This clownconverter is tunable and can cover either 902 to 928 MHz or 1240 to 1300 MHz for receiving amateur television transmissions or other wideband signals. An NEO 25139low-noise RE am-plifier feeds a BFR90 mixer driven by a BFR tunable LO operating 61 or 67 MHz below the received frequency. A pair of 2N3563 transistors are used as a post-IF amplifier. Overall gain is 37 to 40 dB with around 1.5-dB noise figure. AGC control voltage can be used on gate 2 of the RF stage to reduce RF gain on strong signals; about -3 V is needed to reduce RE gain by >30 dB, Either on-board tun-ing via pot R24 or remote tuning via 10- to 20-V variable dc supply on the IF coaxial cable can be used. Note that striplines are different for 900 and 1300 MHz, and this requires separate models for each band, although the physical layout and circuit diagrams are identical.A complete kit of parts, including PC board, is available from North Country Radio, P.O.

A general-purpose four-digit counter can be made from a 74C925 IC and a few external components. That IC contains the counter, multiplexer, and seven-segment digit drivers, all in one convenient package. A couple of important notes about the circuit: The seven 220-Ω resistors (R1 to R7) are used as dropping resistors between the driver outputs and the segments of the display to protect the LEDs and keep the 74C925 from overheating. The four 2N3904 transistors (Q2 to Q5) act as amplifiers for the digital drivers to keep the display at full illumination. Switches S1 and 52, for reset and latch, respectively, are not crucial, but are highly recommended. The latch will freeze the count if needed. If the switches are not used, pin 12 needs to go to ground, and pin 5 to +V (the circuit's voltage supply). If more than four digits are needed, use the MM74C9261C. The functions are the same, but it has a carry out to cascade more than one chip and four-digit display. (View)

Inputs from sequential timer provide pulsed output and operate de-vices which stay on until next timed event. When an input goes low, output of four-input positive-NAND 7420 goes high, enabling the clock for 74175 4-bit D-type register. Since event-timer clock signal is used, outputs of register are coincident with clock. All outputs remain until one or more inputs goes low.-J.

This circuit for an HP-band converter will convert the 10-MHz WWW signal to a frequency in the 75-m ham band. The local oscillator section of NE-602 is available on pins 6 (base) and 7 (emitter). In this circuit, a 6.00-MHz crystal oscillator is provided by the NE-602. Capacitors C1 and C2 form the feedback network. The junction of C2 and XTAL1 can be connected to either the 15-Vdc line or ground (the former is shown here). The difference frequency between WWV's 10 MHz and the 6.00-MHz crystal frequency is 4.00 MHz, which is located at the top end of the 75-m ham band. Crystals with other frequencies will produce other output sum or difference frequencies, so tune the receiver appropriately if something other than 6.00 MHz is used. (View)

This circuit shows how a regular 4-bit binary counter can be extended with an up/down function just by adding four XOR (exclusive-OR) gates. The principle is simple: The level at the common in-puts of the XOR gates determines whether the gates invert the counter's QA to QB output levels or not. In this way, the outputs of the XOR gates can be made to cycle from 1111 dowtt to 0000 instead of from 0000 to 1111. The disadvantage of this circuit over a real up/down counter is the jump, which occurs when the level on the U/D control input is changed. The sum of the old state and the new state is always 15. For example, if the counter is at state 3 in count-up mode, the state becomes 12 when the U/D line is made logic high to initiate down counting. (View)

The 10-dB attenuator has an attenuation of 10 dB at lower frequencies at 2 m and 70 cm; circuit losses increase to 10.8 dB and 12.0 dB, including interconnecting RG-58/U cable losses of 0.4 dB and 0.6 dB, respectively. Establishing an SWR of less than 1.1:1 at 70 cm was the most crucial design consideration. Changes occur with different coolants. If the assembly is tailored for minimum SWR in air, its SWR increases to about 1.3:1 when you put it in vegetable oil. The SWR changes are caused by increased circuit capacitance due to the dielectric. This condition was improved by using household wax, paraffin, instead of oil. Cctution: Paraffin has ct relatively Lou;ftctsh temperature; it can be used to make candles. Next, to decrease the circuit distributed capacitance, increase the distance of the components from the circuit board by stacking two layers of PC boards at the tie-down pads.This raises the parts of connecting positions to about 0. 120 in. The completed assembly has an SWR of less than 1. 1 : 1 at both 70 cm and 2 m. Schematic and layout of the 10-dB attenuator: R1, 10-Ω 1/2-W (7); R2, 1-kΩ 1/4 W (14). A. Input/output, 3 ft RG-58/U. B.

If you add a set pulse between the cathode-anode of PUT1, then PUT conducts, the + 5 V power supply charges C1 through it, the voltage of C1, which is the anode voltage of PUT2, increases gradually. When the anode voltage is higher than the gate bias voltage, PUT2 conducts, the discharging current of C1 flows through the drive transistor VT1 to make it saturate and conduct, the output Uo is close to OV. The C1 voltage add a reverse bias to PUT1, PUT1 cuts off to make the circuit reset. The output pulse width is basically decided by the C2 and R1, the pulse width is about 10 us. The delay time of the output pulse is decided by the R2, R3, R4 and C1. (View)

This ratiometric 20-kHz voltage-to-frequency converter (VFC) provides superior perforrnance with strain gauges and other ratio-responding transducers-even with noisy, unregulated excitation voltages. Feedback isn't used to achieve the excellent 4-Hz linearity, so there is very-low-frequency jitter-period measurements can be used to get several digits of resolution- even when operating at a fraction of full scale. An optional synchronizing transistor starts the VFC with zero charge at the beginning of each count cycle, eliminating the characteristic digit-jumping often encountered with VFC designs. Grood linearity is attained by making the comparator's reference voltage vary with the input voltage, which precisely compensates for the finite capacitor reset time:where AVin△V/△t. If Vref is made to include the amount t1AVin, then the effect of t1 is elirninated:The MPSA18 is a remarkably high-gain transistor, even at low currents, producing good current-source linearity down to 0 Hz. In addition, bipolar transistors work well with the low collector voltages encountered in this single-supply 10-V design. Moreover, most single-supply op amps will work in place of the LM10. But the LM10 also has a reference amplifier that could be used to construct a 10-V excitation regulator. The LM311 propagation delay gives a reset pulse width near 400 ns, which gives the transistor time to discharge the capacitor. Also, the 311's bias current produces a small negative offset that ensures a 0-Hz output for Vin. (View)
