Upper half of circuit is log converter in which output at A1 is logarithmic ratio of E1 and E2. A3 and Q3 form second log converter for E3 input. Log output of second converter is added to that of upper circuit, producing log (E1 E3 /E2) at emitter of Q4.Q4 and A4 take antilog to give final output equal to E1 E3 / 10E2. If only multiplication is desired, E2 can be reference voltage; R4will then establish reference current.-W.G. Jung,″IC Oρ-Amp Cookbook,''Howard W Sams,Indianapolis,IN,1974,p 216-217. (View)

Uses all four sections of Motorola MC3302 quad comparator. First section is connected as 20-kHz oscillator that supplies sawtooth output sweeping between voltage limits set by 100K positive feedback resistor and 15-V supply. Section 2 compares sawtooth output to feedback signal, to produce variable-duty-cycle output pulse for power switch of switching regulator. Sections 3 and 4 initiate current-limiting action; section 3 senses over current and triggers section 4 connected as mono MVBR. Limiting occurs at about 4 A. When load short is removed, regulator resets automatically. Point A goes to push-pull drive for power switch of regulator, and point B goes to current-sensing resistor in output circuit of regulator. Point y goes to 10-V supply.-R. J. Bayer, A New Approach to Switching Regulators, Motorola, Phoenix, AZ, 1975, AN-719, p 7. (View)
