The up side of under sampling

May 20, 2022 By David Herres Leave a Comment

A digital signal can be derived from the original time-varying, continuous analog signal by creating a sampled sequence of quantized values. It is intuitively evident that the fidelity and resolution of this quantized signal is based upon the number of samples taken per unit of time. Harry Nyquist published an early version, later further formalized […]

Measuring and using static electricity

May 12, 2022 By David Herres Leave a Comment

static electricity

Many moons ago, a future member of our editorial staff was playing with his very first multimeter. He was a farm kid. One of his first experiments was to put the negative lead of the meter on a ground rod and the positive lead on one of the metal bands used to reinforce the interlocking […]

Coaxial cable myths and misunderstandings

May 6, 2022 By David Herres Leave a Comment

coax myths

In this age of misinformation, you can add coaxial cable to the list of items for which it is easy to get steered wrong based on internet searches. Much of the bogus online commentary about coax relates to cable loss, cable impedance, and standing waves. Here are a few basics that may help sort the […]

The difference between the Faraday effect and Faraday’s law of induction

April 1, 2022 By David Herres Leave a Comment

faraday effect

Michael Faraday is probably best known for his law of induction. But he also discovered the Faraday Effect in 1845 which states that light and electromagnetism are related phenomena. Faraday asserted that, in fact, light is a form of electromagnetism, anticipating James Clerk Maxwell by nearly two decades. Faraday stated that when a solid or […]

Going parabolic: The difference between a Ronchi, Foucault, and a Caustic test

January 28, 2022 By David Herres Leave a Comment

optic surface tests

Amateur astronomers like to build their own telescopes, sometimes to the point of even grinding the objective mirrors. This is doable, but involves purchasing the mirror blank plus various grades of grinding abrasives, polishing compounds and specialized tools. The lens must have a precise parabolic profile. It takes special test instruments to figure out whether […]

The difference between LED and OLED displays

January 14, 2022 By David Herres Leave a Comment

OLED

Despite some initial difficulties, it is reasonable to think that OLED (organic light emitting diode) displays will replace LCDs, making possible low-power flexible screens relatively inexpensive to manufacture. OLEDs have several advantages. For one thing, they can be made onto a suitable substrate by means of silk screen-printing or an inkjet printer. Roll-to-roll vapor deposition […]
