You've made the Arduino suitable for industrial environments, hence the 24V circuitry as that's the standard. I don't see anything you've done that's not standard practice. Power supply circuit is standard. The relay circuit is standard. The opto couplers circuit is standard. So what have you done to make your Arduino non-stop for 8 years? I would have preferred it if you had framed the video differently. Eg. How to make an Arduino suitable for industrial environments
@@Shocker99 that's the point, making the board running for 8 years without stopping is actually and technically something that you could see mostly in industrial environment, the 8 years running is just an example and the machine's manufacturer decided to bring the same tasks performed by my humble Arduino based board to the next generation of them produced machines, the factory migrated to new version so they no longer needed those boards, I removed it from the obsolete machines and decided to make a video about this "success story" of this little Nano board 🙃 and yes, if they didn't decide to move to new version of the machines then these Arduino boards could stay up and running for an entire lifetime. 64 boards have been produced for that mission, now they could rest, waiting for the next mission.
@@DIYGUYChris You haven't made your Arduinos run non-stop for 8 years because they're already designed to run for several years out of the box. So you've done nothing to extend the life of the Arduino. Like i said, I would have preferred it if you had framed the video differently. Eg. How to make an Arduino suitable for industrial environments
'Clones' Arduino is an open source platform. There is no such thing as clones. Furthermore, the hardware is just off the shelf components that were around before the Arduino software was a thing.
@@Shocker99 yes they are called clones as they use partially the same Nano aspect, the non existing of hardware restrictions allow to these clone nano to exist, same board form factor but very low quality and low protection levels, probably this is visible at the first look when you compare a clone to an official Nano you will notice the absence of ressetable fuse, any short circuit will damage those clone boards. You can even compare the schematics, clones use different USB to UART convert (CH340) when the official goes with FTDI. Actually the point that I highlighted in the video is credibility of those random manufacturers, they truly could use poor quality passive components which is not suitable for long time running device compared to official Nano that comes with reliable and ensured products, price tell the difference 🙃
Many thanks for sharing so much knowledge about circuit protection in easy way.

I thought this was going to be about low power consumption but protection is important too

Great Job, I dream about doing electronics every day , But real life always gets in the way...

Excellent and informative video!

@@DIYGUYChris I strongly disagree because of what i originally said. You can claim that they're clones - but they're not.
Inspired by GreatScott? nice.
@@Shocker99 yes, kind of that 😉
