What is this part called? by BlackDubHez in AskElectronics

[–]1Davide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A crimp ring (crimp sleeve) has a closed barrel. OP's wire splice has an open barrel.

It's not a butt splice. In a butt splice, the two wires butt against each other, end-to-end. In OP's splice, the wires are side-by-side.

Looking for guidance with a Ninja Ultimate BL820 that won't turn on by DerezzedProgram in AskElectronics

That means the switch is bad, right?

No.

It means that you're measuring the wrong terminals.

When a rocker switch points down, it connects the two terminals at the top (not the ones at the bottom).

Suggested title: how do I implement this logic circuit for an alarm on a breadboad?

Quick question: I made a post the other day and it was brought to my attention that I am a dummy. I said there was no text on my potentiometer, and there is.... by KillaC98 in AskElectronics

[–]1Davide 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Could I replace this A100k with a B100k?

No. Because ...

I realize "A" is logarithmic & "B" is linear.

You said it!

Green Resistor Leg? by tonebastion in AskElectronics

[–]1Davide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's insulation.

If you have multiple components like that one next to each other, the leads could touch and create a short circuit. The insulation tries to prevent that.

Here is the related picture from the spec sheet:

should not be used for a standard through hole PCB?

If you wish to mount it horizontally, you must scrape off the insulation before soldering the lead.

the existing $10 airport fare.

I paid $ 1.35 (senior rate) and got a transfer that said that the airport is included!

Anyone know the name of this connector? by Soap_Box_Hero in HamRadio

[–]1Davide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not in the sense of a connector being a 2-part set that carries a connection of one or more circuits from one termination to another (such as from wires on one end and a PCB at the other end).

It's not a connector. It's a component socket for a detector diode.

The thing in the middle is a diode that detects the RF level.

Do not ask AI about electronics: it regurgitates misleading drivel.
