Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Rudder angle indicators



Thanks Jens,
That looks good. I had saved some links to projects that I thought would help me build an LED indicator display but I'm electronically challenged & so thankfull of some help. Am thinking of other easy ways of building the magnetic potentiometer. I will post what I come
up with & see wether it's compatible with your project.

Here is a little test I did using a 10kOhm potentiometer (to simulate your
rudder position pot) connected to a very simple circuit, built around two
cascaded LM3914 Dot/Bar Display Drivers; ref

[My first attempt (the non-linear part), using an LM339 Quad Voltage
Comparator, would better lend itself to other uses like showing the
available battery capacity, etc.]

Best regards,
Jens Laland
