AUTOMOBILE_AIR_CONDITIONER_SMART_CLUTCH

Published:2009/7/6 3:12:00 Author:May

This circuit disables the air conditioner compressor when additional engine power is required. It does so by monitoring the engine vacuum at the intake manifold. If the vacuum drops to 40% of its normal level, the compressor clutch is disabled, removing the air conditioner load from the engine. After the engine returns to normal vacuum level, there is a 6 second delay before the compressor clutch is enabled and the air conditioner is reactivated. This allows 6 seconds of extra power, about 500 ft at 60 MPH, which increases the safety margin when passing another vehicle. Loss of cooling is minimal because the air conditioner fan is not interrupted. When the engine is accelerated, manifold vacuum drops and vacuum switch VS opens to 40% of the normal manifold pressure. This causes Q1 to turn on, discharging C2 and tuming off Q3 via diode D2. When Q3 tums off, so does Q2. When the engine reaches its normal operating vacuum, VS closes and Q1 turns off, allowing C2 to charge for 6 seconds until Q3 turns on again.   (View)

DUAL_TIMER_TONE_STEPPER

Published:2009/7/6 3:08:00 Author:May

One section of RS556 dual timer is connected as free-running astable MVBR for supplying pulses to trigger input of other section connected as mono MVBR driving loudspeaker. When both MVBRs are adjusted so one trigger pulse initiates each timing period and no trigger pulses occur during timing pefiods, output tone has frequency of freerunning MVBR. With two trigger pulses per timing cycle, every other trigger pulse is ignored and tone is at half frequency. With three trigger pulses per cycle, output is one-third of frequency. Can be used for classloom demonstration of electronic music;settings of R1 and R3 can be adjusted to give tones regembling violin, bagpipes, or almost any other instrument.-F. M.

8080_8224_8228_interrupt_type_interface_for_A_D_converter

Published:2009/7/23 20:56:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows an interrupt-type interface for the ADC0808/0809 using a 6-bit bus comparator to decode a read-and-write strobe. Viewed from the CPU, this interface looks like a bidirectional data port where the address is set by the logic levels on the in inputs of the DM8131. When data bits are written to the ADC, the 3 least-significant bits on the address bus define the channel to be converted. The rest of the bits are decoded to provide the START and ALE strobes (Fig. 6-13B). When the conversion is completed, EOC sets the interrupt flip-flop, and (when the data bits are read) the interrupt is complete.   (View)

AF_DlVlSlON_BY_2_TO_11

Published:2009/7/6 3:03:00 Author:May

Ratio of C2 to C1 determines division ratio, as given in table. When C2 charges to peak point firing voltage of Q2, it fires and discharges C2, so C1 charges to line voltage. Q2 then turns off. Next cycle begins with another positive pulse on base of Q1, discharging C1. Division range can be chanced by utilizing programmable aspect of PUT Q2 and changing ratio of resistances.-R. J.

WIDE_BANDWIDTH_PEAK_DETECTOR

Published:2009/7/6 3:00:00 Author:May

This circuit can detect the positive peaks for signal frequencies higher than 5 MHz. It yields ±1% accuracy for 400 mV to 4 V pk-pk signal amplitudes on sine, square, and triangular waveforms. The Am685 comparator output increases whenever VIN is a greater negative voltage than VOUT; the high comparator output, in turn, charges C1 in a positive direction. The CA3140 op amp amplifies the C1 voltage with respect to the ECL-switching-threshold voltage (- 1.3 V) developed by diodes D1 and D2. For repetitive waveforms, each cycle boosts VOUT until it equals the peak input value. The peak-detection process is aided by the comparator's open-emitter output, which allows C1 to charge rapidly through R2, but to discharge slowly through R2 and R1. Reducing the value of C1 shortens system-response times. Although the circuit can't detect negative-going peaks, it can be modified to measure the pk-pk value of bipolar signals that are symmetric about ground. To do so, divide VOUT by 2 using two 1-KΩ resistors and feed the comparator VOUT/2 rather than VOUT.   (View)
