Another Perplexing Temporary Issue and Delay
During testing of a new modification I added, MOSFET power control to bring down the weather station standby current, everything was looking […]

Fixed the “magnet too weak” issue with angle sensor
I replaced the magnet and now it works great. Apparently, the break in the ring magnet was enough to make magnetic field […]
Success with the SMT soldering, but now another issue…
This One ring does not rule them all. 🙁 The connections are all good now on the angle sensor PCB but during […]
MetOne Anemometer Fix… Finally!
Well, after screwing up the footprints for the IC’s on both PCB’s (this board AND the DS2423 rain gauge board), I soldered […]
Reworked PCBs arrived from JLCPCB!
Just received the re-worked PCBs from JLCPCB and the replaced IC pads look like they will work a lot better. While I […]
MetOne Anemometer
Now, on to the anemometer testing. I am currently trying to use a hardware debounce circuit (shown) and it WAS working and […]
MetOne Windvane: Testing the MLX90316 angle sensor
Output (in degrees) from WindSubsystemTest code using a 10′ ethernet cable. Connection is problematic, but it does work showing that SPI signals […]
MetOne Windvane: Remedying the broken “precision” sensor problem
As I mentioned in the page for my Weather Station project, the special “precision” potentiometer somehow was reading OPEN…no resistance measured at […]
