HARC Education And Training (E.A.T.) meeting — Tuesday, April 23, 2024

The next HARC Education And Training (E.A.T.) meeting will be held on Tuesday, April 23, 2024 at 6:30pm.  It will be held at the Herrick Library in the GroundWorks space, 300 S River Ave, Holland, MI.

Understanding Modern Electronics: Amplifier Circuits Using Op-Amps

Now that the versatility of negative feedback has been demonstrated, adjust the strength of negative feedback in op-amp circuits to build amplifiers with whatever gain you choose. Create an amplifier that sums two or more inputs, see a circuit that converts current to voltage, and explore the design and operation of an op-amp-based light meter.

…Understanding Modern Electronics…   For those not familiar with the “Understanding Modern Electronics” course, it is a series of video lectures presented by Professor Richard Wolfson of Middlebury College. The course consists of 24 lectures that provide a conceptual explanation of the principles of how electrical circuits work and are used to control everyday devices in our modern world. Components and topics that are covered include transformers, transistors, resistors, capacitors, diodes, semiconductors, Ohm’s Law, and analog and digital levels.

The Herrick District Library is asking that individuals register for this event.  Event registration will open one month ahead of the event.

HARC education and training sessions are open to the public and you do not need to be a HARC member or have an amateur radio license to attend; however, all attendees under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.  If you have questions about amateur radio equipment, operating practices, licensing, test and measurement, or anything remotely related to amateur radio, this is the place to be.
