They work really well 0 12v inputs 15 bit useful range.
Arduino rf power meter.
This sketch will readout rf power and swr from any swr bridge for example monimatch type.
The project uses an arduino pro mini board whose adc feature is used along with the concept of ohm s law and voltage divider circuit to develop this wattmeter.
This figure is calculated from the power vs voltage slope of the ad8307.
Main arduino code that runs on the m5stack with graphics and buttons.
This is a project based on arduino board which can measure the power consumption of the devices.
Rf power meter with 1mhz 10ghz bandwidth and 55db dynamic.
As this monimatch type of bridge is frequency dependant the meter must be calibrated for every band.
Rf power meter with arduino ad8307 and oled by rudi imbrechts on7ir january 2019.
The sampling fractions usually is proportional to the square of the turns.
I have a 4 channel version module very similar to try out based on the ads1115.
Some parts do need a serial resistor some.
For the 2 048 volt reference you can use every reference chip you like.
Rf power meter default function calibration 10 and 40 dbm for each band stored in eeprom.
Current ratio is proportional to the ratio squared.
As this monimatch type of bridge is frequency dependant the meter must be calibrated for every band.
In the arduino sketch i compensate for the loss in the rf tap by altering the intercept point used for the power calculation.
The little arduino nano uses the forward and reverse dc voltages to calculate rf power and voltage standing wave ratio.
This sketch will readout rf power and swr from any swr bridge for example monimatch type.
Because my primary interest was for vhf uhf shf i have foreseen positions for 6m 4m 2m 70 cm 23cm and 13cm bands.
Code is based on sketch of mike richards g4wnc and adapted for use with an i2c oled display some display functions added.
Because my primary interest was for vhf uhf shf i have foreseen positions for 6m 4m 2m 70 cm 23cm and 13cm bands.
The intercept point is the power input required by the ad8307 to give a theoretical 0v output.
Arduino rf power swr meter.
When we connect this wattmeter on to a device which is in operation the 16 2 lcd displays its power consumption value in watts.
