TOUCH_SWITCH_2
Small AC signal momentarily introduced by finger contact on touch plate causes voltage at pin 8 of CA3098 dual-input precision level detector to be greater than high reference voltage. This toggles memory flip flop in IC, making voltage high at pin 5. Vottage at pin 7 then increases exponentially to V+ in about 10 s.This 10-sdelay is maximumthat button can betouched; longertouch makes system oscillate between ON and OFF states until finger is removed. Shorter touch energizes load, placing pin 7 at V+. Next touch of plate turns circuit off.-G. J. Granieri, Precision Level Detector IC Simplifies Control Circuit Design, EDN Magazine, Oct. 5, 1975, p 69-72.   (View)

CONTACTLESS_KEYBOARD

Published:2009/7/13 4:29:00 Author:May

CONTACTLESS_KEYBOARD
Touching one of 16 metal pads at inputs of 74150 multiplexor produces corresponding 4-bit BCD output from 74194 shift register. During scanning of multiplexer inputs by counter, output is produced only when finger of operator is on corresponding fingertip-size touch pad. Requires 10-kHz pulse from external source to strobe multiplexer and serve as clock for counter. Duration of clock pulse must be more than 20 ns so untouched pads charge up to threshold voltage but not long enough to let touched pad charge.-D. Cockerell, TTL IC Serves as Touch Keyboard, Electronics, Feb. 20, 1975, p 108-109.   (View)

CRT_GRAY_SCALE_CONTROL
Circuit provides digital selection of up to 16 shades of gray for image on screen of cathode-ray tube, as required for different imaging requirements or different photographic films. DMOS FETs provide fast switching times so data rate is limited only by TTL drive circuits. Four bits of digital data stored in 9311 memory are used for selecting desired scale. Output of circuit is used to control beam intensity. Circuit also permits complete video inversion for negative.-K. R.

METAL_FORMING_CONTROL

Determines yield point by sensing when tension and elongtion begin increasing at different rate during stretching and forming. Elongation signal comes from potentiometer R1, linked to ram of hydraulic relief valve. Tension signal comes from strain-gage bridge that delivers 0 to 10MV at 60 cps. At yield point.system lowers tension as dies are applied to metal. At end of cycle, operotor opens stop switch, resetting relays that are energized by power line.-G. J.

ANALOG_TO_DIGITAL_CONVERTER_CIRCUIT
A working circuit that uses a PC parallel port to receive data from a 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) (Texas Instruments TLV1549) is shown. A fourth wire for reset can be powered from a logic-level signal. In fact, if your printer port produces 5 V (not all do), you can use the more-common TLC1549. Resistor RI reduces transmission errors by isolating the ADC from the cable capacitance; it might be unnecessary if the cable is short.   (View)
