    common oscillator frequency's

    i have been looking at the source for the AVR comonent testers.
    they can generate a squarewave at a number of frequencys.

    all good, but most of the preset ones seem pointless, so i'm looking for idea's for usefull frequency's to replace them with.

    the originals go upto 5Mhz - that may be a limit.

    i'm thinking:
    time bases for mains:
    50Hz
    60Hz
    100Hz
    120Hz

    some ceramic oscillator freq's
    like 455Khz

    and some mcu freq's
    like 1Mhz, 2Mhz, 3.579Mhz and 4Mhz

      See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crysta...or_frequencies

      Lots of those with weird frequencies are still common (like UART baud rate multiples, VGA clocks, Ethernet).

        Operating frequency for motherboard common mode inductor/filter
        by J_T
        I have a question - I have replaced the PSU on my own iMac Pro. However, when removing the motherboard I knocked of a 120 OHM 30% 0.3A small surface mount common mode inductor/filter (~0602 size) in the ethernet circuit near the female RJ45 port.

        The closest match I can find on Mouser is 120 OHM common mode inductor at 100MHz - my question is this frequency correct for a motherboard? The schematic for the motherboard only provides '120 OHM 30% 0.3A' and the TDK part number does not return anything in google.

        Sorry, I am not experienced hence a basic question.

        HP ProBook 450-G2 LA-B181P - What is a common resistance?
        by Jane
        I have faulty HP ProBook 450-G2 LA-B181P - doesnot start. When connecting a charger, the LED on plug in connector blinks from yellow to blue. (I tried to search a short on mainboard.)
        What is a common resistance ( to ground ) I should measure on a coil that leads to VGA chip(RT8880CGQW) ? I measure only about 9.6 Ohms. Is it normal?

        Carrier HK50AA063 display controller common failure help
        by ctroxtell
        I've got a control display for a Carrier chiller that I'm trying to understand what the common failure with these boards are. This is the board in question https://www.supplyhouse.com/Carrier-...arquee-Display all of them seem to develop a failure with the up and down arrow buttons on the right side of the display, the esc and enter keys I've never seen fail. Once these boards are plugged in they run 24/7, you used to have to press extremely hard with the end of the blunt screwdriver and you could still get the arrows to work but now it has completely stopped working. The button...

        Help needed diagnosing and repairing a PC engine LT, currently looking at oscillator
        by soop
        Hello all. I'm currently trying to repair a damaged PC engine LT (a portable games console circa 1991)I got a few years ago. The thing had 10+ lifted pads and three lifted traces from corrosion from bad caps when I got it, and the first step was to clean it and repair the traces and pads as best I could using some copper and a high temperature two part epoxy, then replace the capacitors. Of course it would be amazing if that had fixed the console, but things are never so simple. I've double checked the capacitors, and I'm (90%) confident that they have connectivity where they need to have connectivity,...

        All,

        Some of you have helped me in the past and I am very appreciative of all the help! (I have fixed TVs/Stereos/ and other small appliances with your efforts...Thanks so much!!!



        Today I went to a local HAM Radio Festival. It was one of the smaller ones in our area. My stepfather is the HAM operator. I tinker in electronics but am a Software Programmer (27 years now).

        I was looking for a few odds and ends for some electronics work I have to do for the household/farm. Typically these type of shows have the grab bags or a electronics vendor...
