AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on connecting a Hitachi HM55B compass module to a LabJack UE9 microcontroller. The user is familiar with programming in LabVIEW but seeks guidance on the proper wiring and connection methods for the compass. It is noted that the compass utilizes serial SPI communication. Additional resources, including pin diagrams for both the compass and LabJack, are provided to assist with the connection. Overall, the thread emphasizes the need for clear instructions on interfacing the two devices effectively.

Hi, i have a LabJack UE9 microcontroller, and i have no idea how to connect the hitachi hm55b compass module to the labjack, the picture of the pins are located here: http://foxlx.acmesystems.it/?id=114 For the Labjack the I/O ports are here http://www.egmont.com.pl/labjack/obrazki/UE9_PDA_d.jpg

i have no problem programing the programto labview, But i don't know how to connect the compass with the labjack properly ? any suggestions? thx.

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
