The Current Source with Derek Brodeur

• Derek Brodeur
  
  • Applications engineer involved in writing control software for atmospheric and vacuum robotics used in the semiconductor robotics industry
  • Runs a YouTube channel called "The Current Source" where the primary focus is around electronics
  • What made you want to go start a Youtube channel?
  • Favorite old Project that you have completed?
    • Most difficult video was the Doppler Shift
    • SERs and PIN Diodes
  • Projects that you are currently working on
    • David Kronstein is letting Derek borrow one of his high speed Chronos cameras, so Derek is going to use an High Voltage capacitor and giant SCR to fry some electronic components and hopefully get some good footage
    • Contact bounce in high speed using the camera (and ways to mitigate bounce)
    • 16-bit flip dot array for demonstrations (instead of boring LEDs)
    • Build a TEM cell from aluminum scrap
