You're legitimately the only RUclipsr I actually decided to follow because I enjoyed the way the video was done, I genuinely learnt a lot. Thank you. You're awesome.
This is so cool! thanks for your fun video...I will study it to see if I can build one myself to use on my Oscilloscope project on the Agon Light 2 microcomputer. I need to make sure I only use up to 3.3 volts as to not burn my Agon Light unit. Gracias
I'm new to electronics, and I want to learn how to make a variable frequency generator. Can you walk me through the process? I want to make a generator that can match the frequency of another in a different octave. What is pulse modulation, and what would such a device look like? Thanks for your time.
another thing : do I really change the frequency when I turn my potentiometer? Or i change only the period of time when the signal is low or high ( but isn't it the change of the frequency as well because we calculate the frequency for for example 1 sec no) ? Maybe I just got confused ...
What if I wanted to create mains voltage with a variable frequency? Should I just turn it into DC+ and DC- then use two of these to gate the DC signals into a variable frequency AC signal?
Is it possible to have multiple of these circuits and have an arduino controlling the frequency of each circuit? So that it would be possible to generate more than one squarewave from one microcontroller?
An O2 Sensor generates .1 volts - .9 volts pulse wave per second. Can this work as a substitute for an O2 Sensor? Parameters of Oxygen Sensor: The output voltage of the oxygen sensor varies from 0.1V to 0.9V with the frequency of 1 Hz.
Hey, what should I do different if I want to make the frequency generator range to be 300 MHz to 400 MHz? And if i wanted to try jamming my garage door opener would i wpuld need lile a speaker right? Lile what kind of things would I need?
Jamming a garage door signal, eh? Alright. First of all, I am unsure exactly what frequency they operate at, but if you knew that, you should operate around it as close as possible and with as much power as possible, otherwise the sensor will still interpret the correct signal. A dirt cheap 555 timer isn't going to get into the MHz range. You would need to find a crystal oscillator like the ones used in radios and run it through some high-pass amplifiers and out to an antenna (you can look up antenna designs to decide what jives with you). If you ask me, it's more trouble than it's worth.
if we calculate the frequensy with potentiometer we add the whole "50k ohms" ? I mean with potetionmeter whatever is its actual setup it would be like 1.44 / (1000 + 50 000 + 50 000) * 0.00001 always right? (with 10 uF capasitor of course)
This 555 circuit operates at a constant(ish) voltage except in extremely high ranges. If you want to control the voltage, you could put a buck converter on either the input or the output to vary the voltage.
L J I can help. The circuit you want needs two components: an oscillator (like the one I made here) and a power switch. Since you need high frequency, silicon is the way to go. MOSFETs or IGBTs are good choices and can be switched on and off by the oscillator. Solid state relays may also support your frequency- not sure though. Hopefully those avenues lead to a working induction heater for you. Good luck
@@BlueprintScience can you make one on a video and then send me it free plz I brought a $700 induction heater but haven't managed to get it going in 2 years I'd love to use a home made rotary phase converter to supply the 360 - 440 voltage and 50 hz pony motor 2 amps but need your help with the square wave part can you make one that function square wave dial able like yours please . I'm amature electronic at best show me a circuit and prove it can be done 50 hz upto 250 kHz max 360 v upto 440 v
Good morning Dayton, I really appreciate your replies. And your tutorials. I have a question; short of experimental purposes; in testing or trouble shooting a for instance; Stereo amplifier, could you show us the best way to trace a short circuit with a signal or wave form through a populated circuit board? I have built PWM's of different degrees along with other boards. I have test equipment like old school; Tektronix scope and a couple of wave Tek function gens and home built units as well. But my applicable use for testing and repairing TVs and stereo amplifier equipment I cannot find understandable videos on. I as before appreciate your knowledge and ability to simplify in explanation to us lower level intellectual individual's with, "LIBERTY and JUSTICE for ALL, Amen" Hallelujah,, Hallelujah Hallelujah hall-e-lujah ! Thanks
Well, as far as I know, there is not guaranteed way to detect a short circuit. If a multi-meter can't do it, my next choice would be a thermal camera to see which component heats up the most - those components are the problem child. I am only a little familiar with with power amplifiers, though I have used them on occasion. If your amps are having problems, I'd inject a test signal and follow the traces to see where the signal terminates, that is most likely the issue. If it's a power supply problem, bring up the voltage slowly and test for voltages.
Blueprint thanks,,, not the answer I was looking for, but thanks. I have no clue how to hook up my Wave Tek to any Stereo to trace. Nor from the Stereo,,out I will guess, to the CRT. I got an idea, but I don't want to break good equipment fixing broken stuff. So I thought since you did a video on a frequency generator build, you might want to do one on real world applications of use for it. So much for "THOUGHTING"! Lol!
I don’t care how many time I read the 555 DataSheets I just can’t seem to get it to throw sparks like yours. I thought maybe the P on mine stood for pyro. I
I was hoping to see you make electricity from the ambient sound of the world.. aka free energy.. sound ocsalates a pendulum and the pendulum creates electricity.. a self revolving door. Powered by it's own generation.
@@BlueprintScience,,ah the law,,, then why are men getting smarter while everything else is reducing.. due to the law,, shouldn't we be getting dumber?
Ah, this can not do those (unless if you used a capacitor to smooth the wave a lot). If you need those, there is a circuit that I know of that uses 2 op-amps (lm741) and is decently variable. Would you like the schematic?
harold vonhelms, dollars to donuts that camera is connected over wifi. You can track the signal to its source or jam it with a number of consumer models sold online
I would like to build a pemf mat. I have a huge following on tiktok and would be interested in promoting your work. Would you be interested in doing a build?
At my late age, I realize I only became a contract Constitution plumber because my teachers failed to create a desire of interest in me, so I did what my dad did,, I went to work at a under valued labor trade.
expose salt water to 13.56 MHz radio waves and light a match. Hydrogen separates from the water mixture and burns for as long as it's exposed to the frequency. why I wanted to built a generator.
By water electrolysis you would achieve the same result, but it won't burn alone. Maybe you want to save electrical energy ? Such an interesting experiment ! So salt water will start to boil I guess on this frequency ? Chemically the salt turns into something different ? What about the temperature of the water ? Is it warmer ? How safe is it to burn hydrogen? Share your experiment please if it's fine
You and the thorium fission reactor guy look and act alike.. you 2 can save the world.. why isn't there a super team of guys like you trying to give the world free energy.. or at least home generated power.. for home and cars.. at set of powerpacks..
could you build me a square wave generator that produces 500 watts and would run a 12 volt plasma light or even a 110 volt plasma light i could send you money for parts and pay you money for labor and shiping?????? oh and i need frequencyyyy to run from 100 hertz to a 100 mega hertz i would pay you whatever

SMH. I hate acronyms too! LOL.
P.S. the breadboard is actually really cheap. I purchased it wholesale over the internet.
can you make a variable frequency drive which can control both the frequency and voltage individually..??? means v/f= not constant
This 555 circuit operates at a constant(ish) voltage except in extremely high ranges. If you want to control the voltage, you could put a buck converter on either the input or the output to vary the voltage.
Can this circuit control a Tesla Coil?
what is the hertz range it emits?
