Terrible electronic jokes

[Douglas Blake]

What I know about electricity . . . is shocking!

LOL... you lacked the capacity to resist that didn't you?

The problem is . . . it's mostly true!

Appalician son returns home over the holidays to his parents cabin. His dad asks him what he learned.

The boy replies Pi R Squared.

His mom turns to Pop and says "Pop we are wasting money. Everyone knows pie are round and cake are square."

And, well, there's the ultimate DIY project...

That can't really be a 'Man Amp' if it doesn't have a knob!

Its really cool.

 

[Pano]

That sounds like something you can chill out with.

All electronic equipment can be placed into one of two categories:

1. Items which need to be fixed.
2. Items which will need to be fixed after you've poked around inside them!

I keep all my cold solder joints in one!

I built up an amplifier pcb.
I didnt have a op amp for the DC servo so left it out.
The amp powered up ok but seemed to have low frequency oscillation.
I went round and round it checking all components but couldn't see why it oscillated.
I printed off circuit diagrams and poured over them for a while.
Then it hit me, the op amp missing provided a positive feedback path from output to input through a 1 meg resistor and a capacitor which were part of DC servo circuit.
So pinched an op amp from another pcb and it worked fine.
The op amp when in circuit inverts the signal.
Doh !

Technician's rules of conduct...

1) If it an't broke don't fix it.
2) If it is broke, know when to stop fixing it.
3) Never do anything you can't explain to your boss.

Typo Bob. Just because I was born in California does not mean I was raised there.

I blame it on the keyboard.

Amature Radio Operator code:

If it is broke, fix it.
If it isn't broke, modify it.

I relayed a true story in the write-up for the "Sadie's Monitor Stand" project at Audiodevelopers.com:

MPJA also carries some nice airtight strain reliefs for the AC cord–they call them “sealing glands”. I thought they were pretty cool and tried showing my wife my glands, but she just threatened to slap me when I asked her to take a look .​
