I finally found a youtuber that claims he uses the same tip every day for over a year just by applying tip tinner to it every time he pulls it out of the stand or station. I think I remember him doing lighter brass wool stabbings. He also said to ditch any oxidized tip that is giving you problems and start new. I already put in a new tip and solder is spreading on it pretty well, but I think that is more because it is new. I'm drenching it in tip tinnitus and solder before turning it off which I didn't use to do. I only used a wet sponge before as well.

    • @newmonengineering
      @newmonengineering 9 днів тому

      ​@Electronzap I have used the same tip for the past 5 years. But I don't use it every day, maybe once a week. I clean it with a copper wool pad from the kitchen. It it gets really bad I soak it in acetone for 3 minutes and then use a copper wire brush. I found that what eats the tips up is some of the acid fluxes. They will litterally eat the metal up. So be careful with especially the older ones. The newer ones are more mild. Also when I am done I brush it really well on the copper wool before I turn it off. Every time I turn it on, I let it heat up then scrub it on the copper and then apply some solder to the tip. That's the best advice I can give you. I would try to avoid sand paper, you can break off the coating and get to bare copper under it and then it won't work as good. At that point you have to replace the tip. A good tip will last a very long time if you keep it clean.

      Yeah, I seen youtubers do all kinds of things to grind off the oxidation. I tried a number of things including rubbing steel tools across it and being rougher with the brass wool after dipping it in flux. Now I'm trying to copy a guy that claims he can keep new tips from oxidizing for over a year when he uses them every day, but I wanted to test it on the oxidized tip first. Thanks for the comment!

    Fun fact: you can create a random signal generator by wiring 2 of those LEDs in series and taking the signal from the connection between them. Because of imperfections in real life materials, the LEDs flashes have slightly different timings and current draw, and as one of them draws current, it changes how the other behaves, and vice versa.

    • @Electronzap
      @Electronzap 15 днів тому

      When the switch is closed and the capacitor is charging, those 2 resistor are somewhat in parallel until the capacitor is fully charged charge. Technically resistors aren't truly in parallel unless the same voltage is across them and no other components are in series with one or the other. The capacitor and Base Resistor together are parallel to the low side voltage divider resistor while the switch is closed (on). Once the capacitor gets charged to the maximum voltage that can be applied to it, then no current will flow through the base to ground resistor but will keep flowing through the low side voltage divider resistor. Opening the switch (turning it off) will make the capacitor the only power source for the 2 resistors that it has headed to ground, until it is fully discharged. Ground is not part of the power for those 2 resistors while the capacitor is discharging, it's just a half way point between the resistors. So, the same current has to flow through one resistor, and then through the other resistor from one side of the capacitor, to the other. Resistors are only in parallel when the exact same voltage is directly across both of them, so that each one of them creates a separate current path through them, that can not be affected by the other one.

    To power a 5v led with a 9 volt battery what resistor should I use?

    I’m guessing there’s no way that this IC creates a delay like the other hex inverter ICs you’ve looked at, or am I missing something? Finding it hard to imagine a case where this would be useful but i’m pretty stupid so there’s that😂

    Thank you! I was looking all over the web for how to do this until I found your video, and now I can move on. I was looking to see how a capacitor stops the flow of current once it is filled.

    Wonderful instruction. Subscribed! Your notes that you use, are they your own prints or from a book?

    Can i use a 16 gauge wire terminal on a 22 gauge wire?

      I'm guessing it wouldn't work well, but I don't know for sure.

    Thanks for your wonderful videos. I have a quick question. Can a PIR be placed into this circuit that would trigger the servo?

      Thanks for watching! PIR can be used to control a circuit if you wire it right. Either using it to send a signal to an integrated circuit or transistor. I was thinking of making a PIR video.

    How much voltage are you providing to the cathode of the photodiode while keeping the 10kohm resistor in series?

    I lost my saved data, and had to revert back to 4 levels down again and was looking for gameplay on how to go through this mission with ease because the first time I kept dying and had 3 legendary ghouls on top of the glowing one to kill, and I was level 11 when I got through it when my deleted saved data was nowhere to be found I loathed having to repeat this again but thanks to your vid, it’s given me the courage to give it another go, so thank you 😃💫
