Full ack on the last post Kleinstein and now i get why you mentioned a MOV: the symbol that is used in front of the main OP is a MOV-symbol, i intended to use it as a symbol for a thermal jumper but forgot to add the Theta (dont know if theres a more fitting one)
We´ll see in the end if they aid the project.
Heres the changelog for the current version, that is attached:
Low leakage diodes are now BAV199, typical leakage with <1pA is good enough, see:
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/projects/forward-leakage-of-a-diode/msg1287718/#msg1287718Added LDO-regulators
Detailed the battery indicator section, taken from the Datron 4910. Current consumption with suitable
LEDs is marginal compared to the OP quiescent current. Only implemented for pos battery, should be good
enough as an indicator supposing nullmeter quiescent current draw is sufficiently symmetrical during operation
and recorderoutput draws current from positive supply, making it the fastest draining battery and therefore the most reasonable
to choose for "battery low"-warning.
Improved recorder-section, should now be bipolar input capable and draw absolutely neglegible current, see
https://www.elektronikpraxis.de/galvanisch-getrennte-emi-freie-messschaltungen-a-1102943/Before i assumed the IL300 needs mA LED-drive current and V->f-converters that i found also needed at least 1.5mA
A 6V-lead acid battery enables 2.5V and 5V supplyvoltage, as the LDO-dropoutvoltage and deep discharge voltage
of the battery is fitting for the purpose. With 1.3Ah they should last 13d at expected 4mA max current draw.
What still needs to be done:
Finalizing all component values and producing a BOM
Checking the correct function of the IL-300-section
I found a few nice cases from Hammond and suitable rotary switches, gotta do the mechanical planning now.
If someone has bipolar capable very low quiescent current (<1mA) V->f and f->V-converters im also interested.
Im wary of digital isolators (capacitive and inductive) and similar stuff as a solution, since id like not to worry about the resulting EMI.
