Strain_gauge_with_thermoelectric_junction_effects

Published:2009/7/22 3:41:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows the previous strain-gauge example (Fig. 1-11) with low-level nodes highlighted and shown as thermoelectric junctions. An even number of connections cancels the errors as long as no temperature gradients appear across the circuit. Such gradients are best prevented by symmetric PC layouts with traces sized for matched thermal conductivity. In extreme cases, the circuitry can also be insulated from external heat sources and drafts.   (View)

Strain_gauge_amplifier

Published:2009/7/22 3:37:00 Author:Jessie

In the circuit, two MAX425s (A1 and A2) amplify the differential 20-mV full-scale output of a strain-gauge bridge. The signal is then filtered and buffered by a MAX480 (A3). The 3-Hz bandwidth of the filter limits output noise to about 12 μVrms (40 nVrms referred to the input). This translates to a signal-to-noise ratio of 114dB, which allows stable measurements to within a few parts per million.   (View)

Dc_and_bridge_titles_and_descriptions

Published:2009/7/22 2:12:00 Author:Jessie

The circuit of Fig. 1-1A is adjusted to match a 40-dB RIAA curve (Fig.1-1B). With break points at 50, 500, and 2100 Hz, the entire curve is fixed by a specified gain at1 kHz. The circuit is designed for use with newer moving-coil magnetic phono cartridges, which have a sensitivity of 0.1 mV per CM/S (compared to older cartridges with sensitivities of1 mV per CM/S). The circuit is adjusted by injecting a low-level signal into TP-1, with the transformer disconnected. At 100 Hz, adjust C3A for an output level that is 6 dB lower than the low-frequency output. At 1000 Hz, adjust R8A for an output level 20 dB lower than the low-frequency output. At 21 kHz, adjust C4A for an output that is 40 dB less than the low-frequency output.

Low_noise_and_drift_dc_amplifier

Published:2009/7/22 3:32:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit combines the low noise of an LT1028 with a chopper-based carrier-modulation scheme to get a very low-noise, low-drift dc amplifier. As shown in Fig. 1-9B, noise in a 0.1- to 1-Hz bandwidth is less than 40 nV with 0.05 μV/℃ drift. In general, to maintain this low-noise performance, the source resistance should be kept below 500Ω. Such resistance is typical of transducers (strain-gauge bridges, magnetic detectors, etc.).   (View)

Switchable_audio_amplifier

Published:2009/7/22 3:27:00 Author:Jessie

The SL6310 shown in this figure is a low-power audio amplifier that can be switched off by applying a mute signal to pins 7 or 8. Despite the low quiescent current consumption of 5 mA (only 0. 6 mA when muted), a minimum output power of400 mW is available into an 8-Ω load from a 9-V supply. With the values shown, the voltage gain is about 25, determined by the ratio of (R3+R4)/R3, with an input impedance of about 100KΩ), determined by,R1 and R2.   (View)

Magnetic_cartridge_preamplifier

This circuit provides an approximate gain of 50 (34 dB) at 1 kHz with a distortion of 0.004%. If more gain is required, R3 can be decreased, but C3 must be increased proportionally to avoid loss of bias. C1, C2, R1, R2 provide RIAA equalization. C3 and R3 provide a rumble filter. The S/N ratio is better than 70 dB below a 5-mV input.   (View)

Ratiometric_bridge_with_A_D_conversion

Published:2009/7/22 3:50:00 Author:Jessie

In this circuit, a MAX183 directly converts a bridge output to a 12-bit code using only two precision op amps. No differential-input instrumentation amplifier or reference is needed. The bottom of the bridge is driven by A1 so that the A1 inverting input remains at 0 V. The other bridge output is amplified by A2 in a basic noninverting configuration. No differential amplifier is needed because the bridge output to A2 is referenced to 0 V. The A1 output also drives the MAX183 VREF input so that reference changes (VDD is the reference) in the bridge excitation and the A/D track each other.   (View)

TONE_RINGER

Published:2009/7/6 20:45:00 Author:May

The MC34012 tone-ringer chip derives its power by rectifying the ac ringing signal.That signal is normally at 20 Hz and measures between 70 and 130 volts rms. It uses that power for the tone generator and to drive the piezoelectric transducer. The sound that is produced is a warble that varies between two frequencies, f0/4 (f0 - 4) f0/5.The clock, or fundamental, frequency, f0, is generated by a relaxation oscillator. That oscillator has R2 and C2 as its frequency setting components providing a selectable range of 1 kHz to 10 kHz. Selecting different values for R2 and/or C2 changes the clock frequency, which in turn varies the warble frequencies. The MC34012 chip comes in three different warble rates at which the warble frequencies (f0/4, f0/5) are varied. These warble rates are f0/320, f0/640, or f0/160 and the different chips are designated as MC34012-1, -2, and -3, respectively. For example: with a 4.40 kHz oscillator frequency, the MC34012-1 produces 800 Hz and 1000 Hz tones with a 12.5 Hz warble rate. The MC34012-2 generates 1600 Hz and 2000 Hz tones with a similar 12.5 Hz warble frequency from an 8.0 kHz oscillator frequency. MC34012-3 will produce 400 Hz and 500 Hz tones with a 12.5 warble rate from a 2.0 kHz oscillator frequency.   (View)

CARRIER_CURRENT_AUDIO_TRANSMITTER

Published:2009/7/6 20:40:00 Author:May

The decision to use either AM, narrowband FM (less than 15 kHz), or wideband FM (greater than 30 kHz) depends on the application. For the transmission of music, FM is better because it has greater noise immunity. For speech or other noncritical applications, AM may be satisfactory. Our transmitter permits either mode by switch selection. Audio is fed from S1a to either the FM or AM circuitry. Starting with the FM section, amplifier Q1 accepts an audio signal in the 10 Hz to 20 kHz range of about 0.5 V peak-to-peak. The audio gain is adjusted via R5 to provide up to 60 kHz deviation of voltage-controlled oscillator IC1 which is set to nominally 280 kHz. IC1 and Q1 are supplied with a regulated 12 V from IC2. A square-wave signal from IC11pin 3 drives Q2, and Q2 drives the output amplifier Q3. A coupling network is used to match the nominal 45- Ω output impedance of Q3 to the 10- Ω ac line impedance. In the AM mode, audio is coupled to Q8 via R24 and then amplified again by transistors Q4 to Q7. The normally stable dc voltage at test point A is thereby varied at an audio rate. Because Q2 and Q3 obtain their dc VCC from test point A, the VCO carrier input to Q2 is amplitude modulated by the varying VCC amplitude. That produces an amplitude-modulated output from the transmitter. Careful setting of carrier level R23 and audio level R24 provides up to 100% modulation. The kit is available from North Country Radio, P.O. Box 53, Wykagyl Station, NY 10804.   (View)
