Meh. What's the #impedance of a #RaspberryPi #GPIO pin in input mode? Is it safe for a high value from another pin in output mode to sink directly to it?
I haven't found this discussed anywhere. It ππ°π°π¬π΄ as though a pin in input mode has quite a high π and sinks very little current, but I don't want to experiment just in case that's an invalid conclusion. ππ€
In an other life I did a lot of #RF Radio Frequency work. Transmission line principles were bread and butter.
This #article explains a lot in a small space. Recommended.
It makes use of a #SmithChart, one of the cleverest bits of maths I know. There is a link on the page I gave that jumps to an equally good explantation of smith charts.

And it's friday again, time for #newstodon. Established by @TexasObserver to promote great work from some of the newsrooms here in Mastodon.
This time with an article from @ghonsel:
Longer life for used batteries
Many old batteries can be saved by replacing individual cells. A new process makes it possible to assess more quickly whether this is worthwhile.

This evening's work. Install new patchbay. Hook up effects. Getting deep with impedance adjustment.. something like that #patchbay #impedance #studio
What Does Hi-Z Button Do On An Audio Mixer?
Letβs take a look at one of the lesser-known but incredibly useful features of an audio mixer: the Hi-Z button. If youβre a beginner in audio mixing, you might not be familiar with this button, so le[β¦]

Even as a #radio enthusiast, I've had massive problems really understanding the notion of #impedance. I can do the math, but it doesn't really internalize, and I'm always thinking about it in a manner similar to having to use tongs to do a jigsaw puzzle.
Until yesterday, when someone describing why an explosion in the air doesn't move into water easily, and the same for an explosion in water:
It's an impedance mismatch.
And the scales fell from my eyes.
