    Calculating the accuracy of industrial instrumentation loops?

    No. You may have noise between the sensor and the amplifier. A loop with an integrator zeroes out the static errors but not the dinamic ones. The whole control loop has to be analyzed. ---------------------------- Please read FAQ240-1032 My WEB: <http://geocities.com/nbucska/>

    Microscope slide w/Hi themal conductivity

    How big is the field of view of the microscope ? Do you have to move it (scan across the plate ) or can it stay stationary? I am thinking at adding transparent resistor to hear it and TC to measure it. ---------------------------- Please read FAQ240-1032 My WEB: <http://geocities.com/nbucska/>

    Microscope slide w/Hi themal conductivity

    I made once a thermostat for microscope slide -- I may be able to help but I have to know much more. Otherwise the only advice is : Investigate the possibility of depositing diamond on a metal plate and etching away the metal where it has to be transparent. ---------------------------- Please...

    Noise figure measurements

    Leiser: The FT is a tubular capacitor; the inner electrode has one lead which is coaxial with both electrodes and protrudes at both ends . The outer electrode of the C is a solder plated ring to be soldered around to the perimeter of the hole in the shield. Its effect is equivalent to a...

    SNR of a pulse

    The reason to quantify the S/N ratio is that it effects -- in the case of old, analog AM determines -- the error rate. The error rate in the case of digital communication is much more complex -- e.g. in the sixties there was a Saturn fly- by and the returned picture -- in spite of the...

    Thermistor

    Resistors are temperature dependent, too and there are thermistors with different -- even positive or negative -- temp. coeff. The networks you have found combine these effects to improve the linearity. On a single 6 thermistor temp. sensor you may reach .5C accuracy by calibration. The...

    Noise figure measurements

    I would select a linear -- non-switcher -- PSU which can supply more than enough current , add more electrolytic and ceramic caps with short leads AND FINALLY: ---------------------------- Please read FAQ240-1032 My WEB: <http://geocities.com/nbucska/>

    Small Optically clear fluoropolymer beads w RI ~1.36

    Glass beads are made for sintered chemical filters in about this size by the lb-s. Wouldn't it do? ---------------------------- Please read FAQ240-1032 My WEB: <http://geocities.com/nbucska/>

    SNR of a pulse

    The signal to noise ratio may be irrelevant in a digital system. I had e.g. a system where the digital pulses were a few millivolts in the noise of a few volts and the raw -- uncorrected -- error rate better than 1 in 1 million. To give any help we need much more data ( see my FAQ ) What is...

    linear / non-linear magnets and orientation of magnetization

    Every magnet is non-linear-- linear only within a small enough range ,if you stretch the definition of "linear" ---------------------------- Please read FAQ240-1032 My WEB: <http://geocities.com/nbucska/>

    2 volts relay?

    If you just need one, you may rewind a relay for lower voltage. The wire diameter is squareroot ( V1/v2) times of the old one ( well +/- 15% is OK ) ---------------------------- Please read FAQ240-1032 My WEB: <http://geocities.com/nbucska/>

    2 volts relay?

    How many amperes ? You may want to consider electronic switch -- solid state relay or some custom circuit. How many do you need ? any other consideration ? Space, cost, reliability, etc ? Is the load inductive -- e.g.motor or solenoid -- or incandescent ? ----------------------------...

    Heat Rejection

    Isn't fermentation an exothermal process, too? If the liquid stays in the building 100 % of the pumps energy input stays there, too. ---------------------------- Please read FAQ240-1032 My WEB: <http://geocities.com/nbucska/>
