Heute kaum heim gekommen vor lauter #Windkraft. Also daheim schnell die Drachen aus dem Keller geholt, die Kinder geschnappt und aufs Feld!
Die #EE-Ausbeute dürfte heute spitze sein: Die beiden #WKA drehen wie wild im Sonnenschein

Question to all the #ee or #electronics experts here: I have two TI chips here. the one in the background is from 1985 and has shiny legs. The one in the foreground I bought in the last 5 years new from Mouser. It came with those tarnished legs already from the factory. Why are the legs so tarnished? What coating does TI use that makes it so black looking. I understand that back in the 70s supposedly TI used a silver coating that turned black over the decades, but this is something different...?

Myself and #JesusAndMaryChain always have some feedback

In the UK, telecom companies #BT and #EE are now “one powerful partnership” that somehow couldn’t figure out that customers moving from one to the other might use the same email address for both their old BT ID and their new EE ID, such that their EE ID wouldn’t work to access free EE WiFi.

EE told me to check again in 30 days, and if I wanted access to an EE-branded hotspot in the meantime I could call for a free voucher.

"In today's video, we'll take a look at my grandfather's vintage HP-45 #calculator from 1973"—so he opens.

As an #EE who used #HP #RPN calculators for my whole career, that word, "grandfather", hit me hard.

In the early 1980s, when I was an #EE undergrad, we revered the #HP laboratory equipment: bench multimeters, oscilloscopes, logic analysers, automated sensors, RPN calculators, etc. But now....

#HP-15C RPN calculator, #Fluke 189 digital multimeter, and #Tektronix 2465 four-channel analogue oscilloscope will always be in my #EE heart.

Wer bei solcher Solarleistung, selbst unserer Mini-Anlage nicht in Verzückung gerät, muss ein Petrolhead sein. Im März praktisch kein Tag in den letzten Tagen, an dem die Batterie nicht geladen war und zur Autoarkie beigetragen hat. So macht Energiewende Spaß. Die Anlage der Größe kriegst du mittlerweile für 4 stellige Beträge. Die grüne Linie ist die Batterieladung.

So when you have a bunch of jellybean JFETs (2N5457), time to burn, and a handful of 1uF bipolar capacitors…
What to do..

I decided to build a simple amplifier Although many find JFETs aren’t quite as intuitive as a regular BJTs, they’re not THAT scary and they’re easily biased, using a megaohm sized resistor from the gate to ground.

To be able to do some more accurate calculations, I decided to measure the maximum drain current, IDSS, and the negative Gate-Source cut-off (pinch off) voltage, as they can vary significantly even between devices even from the same batch.

A fun evening in the lab

In #EE, "information" is entropy, something new, something surprising, something noteworthy—"news", that is.

But what news is the US media outlets barfing out, these days? Any organism with a brain volume greater than 1 mL can grasp that there is nothing newsworthy being reported. Such is the state of our social, political, and economical systems.
