Wow, what a brilliant video. I wish I had had a teacher like you when I was at school in the 70s. Anybody remember the flashing roadworks beacons? , Had a few of them in my younger days, took out the pcb and put the beacon back so it just stayed on permanent. Made many flashing gadgets with this pcb, even stepping up to flashing a 240v for a mates party. Didn't have a lot but we enjoyed what we had.

I think there's a lot of engineering minded people out there who are guilty of stealing those roadwork beacons to see how they work. Personally I was surprised to find a giant battery inside, that was simply made of multiple small batteries linked together.

2:45 why will it flow thru resistor 3, not 2? This needs longer explanation.
@EngineeringMindset
2 жыл бұрын
It can flow through either and they will both actually get some power as soon as the battery is connected, I just had to choose a way to visually explain the circuit so I went with this route. The resistor values will never be exactly the same, whichever one has the slightly lower resistance will get slightly more electrons and that will start the process

@@EngineeringMindset Yeah, that was an important thing that should have been mentioned in video, and yet even that answer wasn't complete. To be complete for that question, you should have also mentioned that as soon as the transistor which *happens* to open first (due to the mentioned dissimilarities between components), it immediately pulls down the base voltage of the other transistor, keeping it shut until the capacitor charge has been built up to open it, in turn pulling down the base voltage of the first one, and cycle repeats. While this video is a very respectable attempt to make a good explanation, it also contains other errors, omissions, and inconsistencies causing a lot of headaches for the target audience - unfamiliar on electronics: - 0:55 you should have said "in series" instead of "across", which is inaccurate expression and tends to imply rather an led connected in parallel with the transistor. I see, you said "led circuit", by which you thought about the circuit of led, resistor, battery, and their wires, which as a "circuit unit" is indeed connected across - alas.. essentially parallel - with the transistor. But beginners cannot get that, they don't differentiate the meaning of your "led circuit" from led, and they intuitively think the "across" just as "in parallel with". - You are showing demo videos on transistor operation, in which you are feeding base current directly with a battery. You may not do that! Transistor BE junction always needs a current limiting resistor if fed by constant voltage! Otherwise it gets destroyed, ie. very same applies there than you mentioned with leds! - 2:57 You omitted very relevant "also" word before the word "causes". Such omission causes incorrect implication that it would be the current through the led and its series resistor which causes the "electrons to be pulled into capacitor". But it is not, the capacitor "pulling" is caused directly by the previously mentioned opening of the transistor, to which you could have referred by a word "also". Ie. it is the very same cause which also(!) causes the led and resistor current to flow. The same word omission was when explaining the other side when its time came. - When driving several discrete leds from same source, you should never connect them directly parallel, because very slight differences between their forward voltage characteristics may cause huge imbalance in distribution of the current between leds, possibly destroying one and after it the rest will have yet hugely more current and be certain to be destroyed. This is actually quite a common cause for premature failures of cheapo led lighting products. Every parallel-connected discrete led should each have a separate current limiting resistor.

Great tutorial of an LED light chaser. I have made this circuit before, you can use 2n3904's too. Also with a large number of LEDS in the chain you can experiment with connecting a wire across several LED to send a signal to another transistor not in following the main loop. It creates interesting chase patterns depending on where you connect it.

Maybe I'm wrong but here is what I understood after a first view of the video : The current is not going through the first capacitor because the first loop is open by the first transistor, so it goes to directly to the second loop, and this will power the second LED while charging the second capacitor. Once the second capacitor is fully charged the current will flow to the first transistor which will close the first loop and turn on the first LED while charging the first capacitor. Once the first capacitor is fully charged it will active the second transistor and then it cycle like this again an again.

The base-emitter junction of the NPN transistor acts like a diode. Significant current will not flow across it until the forward voltage of 0.7V has been reached. When transistor 1 is fully switched on, its collector is pulled close to ground voltage. If capacitor 1 is in a fully discharged state, then base of transistor 2 is also close to ground. But notice the orientation of those capacitors? Why is the negative side connected to the bases of the transistors? This explanation has actually been simplified. What really happens during the charge/discharge cycle is that the base of the transistor in an astable multivibrator will sometimes go below ground voltage. For a more complete explanation of this circuit see RSD Academy's channel

So indirectly your work has helped me teach others (I hope), so thank you.

Nice video, but I have to stress that an astable multivibrator is NOT a flip-flop. A key aspect of a flip-flop is that it can be flipped to one state and holds this state until you deliberately flip it to another state. It is right that a flip-flop is a multivibrator, but a bistable or n-stable multivibrator (where n is the total number of states). An astable multivibrator is usually described as a relaxation-oscillator.

Tip: Solder the (AE) aluminum electrolytic capacitors flush with the board. Per IPC-610, I recall if they have to be raised they need some kind of reinforced support on the leads. Whether by creating a spring kink or applying RTV under the leads. Sorry I see it so much as an EE on end product and it makes me want to head slap. Think about those tiny skinny leads holding that big belly cap. Makes it easier to accidentally bend a few times max and that’s it.

I enjoy these topics but found this one confusing to start. It would help if you labeled the diagram at 2:45 so I knew which components you were referring to without having to rewind the video multiple times. And I'm still confused about the capacitors. They look like they are backwards on your diagram. Why are the negative legs connected to the positive side of the battery? Is this a special use of capacitors or is the diagram wrong? Again, not sure what you're trying to tell me. I've watched the first half of this several times but still confused. I even went and watched your How a Capacitor Works video again. In that you show electricity flowing opposite of how you do in this diagram with the negative leg connected to the negative of the battery. So again, are these special capacitors in that you connect them backwards versus normal? What am I missing? I get the idea that one side works for the duration of the capacitor's charge and that causes the other side to eventually turn on and back and forth. But the fact that it does still looks like magic to me. Also, when Capacitor 1 reaches .7v you say it opens Transistor 2. How does the negative side of C1 provide positive voltage to Transistor 2? I must be missing something but not sure what. Any insights or corrections are appreciated. Trying to learn.

Beautiful yet simple circuit. I have to wonder how long that button cell will last. I'm guessing less than an hour.

It is rated for 550mAh and the circuit draws around 50mA by design so it could last around 11 hours. Although I think the current is probably lower than this so it could be longer.

A button cell like the cr2025? Try 36 hours with a bit higher value of led current limit resistor, and the resistor on the base of the transistor. I have worked on more complex circuits then this, with longer battery life of 13 hours. I have gone pass the 18 hour time, with some of the circuits I have done. The current draw approximately 28mah! With the same results......

Informative video as always. I want to suggest a video idea, industrial dryers. I like your work on HVAC systems, helped me so much.

Suggestion: label the caps and transistors in the circuit demonstration with the same names as your narration. Capacitor 1, transistor 1, etc. Nice work though.

Not sure if you have already made a video on Crankcase pressure regulators (CPR) and evaporator pressure regulators (EPR) within a refrigeration system if not, could you kindly. Thank you for your content it’s been a huge help in learning about HVAC
