    So simple! Love little tidbits like this.

    🤯 Simple but brilliant. Didn't know this could be done.

    It is working as a photocell. Very cool.

    Must admit I would probably just stuff the diode in the scope if my phone wasn't around, but it's nice to see people doing things properly....cheers.

    Convenient for viewing the waveform. I used to troubleshoot fiber withy phone in a pinch but i like this method. Clean.

  • @NiHaoMike64
    @NiHaoMike64 4 месяца назад

    A parallel resistor to discharge the capacitance of the diode will greatly improve the response time. Try different values to find out what works best.

    @jutukka 4 месяца назад +1

    If the exact waveforms are not the thing you need to observe, but for example just to check if the remote or battery is totally dead, it is luckily very easy to use digital camera or mobilephone camera which shows if the led is flickering or not.

    I looked through all my stuff, not one IR photo diode 😢. Cool project and yes, I'll build one.

  • @hoggif
    @hoggif 4 месяца назад

    That's a nice idea. Much better than clipping on in oscilloscope probe with a resistor. I'm assuming you're using internal 50ohm termination?
    On the other hand, diode is easy to find on assortment cabinet where the one tester I'd need rarely is sure to be misplaced somewhere not to be found :D

  • @terrynicklin417
    @terrynicklin417 4 месяца назад

    Great idea thanks. I wonder how practical it would be to create a similar device for testing car remotes - sensing a few hundred MHz? It would need a bit of active circuitry I guess?

    • @JonnyFix
      @JonnyFix 4 месяца назад

      Yep although you can get usable readings by connecting the earth lead of a probe to the probe tip, x1, 2mV and 5us/div and lay the loop against the remote. Now though I just tune in an SDR receiver and make techno music 😄

  • @TheEmbeddedHobbyist
    @TheEmbeddedHobbyist 4 месяца назад

    i think i would have connected a cap by one lead just to have a cap in the video. Plus it would be a good talking point as to what it does in the circuit. :-)

      sometimes the pulse is very week and you are not able to see it.
