MitchElectronics VU Meter DIY Kit

VU Meter Kit (Log/Linear) The MitchElectronics VU Meter kit, as the name suggests, is a VU meter that shows the size of a voltage as an LED bar. These are often seen in music equipment, whereby the relative amplitude of an audio source can quickly be seen, but they can be used in other applications including battery chargers and generic sensor readings. Product specifics Component Count : 43 Battery Powered? : Yes, 9V PP3 (Battery Sold Separately) Operating Voltage : 3V to 16V Operating Frequency : N/A Output Voltage : N/A Output Current : N/A Dimensions (PCB) : 62mm x 40mm Mounting Holes : Yes Prebuilt : No – Kit form Batteries Not Included Included in this kit 2 x 14 DIP Socket 2 x LM324 2 x 100nF Capacitor 1 x 100R Resistor 16 x 1K Resistor 1 x 1.5K Resistor 1 x 2.2K Resistor 1 x 4.7K Resistor 1 x 15K Resistor 1 x 22K Resistor 1 x 47K Resistor 1 x 100K Resistor 1 x 10K Potentiometer 5 x Green LED 2 x Yellow LED 1 x Red LED 1 x 1N4148 Diode 1 x Blue Wire 1 x Black Wire 1 x PP3 1 x PCB Board Applications The VU Meter can be used in numerous applications thanks to its ability to be easily added to other projects. The most common project to use the VU meter in is anything audio related, and this would require the kit to be built with the logarithmic resistor values. For applications that involves linear signals, the VU meter can be built with the linear resistor values, and this can be used for sensor readings, battery charge levels, and so much more. Furthermore, the use of comparators, resistor ladders, and potentiometers makes this kit excellent for education, including GCSE and A-Level qualifications. Notes Note that product specifics such as output frequency depend on the tolerance of the components. The numbers provided here are an approximation only. All parts sold by MitchElectronics are compliant with RoHS and REACH directives which ensure that they can be used in commercial environments as well as complying with environmental laws.
