i built a boost converter, but it is supposed to boost 4 volts to 8 volts. the multimeter i am using says 0.36 volts.
here is the circuit i am using.
there is a resistor between the arduino uno and the transistor, i forgot to include that. each resistor i rated 1000 ohms. the capacitor is rated 120
microfarad. the inductor has an unknown inductance. i removed it from a laptop recharger. the arduino uno switches the transistor on for 415
microseconds then switches it off for 415 microseconds. then switches it back on , then switches it back of and on and on. the transistor is a tip47g. the diode is sb3100. i removed it from an old multimeter.
