Re: my new psu
i wanted to know if replacing the 1k pot with a 5k will give a higher max voltage on the psu output?.

Re: Light from semiconductor junctions
Ah yes, a simple way to make a single device act as a pushbutton and indicator - even at the "same time", well within the expectation of timing by the average human ;-)

Re: Latching Relay Drivers
A momentary normally open push button to close and latch the relay
A momentary normally closed push button wired is series with the coil winding to release.

Re: Latching Relay Drivers
Roy,
I can see how easy it would be to make a relay latch, but how would you get it to release?
You set it with a positive pulse and reset by dropping the earth. That will also make it as reset at

I had to go and dig for JK schematic. I have always (way back when) used NAnd gates to create. Did not know there were JK ff ic packages. Maybe I did, and just used NAnd as the lab from TI missile

Oh, that ESP32 is a fun one. LOTS of capabilities there. Check out the youtube videos by Ralph S. Bacon (who unfortunately hasn't uploaded anything recently, I hope he's okay). He does a number

Re: my new psu
In a situation like this, it's really best to tie the unused leg to the center one. The reason for this is if there's any intermittent contact, the effective resistance goes from wherever it's set

Oh yeah, and optoisolators and optointerrupters. I have a whole tube of NOS 4N26, I think, plus piles of salvaged other numbers I did find a use for an optointerrupter. I was given a sewing

Re: Latching Relay Drivers
A point that I didn't address in my earlier reply. You've gotta do *something* with those set and reset pins. A power on reset signal would probably be a good thing to add to your design. That can

That'll work, also a Type D FF, if you tie the D input to the Not-Q output. Whether high input will trigger it or not depends on the part, they can work either way, check the datasheet (have a
