Re: LEM LTSR 15-NP and more

Hello, The output depends on how you have connected the pins - to select the current range of the device There is a formula for the output they give 2.5 Volts out at ZERO Current Example ip = 250 Amp (This is the overload rating of the device) ipn current messuring range (see Nominal RMS Current sel...

Hello

Elektor no longer list this book, after a quick google search i found one on amazon and a few other sites. Some where stupid prices

Re: Interfacing the Pic16F877A with the MCP3201 12-Bit ADC.

Hi Abhi the MCP3201 is an analogue to digital convertor that measurer's DC Voltages. Are you looking to read the 4 - 20 mA current ? in this case you will need to convert the current to a voltage first. you have asked this question in Flowcode V2 & V3 forums when you are active in the V8 forums is t...

Re: (re)programming a PIC over USB

Hi Lariekoek, something else you can look at to get a bit more from your battery. A DCDC Setup convertor this has a minimum voltage of 1.5 V Be Sure to check that if you use this you don't go bellow the minimum recommended volts per cell for your battery see Example 8.2.1 & 2 on page 10 https://uk.r...

Re: (re)programming a PIC over USB

Hi Lariekoek, But that may be because I'm testing with Li-Ion battery's that are over 8yrs old. Not sure what batteries you are using, but some of the flange pack items that RS sell have a shelf life of 6 Months before requiring a recharge. They also have a 2 - 3 year life or 500 cycles which occurs...
