So I'm playing with a AVR PiC, the ATMEGA32. And its needs 16mhz crystal hooked to it like so: http://tinypic.com/r/ei9im9/5 Note; I used a Cap and Inductor pair for the crystal symbol. I am just wondering what is the role of the capacitors? Can I use 1uf caps instead and still get 16Mhz?

I need a 2-pin crystal, 8.86723 (PAL video standard). Where do you get these now? Seems nobody carries them, not even ham radio shops. I'd visit a ham swap meet but I can't wait. I can get them from Ireland... Any sources in the States? Thanks. (I'm in N. California.)

For sometime now I have been trying to build a behavioral model of logic gates that was consistent with real-world behavior when mixed into an Analog environment. (Existing logic models, such as those in PSpice and LTspice are state machines and do not behave properly when used for Analog applications, such as when you build a crystal oscillator around a 74HCU04.) So I now invite you to ...

I'm about to build this circuit to compare output from different ferrite receive antennas. I will be using it with the the FET amplifier referenced at the bottom of the page, so the input impedance is not a concern. I'm mostly interested in the DC output to monitor signal levels. AM band frequencies. http://www.crystal-radio.eu/diodedetector/endiodedetector.htm Any fix for the si...

I'm importing some electronic parts/equipment (1kg worth) and wanted to compute a reasonable estimate of shipping costs - could someone weigh their parts and post the values. What are the weights of various types of: Through-hole components: diode, capacitor, inductors, transistor, ICs, crystal, LED, ferrite cores-beads, Potentiometers, Trimpots, Photodiodes/IR, microprocessors, ...

I got a used 36-volt Crystalyte hub motor and controller from Craigslist. (The guy who sold it to me said they can take 72 volts, but I'm still trying to confirm that from their website, which is a bit skimpy. Looks like I'll have to email them.) Motor = 400 X4 (408) http://www.crystalyte.com/ I tried 48V (4x 12v SLA batteries, 8 A-h each), and the bike worked fine for about 3 miles, but ...
