  • HICKOK Recognized for Excellence for 54 Years
    Since 1910, the name "HICKOK" inscribed on elec- trical and electronic instruments has been the assur- ance of the finest and most dependable in electronic test equipment. For longer than there has been an "electronics" industry, HICKOK engineering has continually pioneered in the development of highest quality, versatile, reliable test and indicating instruments. From the days of Marconi's wireless, into the age of semiconductors, HICKOK has led the way in such 1910-1964 important development as: HICKOK • The first Dynamic Mutual Conductance Tube Tester , universally accepted as providing the standard test Recognized For Excellence of a vacuum tube .. HICKOK tube testers have been widely emulated -they have never been surpassed. For 54 Years • The friction·free, Taut-Band Meter-eliminating friction from pivots, jewels and hairsprings. • 250 0 Scale Meters . • Sub-miniature, ruggedized meters built to military specifications. • And now, in the Transistor Age-a full line of tran· sistor testing instruments featuring the same ease of operation, unmatched versatility, une xcelled reliability that have characterized HICKOK products for more than half a century. ,1~ ];~-'[ gu;4-eo ~,~zc. 3302 W . 8ROAD S T.

Although the words “he,” “him,” and “his” are used sparingly in this course to enhance communication, they are not intended to be gender driven or to affront or discriminate against anyone. DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT A: Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. PREFACE By enrolling in this self-study course, you have demonstrated a desire to improve yourself and the Navy. Remember, however, this self-study course is only one part of the total Navy training program. Practical experience, schools, selected reading, and your desire to succeed are also necessary to successfully round out a fully meaningful training program. COURSE OVERVIEW: To introduce the student to the subject of Test Methods and Practices who needs such a background in accomplishing daily work and/or in preparing for further study. THE COURSE: This self-study course is organized into subject matter areas, each containing learning objectives to help you determine what you should learn along with text and illustrations to help you understand the information. The subject matter reflects day-to-day requirements and experiences of personnel in the rating or skill area. It also reflects guidance provided by Enlisted Community Managers (ECMs) and other senior personnel, technical references, instructions, etc., and either the occupational or naval standards, which are listed in the Manual of Navy Enlisted Manpower Personnel Classifications and Occupational Standards, NAVPERS 18068. THE QUESTIONS: The questions that appear in this course are designed to help you understand the material in the text.

  • 100 Transistor Circuits.Pdf
    save on your computer as .pdf: 1-100 Transistor circuits.pdf Go to: 101 - 200 Transistor Circuits Go to: 100 IC Circuits See TALKING ELECTRONICS WEBSITE email Colin Mitchell: [email protected] INTRODUCTION This e-book contains 100 transistor circuits. The second part of this e-book will contain a further 100 circuits. Most of them can be made with components from your "junk box" and hopefully you can put them together in less than an hour. The idea of this book is to get you into the fun of putting things together and there's nothing more rewarding than seeing something work. It's amazing what you can do with a few transistors and some additional components. And this is the place to start. Most of the circuits are "stand-alone" and produce a result with as little as 5 parts. We have even provided a simple way to produce your own speaker transformer by winding turns on a piece of ferrite rod. Many components can be obtained from transistor radios, toys and other pieces of discarded equipment you will find all over the place. To save space we have not provided lengthy explanations of how the circuits work. This has already been covered in TALKING ELECTRONICS Basic Electronics Course, and can be obtained on a CD for $10.00 (posted to anywhere in the world) See Talking Electronics website for more details: http://www.talkingelectronics.com Transistor data is at the bottom of this page and a transistor tester circuit is also provided. There are lots of categories and I am sure many of the circuits will be new to you, because some of them have been designed recently by me.
