Yes, indeed, thank you. No music is good. Your information is presented clearly and concisely. I wish I had a better memory. I'm glad I can watch it more than once. Thanks again, James. doug

I appreciate it, thanks!!

Glad you didn't resist sharing your emotions 😁👍🏼😜

What ? i was about to order the mug, that's bullshit , I would even go to the point of saying, it's fuckin Un Australian Unlike you, i won't survive, i mean .......without the mug....... I will have to rely on the charts in my Jaycar Catalogue :P it's just not the same

Internacional shipping now available

@@james_gatlin Hi james i just sent you 2 emails, Please check emails, thanks

Hey, I'm also a CS student and learning electronics stuff on the side. Have you considered doing Comp Engineering? Or are you sticking with CS?

Much appreciated!

Thanks!!

Thanks!!, good video ideas.

What type of Oscilloscope ?

@@martinkuliza I have a semi older Siglent SDS1102CML+ digital storage oscilloscope 100 MHz 1GS a/s Thank you!

​@@james_gatlin​ I have a semi older Siglent SDS1102CML+ digital storage oscilloscope 100 MHz 1GS a/s Thanks!

To my knowledge there are only two npn,pnp

Not only NPN and PNP, those are Bipolar Junction Transistors, however there are FETs transistors, and IGBTs transistors, theres much more to be said, potentially a future video, thanks for the suggestion.

Unfortunately no plan at the moment, it will be mostly diy and repair explanations from now on, but at the moment im bouncing around different trades, as opposed to focusing on just one.

Working on it, but i haven’t been able to find a supplier of good enough quality. Thanks!!!

So would I!👍

Buck converters should output a change in voltage as the Trimpot is turned, (make sure there is no load on the device when testing) its quite common for cheap trimpot wipers to get dislodged with to many turns, it may need to be replaced.

@@james_gatlin thanks for answering. I have a pack of 10 of them. 4 already presented this problem (no load while turning, just multimeter and power source), that's why I asked, because I keep turning them until I see a voltage change, but they seem to fail fairly easily,.so I was wondering if I was bricking them or if just low quality. 3 of them stop stepping down the voltage to and one didn't change voltage anymore. They are supposed to reset, after a full course right?

​@@fabio-franco Yes, it should either reach a limit, or do a full turn and reset.

Or maybe just pay the most attention.

@@james_gatlin impossible to measure. Amount of views is right there.

@@idonjohnson6999 You can't measure, but theoretically, someone has to be the person to have payed the most attention, regardless of the number of people.

@@james_gatlin yes but you can never know who that one is. Even if you are the one.

Whoever wrote or interpreted your procedure was a moron.

Not available, but it prints at the correct scale in any printer.

No haha, that’s the design of it.

@@james_gatlin LOL, Oh ok i do like your mug, i have a fetish for mugs, but i didn't want to buy it if it had a printing defect. anyway... So i'm happy to get your mug but someone in the comment section mentioned you don't ship to your Australia (Sydney) SAY IT AIN'T SO What's the deal with that, is that correct or not ? or... Are you just Mug Racist against aussies :P

I wish i could, its to expensive to ship. But im looking into my options.

@@james_gatlin HYPOTHETICAL QUESTION... Because i don't believe in "too much" i believe in "How much" so my question is if i was to cover the "too much for shipping" would you ship it to me ? also if you like i can provide you my email address if this needs to be done off the channel. The point is... I WANT THAT BLOODY MUG MATE LMFAO I actually want 2 of them What do we need to do to make this happen so i can be the first Aussie to get one LOL

Well make it happen, ill look into it, thanks for the comments, ill let you know if we could sort out shipping

Hi David, it’s the first link in the description of the video.

🤔…….. yes and no, you can divide the dissipation across many resistors, but that many resistors will heat up the neighboring resistors, have unpredictable impedance, and reduce the power capacity, though not entirely, perhaps in this example you’ll get a 35-40 watt capacity.

There's like a million answers to this. Sometimes you can use a resistor as a potential divider, since voltage is proportional to impedance. Sometimes you can use a resistor to limit current, for example to an LED. Here the maths would be based off of the maximum current rating of the LED and basic circuit laws. Sometimes you need resistors to bias transistors (apply certain voltages/currents to them consistently to keep them within certain operating conditions during normal operations). This is both for analogue circuits ergo amplification and more, or for digital circuits where the transistor is used for switching. Here you'd use a large set of transistor equations, depending on the type of transistor, to set either current or voltage or both. Impedance matching, RC circuits/oscillators. And there's so many more uses. Ultimately the specifics of this is something people spend years learning and even longer to specialise in specific areas. It's insanely complex and there's different formulas for every different field and application, so this is just a rough overview of a few examples.
