BATTERY_SAVING_TIMER

Published:2009/7/13 1:32:00 Author:May

Developed for use with alarms, remote controls, or unattended electronic equipment, to turn off battery auto-matically at predetermined interval after circuit is actuated by control logic or switch. Turn-on applies positive pulse that triggers SCR on, grounding load and UJT timer Q2. After delay interval determined by values of C1 and R1, Q2 fires and discharges C1, producing pulse across R, that tums on Q3. This in tum shunts SCR and commutates it off. Circuit is thus turned off, after which only very small leakage currents through reverse SCR junction will be drain on battery.-D. Weigand, Battery Saver Has Automatic Tum-Off, EDN Magazine, April20, 1973, p91.   (View)

DUAL_FUNCTION_BISTABLE_SCRAM

Published:2009/7/13 1:19:00 Author:May

Porlion at right of dotted lines acts as regulator that holds constant voltage on output circuit until tripping of control rods is called for by nuclear radiation detector.Outputs of bistable circuits are connected through and gates so that, if desired, two input signals are necessary before trip signcd is generated. Malfunction in ion chambers or failure of circuit component can make reactor exceed maximum critical assembly condition and generate trip signal that drops control rods.-E. J.Wade and D.S.

TRANSIENT_ELIMINATOR

Published:2009/7/13 0:06:00 Author:May

Used between DC power supply and load to eliminate supply transients that might damage semiconductor devices. Zener rating should be about 10% higher than supply voltage so Q1 is normally turned off. Q2 is normally conducting. When voltage spike is present on input line, zener conducts and turns Q1 on. Q1 then places positive bias on 10K pot to turn off Q2 and protect load during transient.-J. Fisk, Circuits and Techniques, Ham Radio, June 1976, p 48-52.   (View)

CONSTANT_CURRENT_SOURCE_CONVERTER

Published:2009/7/13 0:03:00 Author:May

To maintain regulation, the switching voltage regulator shown includes independent loops of current and voltage feedback. If the voltage loop is disabled, the current loop can be used to implement a general-purpose current source. The first step in obtaining a current source is to apply 5 V to V+. Because the chip expects 12 V of feedback at that terminal, it assumes a loss of regulation and shifts control to the current loop. This mode of operation allows an increasing ramp of current through Q1, causing the voltage at pin 8 to increase until it reaches the internal comparator threshold (210 mV). Timing circuitry then turns off Q1 for a fixed 2.3 μs, and the cycle repeats. The result is a relatively constant inductor current, which also happens to be the load current.With a proper choice of component values, the circuit generates constant current over a wide range of input voltages. The circuit (with component values shown) is a fast charger for NiCd batteries that provides 60-mA charging currents.   (View)
