MECHANICAL_COUNTER_SPEEDUP

Published:2009/7/13 21:22:00 Author:May

Vacuum-tube circuit doubles speed of counter, with minimum of overheating and other damage to counter coil and mechanism. Operation depends on pulsed overvolting for a limited time, along with some sliding overvolting wherein excess voltage is applied to coil when circuit is first completed, then reduced so it drops below normal operating voltage during pull-in time.-R.

TRIAC_DRIVE

Published:2009/7/13 21:20:00 Author:May

Motorola MOC3011 optoisolatoR serves as interface between 10-mA input circuit and gate of triac controlling AC load. Choice of triac depends on load being handled. Optoisolator detector chip responds to infrared LED; once triggered on, optoisolator stays on until input current drops below holding value of about 100μA.-P.

VOX__FOR_SSB

Published:2009/7/13 21:20:00 Author:May

Uses LM3900 quad Norton opamp and NE555 timer operating from single supply. U1A and U1B amplify microphone signal. U1C amplifies audio sample obtained from station loudspeaker. Outputs of both amplifiers are converted to varying DC voltages by rectifiers in detector stages. Rectifier outputs are summed resistively by R6 and R7 for application to inverting input of voltage comparator U1D. Positive microphone signal drives comparator output low and triggers NE555, which in turn energizes 12-V relay K1 after delay set at about 10 ms by R8 to avoid losing first syllable. Same delay applies to relay dropout, to hold relay closed between words. If K1 drops out for fraction of second at end of timing cycle even though audio is present, add 2N5139 transistor to NE555 input as shown.-D. A. Blakeslee, A VOX for a Very Small Box, QST, March 1976, p 24-26.   (View)

FM_DEMODULATOR

Published:2009/7/13 21:17:00 Author:May

The frequencies at IC3's phase-detector output are the sum and difference of the frequencies at PDI and OUT. Thus, with appropriate cutoff frequency and gain, the low-pass filter (IC4) passes only the original 10-kHz signal to the demodulated output. The pole for this filter is set by the 16.2-kΩ and 100-pF components. The frequency response for IC3's PLL is set by RPD, CPD, and RZ, When the loop is in lock, PDI is in approximate phase quadrature with the output signal. Also, when in lock, the duty cycle at PDO is 50 percent, and PDO's average output current is 250 μ A. The current sink at FADJ demands a constant 250 μ A, so PDO outputs above and below that level develop a bipolar error voltage across RPD that drives the FADJ voltage input. Note: The MAX038's internal phase detector is a phase-only detector, producing a PLL whose frequency-capture range is limited by the bandwidth of its loop filter. For wider-range applications, consider an external phase-frequency detector.   (View)

FOUR_DIODE_TR_SWITCH

Published:2009/7/13 21:17:00 Author:May

Circuit requires only two pairs of high-frequency switching diodes having current ratings appropriate for transmitter power. With diode pairs spaced as shown, impedance at T junction looking toward transmitter is infinite during reception because there is open circuit half a wavelength away created by nonconducting D3 and D4. Line is matched in receiver direction so all incoming power from antenna goes into receiver. When transmitter is on, D3 and D4 conduct and power flows toward antenna, while D1 and D2 also conduct and place short-circuit across receiver input.-A. Lieber, Passive Solid-State Antenna Switch, Wireless World, Jan. 1975, p 12.   (View)
