How to Remove Solder Bridges

In this video we look at how to remove solder bridges from small surface mount components. When dealing with really small pins the task of removing solder bridges can seem intimidating, but as you will see in this video it is not tough at all if you have the right tools and know how for the job.

Reduce Noise in Your Sensor Measurements with an Active Low Pass Filter Part 3

In this three part series we look at how to design a signal conditioning circuit to increase the accuracy and resolution of your ADC sensor measurements. The signal conditioning circuit consists of a double pole active Sallen Key Low Pass Filter and a non-inverting op amp. The filter portion is meant to attenuate high frequency noise from your sensor signal to increase measurement accuracy. The amplifier portion scales the signal up to the full range of the ADC to ensure you are getting max resolution. In part 3 we test our finished LPF + Amp circuit.
