HARC Education and Training meeting, 6:30 PM Tuesday May 28th at the Herrick District Library – Groundworks Area, 300 S River Ave, Holland, MI 49423.
Groundworks is located on the west side of the Main Library’s first floor.
This month the topic is More Fun with Op-Amps
“Explore peak detectors that “remember” the maximum voltage reached, as well as Schmitt triggers whose output retain their value until the input changes sufficiently to “trigger” a change in the output. Use these concepts to design a practical circuit: an alarm to warn if your freezer’s temperature has been above freezing.” 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 can be found at

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. 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.
