Improving and calibrating the capacitive water sensor

Image
In a previous article, I explained a type of water level sensor that works capactitively and therefore passes no direct current through the water. When I wrote that article, I had already made two of these sensors and installed one in each of the two sump pump wells in my basement. These sensors have been working quite well for a long time, but they have a few issues. In this article, I will describe the improvements I have made to the sensor design and how I calibrated the sensors to allow me to determine the water flow rate and the volume of water the sump pump pumps each time it comes on. Introduction The two water level sensors I installed in the sump pump wells were equipped with nRF24L01 wireless modules. They transmitted measurements every 30 seconds to a Raspberry Pi, which recorded them to a database. This allowed me to visualize the water level in the sump-pumps in real time and see roughly how often the sump pumps came on. However, the water level followed this interest

Turn a buck converter module into a buck-boost converter with only two components

Image
In this article I will show how you can turn a buck converter module (like the one shown below), which can only output a voltage lower than the input voltage, into a buck-boost converter module, which can output a voltage that is either lower or higher than the input voltage. Buck converter theory The schematic of a buck converter is shown below: Link to simulation The components in the box, in addition to the feedback loop (not shown), are usually integrated into a single chip. A regular buck-converter works by switching current into the output capacitor through an inductor. When the transistor in the box is on, current can flow from the supply to the output via the inductor. The voltage across the inductor is \(V_{in}-V_{out}\) and the rate of change of the current is \(\frac{V_{in}-V_{out}}{L}\). When the transistor in the box switches off, the current in the inductor continues to flow, but now through the diode. The voltage across the inductor is \(V_{out}\) and the rate of

Self-starting inverter

Image
In this article, I will explain a circuit that can be used to automatically start an inverter when a load is connected to it and turn it off once the load is disconnected. This circuit works by biasing the output of the inverter with a low-current signal from the battery and waiting for a change in that signal. The circuit then uses a current transformer to monitor the current through the load. If there is no current in the load for a few seconds, the inverter is switched off. The inverter The inverter I am using is a modified square wave inverter. The voltage between the live and neutral terminals at the output looks like this: However, this diagram misses out on an important fact: the neutral of the output is not connected to the negative battery terminal. In fact, the modified square wave is generated by alternately switching the live and neutral terminals of the output to an internal high-voltage rail. As a result, both live and neutral are always positive relative to the nega
