AUDIO_COMPRESSOR_AUDIO_BAND_SPLITTER

Published:2009/7/9 22:31:00 Author:May

This 2-band compressor splits the audio into high and low frequencies and allows independent adjustment of each. Two active filters drive the two halves of dual voltage controlled amplifier/rectifter IC. Each section has a dynamic range greater than 100 dB. Compression gain slopes are adjustable from 2 to 25 for both audio bands. RB adjusts the threshold amplitude between the two bands. RK1 and R2/C2 control the compressor attack times (10 kΩ and 2 μF, respectively), while the 1.5-MΩ) resistor in the integrator circuit controls the release line.   (View)

VSUBCC_SUB__AUDIO_NOISE_REDUCER

Published:2009/7/20 3:12:00 Author:Jessie

The circuit reduces noise and ripple voltage by 40 dB over the 100-Hz to 20-kHz audio range. It provides a clean source of 5-V power for driving audio circuits in portable applications such as cellular phones and multimedia notebook computers. Most linear regulators reject noise only up to 1000 Hz or so, and the bulk of a low-frequency passive filter is unwelcome in portable applications. The circuit shown accepts noisy Vcc in the 4.5- to 6-V range and produces quiet Vcc at a dc level 7 percent lower. For example, it produces 4.65 V at 1 A from a nominal 5-V source, with only 200 μA of quiescent current. The largest capacitor is 10 μF and the resistors can be 0.1 W or surface-mount 0805 size. When operating, the circuit acts as a wide-bandwidth buffered voltage follower (not a regulator) whose dc output level is 7 percent below Vin。 R1 and R3 form a voltage divider that provides the 7 percent attenuation, and C4 helps to form a 93-percent filter replica of Vin at the op amp's inverting input. The op amp's small input bias current (25 nA typical) allows large resistor values for R1 and R3, yet limits the maximum dc error to only 20 mV. The result is a low-pass filter with a 2-Hz corner frequency that provides 20 dB of attenuation at 20 Hz.   (View)

PERIODIC_60_Hz_NOISE_ELIMINATOR

Published:2009/7/20 3:05:00 Author:Jessie

This analog/digital synchronous-averager circuit implements a robust comb filter that (theoretically) infinitely attenuates all 60-Hz harmonics. It does this independently of precision component tolerances. Signal components with frequencies below 20 Hz are passed virtually undisturbed. In the circuit, A1 continuously integrates and inverts the sum of the input signal and the output of buffer amplifier A2. Depending on the state of FF2, either switches S1A and S1B or S1C and S1D will conduct. Because flip-flop FF2 toggles once each 60-Hz cycle, A1 always integrates the difference between the instantaneous input voltage and the integral of the input taken over the preceding cycle. The transfer function of such a piecewise integration is characterized by a series of impulses that occurs atƒ (the fundamental frequency of the integration cycle) and at all integer multiples ofƒ This extreme attenuation of harmonic noise is not limited by component tolerance. The filter's setting time for an input step, however, does depend upon the trimming of potentiometer P1. Optional unity-gain inverter A3 undoes the signal inversion performed by A1 and incorporates trimmer pots P2 and P3 for precise adjustment of overall filter gain and zero offset.   (View)

MUSIC_VISION_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/20 3:00:00 Author:Jessie

The basic concept involves processing an audio signal input into two components (x and y) that are phase-shifted approximately 90° relative to each other. The signals are then digitally sampled and stored in a video RAM buffer as an array of data bits. Bit locations in RAM correspond with the horizontal(x value) and vertical (y value) positions of points to be illuminated on the TV screen. The video RAM is periodically read and erased in synchronism with video frame scanning. The resulting serial video data is combined with color burst and sync signals to generate an NTSC-compatible composite video output signal. The music vision circuit essentially converts the standard raster-scanned TV screen into an oscilloscope-type display in which horizontal and vertical positions are directly controlled by z and y signals. The 90° phase shift between the two signals generates complex and dynamic two-dimensional patterns on the TV screen when music, voice, or other audio signals are applied to the input. The audio-frequency content of the input signal determines the color of the video pattern being displayed.   (View)

ANALOG_DELAY_FLANGING_UNIT_

Published:2009/7/20 2:48:00 Author:Jessie

Audio from the guitar is fed first to a preamp and LP filter, then through an analog delay line IC. The delay is a function of clock frequency. The clock frequency, and, therefore, the delay time of the line, can be modulated by a low-frequency oscillator. This gives the characteristic sound to the guitar audio.   (View)

SIMPLE_UTILITY_MIXER

Published:2009/7/9 5:07:00 Author:May

Here's an interesting mixer circuit. With it you can effectively combine signals from audio to high-fre-quency RF. Also, as a special bonus, this circuit will provide some gain at a low noise figure. The inputs can be of almost any level or impedance, and the output (low-Z) will drive most tuned circuits or transistors.Basically, the device consists of two similar FET amplifier stages with a common load resistor (R2). Each FET develops a signal across this resistor, a form of cancellation occurs, and a difference signal results.If you want less gain, try reducing R2 to 2200-Ω. This modification will not affect the mixing ability.   (View)

DIGITAL_MIXER

Published:2009/7/9 4:40:00 Author:May

A simple digital mixer, based on two dual-Schmitt triggers (4583B) and three exclusive-OR gates, uses an RC time-delay circuit to permit easy adjustment of the output-signal pulse width. The exclusive-OR gates ,can also be used separately as a symmetrical frequency doublet.As shown, a signal passing through the Schmitt triggers is delayed by t, a value equal to RC In (VTP/VTN)where Vtp and Vtn are the positive and negative threshold voltages of the triggers.To function properly, the same time delay must be introduced to signals f1 and f2. Also, the time delay must be less than 50%of the period of f1. Provided that f1 is more than twice the value of f2, the output of the circuit will equal the difference of the two signals (i.e., f1 - f2).   (View)
