Elektor Digital Building a High-Tech Alarm System with Raspberry Pi (E-book)
This book discusses the basic components of any alarm system. All alarm systems have two basic functions. First, they monitor their environment looking for a change such as a door or window opening or someone moving about in the room. Second, they alert the legal owner or user to this change. The system described in this book uses a scanning type software to detect intruders. It behaves like a guard dog, pacing up and down the fence line on the lookout for either an intruder or a familiar person. If you have an alarm key, you can disarm the system and enter. With the scanning method, the software is easy to write and explain. It can scan eight alarm zones plus two special fire zones in about one second. You don’t have to be an electrical engineer to install an alarm system, just a decent carpenter, painter, and plasterer! Because this alarm system runs on 12 volts, you don’t have to be a licensed electrician either to install it. The alarm system presented here uses Python software on the Raspberry Pi combined with some elementary electronic circuits. The code described in the book, as well as CAD files and a bill of materials for the alarm panel, are available for free downloading. The book provides the reader with examples of typical configurations coming straight from the author‘s experience. After reviewing the hardware components typically used in common alarm systems, the author shows how to plan one yourself. To implement a modular alarm, no matter if it is for a single house or for a business or restaurant, the book shows how to skillfully combine a Raspberry Pi with small auxiliary electronic circuits. These are not installation instructions but food for thought that will enable readers to find a solution to their needs.

Elektor Digital Consumer Electronics Repair, Reuse and Recycling (E-book)
A Combat Guide against E-waste and Throwawayism This book is for anyone who enjoys tinkering with analog and digital hardware electronics. Regardless of the sophistication of your workspace, only basic tools are required to achieve truly satisfying results. It is intended as a reference guide among other hardware repair publications you may have in your library. However, the book goes a step further than most other repair guides in addressing issues in the modern era of discarded electronics called e-waste. E-waste should be put to good use. Producing anything new requires not just precious resources and labor, but also energy to make and deliver it to global retail shelves. Your talents and love of electronics can be put to good use by rescuing and resurrecting at least selected units from this endless stream of e-waste. Examples include either restoring through repair, or salvaging reusable electronic and mechanical components for your next project. Smart tips are provided throughout the book, and much information is tabulated for easy reference. The book expands age-old repair and hacking techniques applied for repair on the workbench into clever methods and applications to achieve effective results with discarded or “non-servicable” electronic consumer products. The final chapter provides real-life examples using all of the previously discussed content in a summarized form for each example repair type.

Elektor Digital E-Book: Designing Tube Amplifiers EN ANGLAIS
Ce livre se concentre davantage sur les aspects pratiques que sur la théorie, et il a un caractère contemplatif, comme si l'auteur regardait des amplificateurs d'en haut. Les éléments de connaissances sont intégrés et placés dans le contexte d’un large aperçu. Même aujourd’hui, les amplificateurs à tubes sonnent toujours bien, peut-être mieux que jamais. Cela est dû en partie au fait que nous avons désormais accès à des composants modernes tels que des transformateurs de sortie toroïdaux, des résistances et des condensateurs de très haute qualité et de nombreux types de fils dotés de bonnes propriétés acoustiques. Les sources audio modernes, telles que les lecteurs CD, et les derniers haut-parleurs haut de gamme nous permettent également d'apprécier à quel point les amplificateurs à tubes reproduisent la musique encore mieux qu'auparavant. Ce nouveau livre de Menno van der Veen examine les amplificateurs à tubes d'un point de vue plus que théorique. Il se concentre principalement sur la phase de conception, au cours de laquelle des décisions doivent être prises concernant le but et les exigences de l'amplificateur, et aborde les questions suivantes : Quel est le rapport entre ces aspects et des critères subjectifs et objectifs ? Quels circuits sonnent le mieux et pourquoi ? Si vous souhaitez développer et commercialiser un amplificateur, à quels problèmes devez-vous vous attendre ? Quelle est la signification et la signification des mesures ? Sont-ils encore significatifs ou ont-ils perdu de leur pertinence ? Grâce à l’énorme puissance de traitement des ordinateurs, nous pouvons désormais mesurer plus de détails que jamais. Comment ces nouvelles méthodes peuvent-elles être appliquées aux amplificateurs à tubes ? Auparavant, il suffisait de mesurer la gamme de fréquences, la puissance et la distorsion d'un amplificateur pour caractériser l'amplificateur. Ces mesures sont-elles encore suffisantes, ou devrions-nous commencer à mesurer en fonction de la façon dont nous entendons, en utilisant de vrais signaux musicaux au lieu des formes d'onde provenant de générateurs de signaux ? L'auteur esquisse un avenir où les mesures d'amplificateurs conformes à notre sens de l'ouïe nous permettront d'aboutir à de nouvelles connaissances. Ce livre se concentre davantage sur les aspects pratiques que sur la théorie, et il a un caractère contemplatif, comme si l'auteur regardait des amplificateurs d'en haut. Les éléments de connaissances sont intégrés et placés dans le contexte d’un large aperçu.

Elektor Digital Electric Guitar (2nd Edition) (E-book)
Secrets sonores et technologie Que serait la musique rock et pop d'aujourd'hui sans les guitares électriques et les basses ? Ces instruments donnent le ton depuis plus de soixante ans. Leur son sous-jacent est largement déterminé par leurs composants électriques. Mais comment fonctionnent-ils concrètement ? Presque personne n’est capable d’expliquer cela au vrai musicien sans formation technique. Ce livre répond à de nombreuses questions de manière simple et compréhensible. Pour le musicien intéressé (et les autres), ce livre dévoile, de manière simple et approfondie, ce qui était jusqu'à présent considéré comme des secrets de fabrication. L'examen explore les profondeurs de la guitare, y compris les micros et l'environnement électrique, afin que l'électronique de la guitare ne soit plus considérée comme hautement secrète. Avec quelques interventions habiles, de nombreux instruments peuvent être rendus plus polyvalents et mieux sonner – de la manière la plus rentable. L'auteur est un professionnel de l'électronique expérimenté et un musicien actif. Il a testé minutieusement tout ce qui est décrit ici, dans la pratique.
