From SRPP and Mu-Follower to OTL Designs Tube amplifiers suffer from distortion. Fortunately, circuits such as the SRPP amplifier, mu-follower, and beta-follower produce minimal distortion even at output voltages of 50 to 100 Vpeak. These designs are often published with errors. Without a sound understanding of the theory, it is easy to arrive at a flawed design. In the first section of this book, we investigate the origin of distortion, while in the second we investigate the design of and SRPP and a mu-follower. On the internet we can find the most exotic designs. Evaluating them teaches us that these designs often make matters worse rather than better. In the chapter on incorrect SRPPs and mu-followers, we sometimes see bizarre and misguided designs where using a simple single-triode amplifier would perform much better. Push-pull output stages also exist. A great number of them are examined, and their similarity to the SRPP is discussed. This is done especially with the help of the theory behind the OTL based on the ‘mother’ of all OTLs, the Philips HF303. Finally, attention is given to frequency characteristics and technical matters such as the supply voltage and the filament power supply. To illustrate these points, there are a few designs covering the subjects discussed. This book presents much new theory that has not been published before. It is often an eye-opener, showing that many things have a beautiful and unexpected simplicity.

La plupart des gens sont de plus en plus confrontés aux applications de l’intelligence artificielle (IA). Les classements de musique ou de vidéo, les systèmes de navigation, les conseils d'achat, etc. reposent sur des méthodes qui peuvent être attribuées à ce domaine. Le terme intelligence artificielle a été inventé en 1956 lors d’une conférence internationale connue sous le nom de Dartmouth Summer Research Project. Une approche fondamentale consistait à modéliser le fonctionnement du cerveau humain et à construire des systèmes informatiques avancés sur cette base. Bientôt, le fonctionnement de l’esprit humain devrait être clair. Le transférer sur une machine n’était considéré qu’une petite étape. Cette notion s'est avérée un peu trop optimiste. Néanmoins, les progrès de l’IA moderne, ou plutôt de sa sous-spécialité appelée Machine Learning (ML), ne peuvent plus être niés. Dans ce livre, plusieurs systèmes différents seront utilisés pour connaître plus en détail les méthodes d’apprentissage automatique. En plus du PC, le Raspberry Pi et le Maixduino démontreront leurs capacités dans les différents projets. Outre des applications telles que la reconnaissance d'objets et de visages, des systèmes pratiques tels que des détecteurs de bouteilles, des compteurs de personnes ou un « œil qui parle » seront également créés. Ce dernier est capable de décrire acoustiquement des objets ou des visages détectés automatiquement. Par exemple, si un véhicule se trouve dans le champ de vision de la caméra connectée, l'information « Je vois une voiture ! est émis via une parole générée électroniquement. De tels appareils sont des exemples très intéressants de la manière dont, par exemple, les personnes aveugles ou gravement malvoyantes peuvent également bénéficier des systèmes d’IA.

Understanding and Using Them Effectively What happens in electronics is invisible to the naked eye. The instrument that allows to accurately visualize electrical signals, the one through which the effects of electronics become apparent to us, is the oscilloscope. Alas, when one first ventures into electronics, it is often without an oscilloscope. And one is left fumbling, both physically and mentally. Observing an electrical signal on a screen for the first time is a revelation. Nobody wishes to forgo that marvel again. There is no turning back. In electronics, if one wishes to progress with both enjoyment and understanding, an oscilloscope is essential. This marks the beginning of a period of questioning: how to choose one? And no sooner is that question answered than a whole string of others arises, which can be summed up in just one: how does one use the oscilloscope in such a way that what it displays truly reflects the reality of the signals? Rémy Mallard is a passionate communicator with a gift for making complex technical subjects understandable and engaging. In this book, he provides clear answers to essential questions about using an oscilloscope and offers a wealth of guidance to help readers explore and understand the electrical signals behind electronic systems.

Le kit de test Super Servo Elektor permet le contrôle des servomoteurs et la mesure de leurs signaux. Il permet le test simultané de quatre servomoteurs. Le testeur est fourni en kit. Tous les composants nécessaires à l'assemblage du dispositif sont fournis dans le kit. Une expérience basique de soudure électronique est nécessaire pour réaliser l'assemblage du kit. Le microcontrôleur est préprogrammé. Le testeur Super Servo est doté de deux modes de fonctionnement: Control/Manual et Measure/Inputs : Dans le mode Control/Manual, le Testeur Super Servo délivre à ses sorties , les signaux de contrôle pour quatre servomoteurs, ou pour un contrôleur de vol ou un contrôleur de vitesse ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) pour moteur sans balai (brushless). Les signaux sont contrôlés par quatre potentiomètres. Dans le mode Measure/Inputs le Testeur Super Servo mesure les signaux des servomoteurs reliés à ses entrées. Ces signaux peuvent par exemple provenir d'un ESC, d'un contrôleur de vol, d'un récepteur ou de tout autre dispositif. Les signaux sont également dirigés vers ses sorties afin de contrôler les servomoteurs, l'ESC ou le contrôleur de vol. Les résultats sont visualisés sur l'écran.

Projects with Thonny-IDE, uPyCraft-IDE, and ESP32 The 'Python' programming language has enjoyed an enormous upswing in recent years. Not least, various single-board systems such as the Raspberry Pi have contributed to its popularity. But Python has also found widespread use in other fields, such as artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML). It is obvious, therefore, to use Python or the 'MicroPython' variant for use in SoCs (Systems on Chip) as well. Powerful controllers such as the ESP32 from Espressif Systems offer excellent performance as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionality at an affordable price. With these features, the Maker scene has been taken by storm. Compared to other controllers, the ESP32 has a significantly larger flash and SRAM memory, as well as a much higher CPU speed. Due to these characteristics, the chip is not only suitable for classic C applications, but also for programming with MicroPython. This book introduces the application of modern one-chip systems. In addition to the technical background, the focus is on MicroPython itself. After the introduction to the language, the programming skills learned are immediately put into practice. The individual projects are suitable for use in the laboratory as well as for everyday applications. So, in addition to the actual learning effect, the focus is also on the joy of building complete and useful devices. By using laboratory breadboards, circuits of all kinds can be realized with little effort, turning the testing and debugging of the 100% homebrew projects into an instructive pleasure. The various applications, such as weather stations, digital voltmeters, ultrasound range finders, RFID card readers or function generators, make the projects presented ideally suited for practical courses or subject and study work in the natural sciences, or in science and technology classes.
