Old School Audio Preamp Project

Old School Audio Preamp Project

Finished wiring up this behemoth of a project yesterday and wanted to share some shots of the final product. It’s based on an Altec 1567a mixer but with some improvements. I added some FET buffered direct outputs on each channel, phase invert switches, output attenuation, and grid stoppers on the high impedance inputs.

Another kitset 6502

Another kitset 6502

Over the last few years I have designed a kit set computer called “Alius 6502”

The base design is a 1Mhz system, but I had had it run stable at 4Mhz.

Some people will see that it has used the KIM-1 as inspiration, a hex keypad and a seven segment display.

The design was to be aligned with what would have been available in 1979. The Kailh keys are modern, and the SDcard interface is modern.

32k of RAM, 16k of ROM, FAT32 support.

This is aimed at students, I have had a group of teenagers make the kit over two days.

The whole project is open source, hardware, software and documentation. Feel free to help me make it better.

Low Pins...

Low Pins...

The TPA broke inside of the connector, apparently the pin recessed after plugging in to the tester.

Tesla Coil Power Transfer Experiment

Fri, 09/20/2024 - 19:12

I put together a simple experiment showing how power is transferred between two Tesla Coils since I've never seen anybody recreate this experiment. This is a recreation of Nikola Tesla's famous experiment showing the practicality of transmitting power using 4 tuned coils.
The system can be scaled up or down, transmitting many watts or megawatts of power, depending on the coils involved.
This demonstrates that Tesla coils can transmit power using any suitable conductor and are not limited by the inverse square law, as long as there is a direct connection between the coils. The losses involved are more similar to a standard transmission line.

Seasonic PSU repair. Unusual failure point.

Seasonic PSU repair. Unusual failure point.

Was diagnosing a Seasonic SFX (mini ATX) PC power supply that blows up main fuse whenever the turn on signal was sent from motherboard. 5V standby works fine. Spend many hours probing around but could not find a short anywhere. Only once I used a larger 200w incandescent bulb in series in a dim bulb tester did I see a spark.

Turns out that once the PSU is signaled to turn on will the active PFC turn on. This boosts the dc voltage beyond 170V rectified which was enough voltage to generate a spark between the weak insulation of the PFC diode and the heatsink it was attached too. The damaged diode in the picture still tests fine with multimeter.

My first electronic project

My first electronic project

I made simple annoyatron and inspired by an youtube video I have hidden it in a walnut shell. I was so excited about it working, that I decided to imagine it as legitimate product. I can't wait to do another projects 😁
