Flash_EPROM_programmer

Published:2009/7/24 10:39:00 Author:Jessie

The MAX732 current-mode PWM regulator makes a good flash EPROM programmer because of the logic-compatible shutdown control, and because the supply is capable of programming four flash devices simultaneously. When heavily loaded, the MAX732 operates in the continuous-conduction mode, where inductor current never returns to zero. When inductor current is depleted, the LX voltage rings around the level of the input supply voltage. This is caused by the tank circuit, which is formed by the inductor and stray capacitances (windings, diode, MOSFET within the chip, etc.).

LCD_supply_with_digital_adjust

Published:2009/7/24 10:35:00 Author:Jessie

If the expense of a customized autotransformer (L1, Fig. 6-25) is too high, this low-cost pulse-skipping circuit can be used. In this case, the relatively high output voltage is accommodated via an extemal switch transistor that has 40-V BVCEO specifications. A simple D/A scheme adjusts the output for contrast control and temperature compensation of the LCD. Maxim, 1992, Applications and Product Highlights, p. 4-5.   (View)

Adjustable_LCD_supply_with_autotransformer

Published:2009/7/24 10:31:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit provides a variable output voltage to adjust the contrast of LCDs. The autotransformer L1 steps up the output to prevent overvoltage to the LX transistor. The total voltage from VIN to LX must be limited to 22 V (with a 5-V input), the voltage at LX cannot exceed -17 V. With L1 (a miniature 0.2-in diameter toroid), the voltage at LX is reduced from the output voltage (determined by the turns ratio). Maxim, 1992, Applications and Product Highlights, p. 4-5.   (View)

8_digit_LED_driver

Published:2009/7/24 10:26:00 Author:Jessie

In this circuit, two MAX7217s drive 16 digits from a single 5-V supply, while being addressed through one 3-wire serial link. Only one external component (per chip) is needed. One resistor sets the maximum current (ISET) for all 8 segments, while a fast (up to 10 MHz) cascadable serial interface loads data directly from most microprocessors.

Isolated_D_A_converters_with_serial_input

Published:2009/7/24 10:24:00 Author:Jessie

In this circuit, two MAX543 serial-input 12-bit D/A converters (DACs) receive power and data from a MAX250 receiver/transmitter. Clock and data lines are shared by both DACs, but separate LOAD1 and LOAD2 inputs latch the data in. The MAX250 also has a shutdown input (SHDN) that powers down the circuit and cuts supply current to less than 10μA. Maxim, 1992, Applications and Product Highlights, p. 2-9.   (View)

A_D_converter_for_a_41_2_digit_LCD_display

Published:2009/7/24 10:19:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows an ICL8052/ICL71C03 chip pair with an ICM7211 driver, which can be used to operate a 41/2-digit LCD display. With the values shown, the full-scale is ±2.000 V. Data bits are latched into the driver by the STROBE signal and Overrange is indicated by blinking the 4 digits. A 120-kHz clock is provided by an ICM7555. Figure 6-22B shows a gross overvoltage protection circuit (to be added if required). If the capacitor is added to put 36 of the ICM7211, the LCD backplane oscillator frequency is reduced from about 150 Hz. To adjust, short terminals 10 and 11 of the ICL71C03 and check that the display is 0000. Then, apply 2.000 V at terminals 10 and 11, and adjust the 10-kΩ potentiometer (pin 7 of the ICL71C03) for a reading of 2000 on the display.

ASTABLE_FLIP_FLOP_WITH_STARTER

Published:2009/6/30 23:47:00 Author:May

A pair of non-zenered MOSPOWER transistors, a pair of LEDs and a simple RC circuit make an easy sequential flasher with al-most unlimited sequencing time-from mo-mentary to several seconds. The infinite input resistance of the MOSFET gate allows for very long sequencing times that are impossible when using bipolars. One precaution, though, don't wire your circuit using phenolic or printed circuit boards when looking for slow sequencing (they exhibit too much leakage!).   (View)

BUFFERED_BREAKOUT_BOX

Published:2009/6/30 23:22:00 Author:May

The monitoring circuit consists of four tri-color LEDs driven by an equal number of op amps configured as gain-of-one inverting amplifiers. Each LED is wired in the circuit so that it glows red when the input to the op amp is high, and green when the input is low. The LED remains off when the input is disconnected from a circuit, when it's at ground potential, and when it's connected to a 3-state output that's in the high-impedance state. Each input has an impedance of 10,000 ohms preventing the circuitfrom loading communication lines. The op amp requires both positive and negative sup-ply voltages to properly drive the LEDs. Both voltages are supplied by a single, nine-volt battery. The battery supplies the positive source directly. The negative source is supplied via a CMOS 555 oscillator/timer that's configured as an astable oscillator, which is used to drive a standard diode/capacitor voltage doubler. When the 555 is connected to the monitoring circuit, the output voltage is not 18 volts (2×9), but a little under nine volts, due to loading. The circuit draws about 16 mA with all LEDs off; with all four on, it draws between 20 and 30 mA, depending on how many LEDs are high, and how many are low. The use of CMOS op amps reduces quiescent current drain considerably.   (View)

LOW_CURRENT_CONSUMPTION_LAMP_FLASHER

Published:2009/6/30 23:04:00 Author:May

The circuit is economical in components, and will work with virtually any transistors and is reliably self-starting. The voltage Vb can be taken from a divider, as shown at the right. If taken from a fixed source, flashing becomes slower as battery voltage falls.The lowest drive current into the base of Tr3 is about (Vb-0.6 V)/(R2 + R4). Resistor R4 limits the initial current from C1 and, as shown, R2 and R4 can be roughly equal when a divider is used for Vb. Resistor R2 equals R6R7/(R6+ R7). With the voltages shown, and with R2 = R4, the on-time is about 1.1 C1R2 and the off-time about 0.28 C1R1. Using the component values shown the period is about 0.55 sec. with a duty cycle of about 7% and a mean battery current including the Vb divider, about 1.5 mA.   (View)

Brief full-power flashes are obtained when the SCR conducts during positive half cycles of the line voltage. The SCR fires when the voltage at the divider, R3 and R4, reaches the gate-firing level. Diode D1 conducts during the reverse cycle of the SCR and provides preheating current to the lamp filaments.   (View)
