How to make a component tester using arduino

[@ΔημητρηςΤσατσαρωνης-θ2τ]

Hello, when uploading I receive a lot of warnings. The lcd displays strange characters like Chinese. What am I doing wrong? After a few hours of searching I found the problem. The schematic image is wrong. We must connect the data lines in reverse order.

[@himurakenshin9923]

I have a same problem

[@wilxoxful1]

I love you a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot

[@IU1PZE]

I have the same problem too

[@chainleang5313]

same like you,fix that draft please

[@ishwarsuryavanshi632]

HELLO bro thanks for this video it is a wonderful project everything is working fine but LCD is not working, we have checked lcd is working fine but after uploading code lcd is blinking once and then it shows nothing

[@prabhatmotwani8472]

Yeah same problem bro , lcd is not working

[@omsingharjit]

how will code work without all of required lib which is not provided ?

[@ElectroRetro]

You can install the required libraries from arduino library manager.

[@omsingharjit]

@@ElectroRetro i tried but didn't find can you provide zip of all of it on G Drive plz?

[@ElectroRetro]

Which libraries are missing?

[@omsingharjit]

@@ElectroRetro i searched for first two but i didn't find , there's 23 .h files like maths.h , Makefile.h , Transistortester.h i can't find it

[@ElectroRetro]

While compiling which library is showing as missing?

[@davidpossoc271]

Can we test inductance in this?

[@ElectroRetro]

Yes

hello, can i use a LCD DISPLAY TFT 1.8 RGB SPI 128x160 IC drive ST7735.

[@RandomFAI]

What measures does it have

[@ElectroRetro]

This is an automatic Transistor Tester, to identify pinout and characteristics of various discrete semiconductors ( Transistors NPN, PNP, MOSFETs, etc ). It's also evaluating resistors, capacitors

[@pauljackson2126]

Can this test inductor or just capacitor, resistor, transistors, diodes, etc.?

[@ElectroRetro]

Yes, you can test inductors.

[@pauljackson2126]

@@ElectroRetro great then... I'll definitely try this one... Thanks

[@ElectroRetro]

Actually this project is not made by me. You can see the real maker of this project in description. I just replicated this project.

[@anishpattnaik2046]

I tried making the project but I am getting some random characters as the output on the LCD screen how do I solve this problem.

[@ElectroRetro]

Make sure the LCD to Arduino pins are correct. Connect like shown in the video.

[@ElectroRetro]

Connect like this, arduino pin 2 to lcd D7, arduino pin 3 to lcd D6, arduino pin 4 to lcd D5, arduino pin 5 to lcd D4, arduino pin 6 to lcd E, arduino pin 7 to lcd RS.

Hey there! How can i calibrate it? It shows not calibrated and my resistor values arent shown properly even though i have made the connections properly

Hi i am able to install hex and eep file to atmega, but now problem is while testing a 10k resistor it shows 3.7k as and battery 9v test shows 1.3 volt. But yhe frequency generator is good. 100nf capacitor shows 75nf. Pls help me. I have put all the resistor correct

[@ElectroRetro]

Try self test to calibrate the tester and BTW this tester can't measure voltage.

Can we test ic's in this

[@ElectroRetro]

No

[@akankshasharma9947]

@@ElectroRetro can we make a system where we can test ic's, resistors, capacitors

[@ElectroRetro]

I think yes, not every IC's. Some IC's like logic ic, etc. If you want to test one particular IC, you can make a custom circuit to test only that IC.

[@robertheselwood4207]

Does it only test transistors, as it doesn't detect a resistor after a transistor.

[@ElectroRetro]

It can also test resistors

[@robertheselwood4207]

@@ElectroRetro While I appreciate your efforts, it doesn't test resistors very well.using a 220ohm resistor across pins A3 and A4 connections on the board it shows as P-IFET 123=G. Then across pins A3 and A2 it shows as 1-||-31 4843L 116.7 ESR=,00ohm It also gives similar readings across pins A3 and A4. I wonder if anyone else finds the same. Thanks

U need to calibrate.
