With this simple measuring device can: Determine the Zener voltage up to 25V. The connections of cathode and anode of each diode finding. Check if a diode fails. Silicon, germanium and Schottky diodes distinguish. LED test and the V forward measure Q1 is connected as power supply. Because D1 is a constant tension on the base and there is resistance in the chosen emitteraansluiting approximately 5.6 V. With an R2 emitter of 5K6 will run through the transistor than 1mA.

The ^generator output is rectified then filtered and applied between the positive supply voltage and the base of the detector transistor. This provides a negative voltage which reduces the base-voltage when the speed increases. In normal operation, if the tachometer voltage is less than desired,...
