still stuck in the same spot.
anyone have any insight?

hm, cant seem to find the page where I saw the word discontinued.

anyway. what do you do to put the smd on a breadboard?

Cool,
Ill give the RMS converter a shot.

-edit-
seems LTC1966 is discontinued.

Brian,
Thanks for the great help thus far. Here is where I am at the moment.
Camera timecode out is wired to portc.2 and shield is connected to the circuits ground.
So far, I get the 'TC reader'...

i would, but as i mentioned in previous threads, i need for it to not interfere with the primary path. the hall effect devices require you to break the primary path and route it through the IC.

Loads will be anything that can be plugged into a 120v plug.
Most common will be lights, heaters, computers, other electronics, etc.

Ok,
It took me a while to grasp, but I think I got it now.
I had to bring up schematics to figure it out, but a resistor needs to be placed across the secondary leads of the CT. This was the magic...

The nice people over at CR magnets sent me over some samples of their 8010 current transformers to check out. I basically want to create a permanent amperage meter to be mounted to our main circuit...

Thanks brian
ill give it a stab and come back with a report ( and questions most likely)

anyone

from what I can see the circuit to be sensed needs to be cut and routed through Ip- and Ip+on the allegro devices.
I need something that does not disturb the circuit to be sensed.

Again I need a solution that is physically isolated from the source path. This is why I was looking at the current transformers.

Thanks Charles.

I looked at allegras site

Could you explain how you would physically mount these in my situation?...

I searched the subject and read up on a few forms. Now for some things a little more project specific.

I am looking to meter about 10 AC sources inside a mains panel, all 120v/20a max. I have...

nothin yet. Darn.

ah, c'mon. i know someone wants to dive into this.

mr e, mel, you know you want to.

Hey all.

We are working in a production studio and all of our cameras are locked together by timecode. I would like a little timecode display in the control room so the logger is able to write...

Hello all, its been a while.

I was wondering if anyone had any bookmarks for a wireless DMX project? Im looking for something with a 500' range that would have low susceptibility to interference....

Thanks for the reply Melanie. Your speaking in mA, so obviously this isnt the source of my problem. I am experiencing major power consumption, enough to dim headlights, etc.
The circuitry I speak of...

I was wondering if standard automotive SPST relays have any current limiting device build into them. In a standard scenario, I have a 12v lead feeding both inputs on the relay. on the trigger side I...

Hello once again. I am wondering if anyone has any circuit diagrams and code laying around for a 12v sealed lead acid solar charger.


cheers

Any resources for better calculating an inductor/capacitor match for the 2676?

From the specs I see its less than 1 amp rated.

there is a code example post by Melanie that addresses this as far as I remember. Do a quick search, youll find it.

Sorry for the OT.

Can anyone recommend good magazines related to prototyping, microcontrollers, electronics & such?

I checked out a sample issue of Nuts & Volts, and it was pretty cool, but I...
