The traditional tube-based regenerative receiver is essentially an Armstrong RF oscillator with variable feedback that is connected to an antenna and a resonant circuit. C1 is usually a 140-pF variable capacitor, and L1 and L2 are wound on a plug-in coil form, with L2 typically having 10 to 20 percent of the turns on L1 and wound next to the cold side of L1. The inductance depends on the desired frequency range, but 150 kHz to about 18 MHz is typical for this circuit. (View)

Two- transistor oscillator generates pulses at about 500 Hz for step-up by 300-mA filament transformer T1 (Radio Shack 273-1384) to charge storage capacitors C2 and C3, which are 250-V electrolytics. Simultaneously, C4 is charged through R2. After allowing sufficient time for capacitors to charge,S1 is pressed to discharge C4 through 272-1146 flashtube trigger transformer T2, which steps up voltage pulse to about 4000 V for ionizing gas in 272-1145 xenon flashtube FT1. C2 and C3 now discharge through ionized gas to produce brilliant flash of white light lasting only a few microseconds, as required for photography of objects moving at high speed. Circuit may require two cells in series for reliable operation.-F. M.Mims, Transistor Projects, Vol. 3, Radio Shack, Fort Worth, TX, 1975, p 49-60. (View)

The figure shows the schematic for the antenna circuit. Because the circuit is passive.no power supply is needed. Plug PL1 connects to the audio output or earphone jack of a scanner. The audio signal is then fed to J2, the earphone/antenna jack of the circuit. A 0.1-μF capacitor, C1, connects the center ( hot ) terminal of J2 to a BNC jack, J1. When an earphone is plugged into J2, C1 feeds RE from the earphone wire to the front end of the scanner, through J1, without directly connecting the audio circuit to the receiver. An earphone connected to J2 will therefore both provide audio and act as anantenna.

One common electrical requirement when dealing with motion control is to monitor the angular position of a rotating object.Quite often, an optical encoder is attached to a rotating shaft, and the encoder's quadrature outputs provide angular displacement information. The key is to turn those quadrature signals into clock pulses, and then into a displacement count that's useful for your application. This circuit requires a reset as well as a clock for sampling the input data. The clock frequency needs to be adjusted to guarantee at least one rising clock edge for each input state change. The circuit takes a set of quadrature signals (CHA, CHB), samples them with CLKIN, and generates output clock pulses (UP or DN) for each input state change. The up/down output clock pulses then can be fed directly into 74XX193 counters as the up and down clocks. If CLKIN is synchronized to external timing, the 193 ripple counter's output can be latched out of phase with the updates to ensure stable counter values. The timing diagram shows the internal functionality of the design. Intervals 1 to 5 illustrate the reset function, which blanks startup instability conditions.Intervals 5 through 12 show timing for a jitter pulse that's been sampled. Interval13 depicts a jitter pulse that missed being sampled and, therefore, caused no change in the output. The remaining intervals illustrate complete cycles for each direction of motion. (View)

A cliff-dweller's dream, this 40-m loop can get apartment-based hams on the air. It also makes a great receiving antenna. The matching transformer, T1, is wound on T50-2 toroid core. The primary consists of 4 turns of 18-gauge enameled copper wire, and the secondary consists of 12 turns of 20-gauge enameled copper wire. Close-wind the secondary and the primary, and make sure that the two windings do not overlap. (View)

Circuit shows power supply designed to operate digital exposure timer using TTL. Since timer logic is needed only when enlarger lamp is on, power supply circuit will be turned off automatically when timer goes low and turns off enlarger lamp at end of exposure, Switch S is closed when timer cycleis activated, setting timer out-put at 5 V and turning on lamp. Transistor and diode types are not critical, Since D2 is con-netted to logic point of timer, power supply re-mains on when S is released, until completion of timer cycle.-E. R.
