    Buying a new multimeter: how important is hFE?

    Hey, I'm buying my second, better, multimeter (first one costed 3 € : ) ) and I have this checklist: * auto ranging * capacitance measurement at least up to 10mF (I see a lot under 1mF and that sounds pretty useless) * ? hFE - how important is this one? It sounds pretty useful to me * I've...

    VHF oscillator circuit w/ large frequency range and change according to capacitance value

    Hello, It's my first post. I'm new in electronics fields. I'm french and my english is not very good, excuse me. I want to make a VHF oscillator(~ 30 MHz) that his frequency can change with the value of the capacitance. I found in an another post the RF2506 which seems to works but it's...

    What is Cmeu in an npn BJT operating in saturation mode ?

    I know Cmeu is parasitic capacitance in active mode. It's the B-C junction capacitance. But does it change when the npn is operating in saturation mode? Also in general(not just in saturation mode) what happens to Cmeu at increasing Vce? Does it increase? What other things happen to the...

    How to measure capacitance with high series resistance

    I have a sensor that can be modeled as a capacitor and resistor in series. The problem with this resistor is the resistance is on the order of 10's MOhm and the capacitance (we believe) is single pFs. I have tried using a resonant circuit to find the capacitance, but the results end up super...

    Measuring DiElectric constant of organic varnish using parallel plate capacitor

    Hi, am facing a strange issue. In brief, the objective is to measure di-electric constant of a varnish film (approx 30micron) applied to a copper plate. To achieve this, i have made a capacitance meter (using a CC Bridge method) where the electrodes are two brass plates of 11cm diameter, between...
