 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

This version of the inductance saturation tester follows on from ver2 published a few years ago Ver 2 Ver2 had a variable frequency square wave powering the inductor, its problem was it was possible to destroy the inductor if it ran for too long. So to Ver3, it sends out a single pulse or a train of pulses while the switch is pressed. Just about to send the gerbers away along with some other projects. I have a bunch of inductors to make for some PV charge controllers along with a 3 Phase charge controller.   The PCB fits on a 100x100mm board, and uses components I had on hand. If anyone wants the gerbers let me know.   Cheers Mike |

PCB's came back a couple of days ago, will get on to building one for testing soon as a couple of other projects are sorted. Mike |
