Not Just Arduino-talks

Back to Not Just Arduino page

This is a "wish list" of topics our members would like to hear about. If you want to come talk to the group or if you are just interested into attending a session please add your name on the page. The format is up to you, it could be a very short presentation or a more hands-on demo. Sessions are open to everyone.

Below are a few examples of topics about power control and design in low voltage circuits, I'm sure some of them overlap. Feel free to add more talks and leave some comments.

Talks	Speaker	Interested	Comments
The mathematics of electronics, Watts, Ohms, Farads, Coulombs, Amperes, Volts		Paul Maidment| Bradley Wood	Ohms law; resistors, capacitors in series and parallel; Kirchhoff's laws, Power equations.
How to measure, control and limit current		Paul Maidment| Bradley Wood	This is quite a big area: from basic resistor usage, to transistors, mosfets, relays, triacs, etc. Might be worth splitting out into sub-sections. -- Bradwood (talk)
How to design for the power requirements of your circuit/project		Paul Maidment| Bradley Wood
How to design your project for lower power usage		Paul Maidment| Bradley Wood
How to reduce power consumption via programming (applies to most microcontrollers)		Paul Maidment| Bradley Wood	would be nice to cover the ATMEL's uC's SLEEP capabilities. -- Bradwood (talk)
