Hailing Schematic

[G DANE]

Hope your still there, and doing fine. <br /><br />Once in an old post to 12footer you mentioned you could do a schematic for a DVA adapter. If you still have it, I would appreciate a copy very much, as I only have an ordinare digital multimeter. Miss all your good advice.

Re: Hailing Schematic

I'm also very interested in seeing it. <br /><br />A year or so ago I built one for myself. It's basically a peak detector with some stuff thrown on it. I started with this schematic:<br /> http://www.discovercircuits.com/PDF-FILES/peakdet1.pdf <br />Modifications were to make the left hand capacitor's value higher to suit the lower frequencies you expect. And a resistor divider on the front end to suit the voltages (I used 220k and 2.2k to form a 100:1). Finally I put a 7v zener between the input and ground for over voltage and reverse polarity protection.<br /><br />Since the circuit can only see positive pulses, you have to flip the input probes and test both ways. But that's hardly a limitation in practice. You could simply put a bridge rectifier on the front-end if you wanted.<br /><br />Good to see you around here again schematic! Still got the P/N for the solid state Chrysler regulator for Johnson/Evinrude generators?

Bump, I saw you just posted Schematic
