… The LT1634 does not require an output compensation capacitor, but is stable with capacitive loads. You will need to provide shrink tubing, or tape, over the soldered ends of the test pins. I wanted a milliohm tester circuit that could be used to measure resistance on printed circuit boards to track down shorted components. Below is the updated DC to DC charge pump circuit details: SCULLCOM HOBBY ELECTRONICS – MILLIVOLT METER Mk2 PARTS LIST Hey, sorry I have not yet investigated this theory, if it is possible I will research it and try to add the information in my website soon. The 4mm sockets available from Rapid, direct link below: or similar Digikey has them too, but only in minimum quantities of 1,000 pieces. I am a visual person and looking at at schematic is better than reading. As we will see, this cancels a number of error sources and is easy to implement on the Arduino. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261284812938?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT When a zero ohm resistance is connected to the test leads, the meter will move to the extreme left for zero ohms. Hope this helps. 1  x  4mm Insulated Test Socket Yellow (Rapid order code 17-2679) or similar Install the ten (or 12) 1 ohm resistors on the test leads about 8” (20CM) from the chassis. The resistors can be pigtailed together and each side soldered before placing on the test leads. Be sure that you place the negative side of the meter to the RH3 potentiometer. The current drain on the +9 is about 30ma. I used a six-pin GX-16-6 connector for the probes. Your email address will not be published. 1  x  2.1mm pin diameter DC power socket (Rapid order code 50-3276) or similar It is stable without input and output capacitors, offering high DC and AC impedance. If you had to readjust zero again, remove the short again and readjust the cal pot. The meter operates just opposite of an analog ohm meter. Circuit Cellar's 25th Anniversary Edition, By using our site, you acknowledge that you have read and understand our, Sign up for the Advertiser Notification Broadcast. The direction of the test current is alternated and measurements of Vx and Vr are made synchronously with the change in direction of the test current. There are only 8 resistors required, but when you’re on a tight budget and can get them all for the price of one…. The complete article appears in Circuit Cellar 314 (September 2016). An Arduino is used to control the synchronous rectification, read voltages Vx and Vr, and then compute and display the test resistor value. The SDA/SCL I2C connections are brought from the Arduino module to the protoboard with a short cable and connector since they are not on the regular 0.1” grid. An OLED module with an I2C interface is used for the display, although other options can be substituted with corresponding code changes. Remove the pins from the conductor and check the meter needle for full scale to the right. His earned a BSc and MSc in Electrical Engineering in his native Canada. Circuit Cellar's editorial team comprises professional engineers, technical editors, and digital media specialists. A technique called synchronous rectification (also known as a lock-in amplifier) is used to enhance accuracy. I have adjusted the current to 100mA. If it went to the right, of zero, adjust the zero pot counter-clockwise until it is on the zero. Advances in design guarantee 10µA operation and low temperature cycling hysteresis. At the highest gain, the meter resolution is approximately 75 µΩ/bit. Thanks Repeat this until shorting and removing the short requires no further adjustment. Turn the power on to the tester and adjust the zero pot until it registers zero ohms (on left side). Measurements are initiated with the push of the test switch to maximize battery life and minimize self-heating errors in the reference resistor. I used sockets for the transistor and ic, which make them easier to replace. D1 & D2 offer some over voltage protection. Until I realized, that I have been sent 4.7k resistors, labeled as 4.7Ohm. I looked at several designs and combined several ideas into this project. Also the values of the capacitors for the DC to DC charge pump circuit have been increased to 22μF. 1  x  100 Ω preset (BOURNS 3296P-1-101LF TRIMMER, 25 TURN 100R (Farnell Order Code 9353020) The number of resistors you choose depends upon the full scale reading your require. By the way, who drive your LCD display. Took me some time. Your email address will not be published. Hi, I like your website and the youtube channel very much and already built some stuff (i.e. This increases the test current to roughly 100 mA, which is still well within the 40 mA/pin and 200 mA/chip limits of the Arduino processor, and the 150 mA limit of the Pro Mini’s onboard voltage regulator. Required fields are marked *, Scullcom.uk all lefts reversed Theme by. If so, the panel-meter is ok. Solder the wires back to the PCB. The milliohm meter calculates the value of the resistor under test (Rx) by measuring the voltage across it and the voltage across a series-connected, known reference resistor (Rr) when driven by a test current. Previous: Using Microwave Oven Parts to build a Soldering Iron Heat Controller. There were several components that could have been the problem, but through resistance testing, I narrowed the problem down to two components. With shorted sense input you should be able to adjust the reading to zero, using the 100k trimmer. With only the ten 1 ohm resistors in parallel across the test leads, the meter will be at full scale to the right, indicating 0.1 ohm. I added C2 to slow down my meter movement. A PCB (using surface mount components) designed by one of my subscribers “pbreviceps” (Greg Christenson). At 1V per ohm output and 2V scale on a 3.5 digit meter, that should get down to 1mV = 1mOhm. and cal adj. If someone is interested, 2 are left over. Switch on the power to the tester and observe the meter. Again, be sure you have a hot iron and good solder flow on the resistor leads to the copper wires on the test leads. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PP3-9V-BATTERY-HOLDER-CLIP-CONNECTOR-IDEAL-FOR-GUITAR-EFFECTS-PEDAL-/262341198335?hash=item3d14c101ff:g:DVkAAOSw-itXsZc- I placed the test probes in each end and the meter pointer was halfway between zero and .01 and measured .005 ohms. High quality Alligator Kelvin Test gold plated clip 2 Colors Red + Black. With my meter being so large, I was able to use 12 resistors and .08 as full scale, .04 half scale, .02 as ¼ scale and .01 as 1/8 scale .
