Microcontrollers in Ham Radio Projects by KJ6VU Dayton 2012.mp4

Using Microcontrollers in Ham Radio Projects – a presentation by George Zafiropoulos, KJ6VU at Dayton 2012. Introduction to microcontroller hardware, software development tools and featuring several ham radio project examples.

http://www.kcomm.biz Here are some pictures on an Icom IC-7000 that was recently installed in a Toyota Avalon..

The head was remoted on the dash using a Yaesu MMB-62 mobile mounting bracket..The radio was set under the front passenger seat..We used a Jetstream JPST10 for an external speaker..The speaker was mounted in front of the passenger front seat..

The antennas were Workman mono band sticks..The support for the antennas is a Tram NMO trunk lid mount, which used a NMO to 3/8″ adapter..

The system was checked out & everything worked fine..The customer was happy..

Thanks for viewing..73, Mel

10-A Gate Driver Shrinks Automotive High-Current Switching-System Size
OUTH and OUTL separated outputs allow two different external resistors to be selected for gate charging and discharging—a key factor when trying to control electromagnetic interference and CdV/dT effect in high-power motor-driver and SMPS applications.

Surfin’: Microcontrollers — Small But Mighty

By Stan Horzepa, WA1LOU
Contributing Editor

Microcontrollers are gaining a foothold in the ham radio world. Here are some resources to help begin your explorations.

I’ve added a new book to my library: Ham Radio for Arduino and PICAXE, edited by Leigh L. Klotz Jr, WA5ZNU.

No, Arduino is not a new entity on the DXCC list, but rather a single-board microcontroller, that according to the Arduino websi…
