Generating 5 V at 10 A from a 40-V supply with up to 90 percent efficiency is possible using a synchronous switching regulator. The synchronous switching regulator circuit shown achieves this high efficiency by using external MOSFETs with low RDS(ON) and by shunting the Schottky diode after the topside MOSFET has completely turned off to minimize the Schottky diode's conduction losses. The LT1160 half-bridge driver alternately drives the high side and low side MOSFETs ON and OFF during switching. The loop is controlled by the LT3846 current-mode PWM controller and operates at 40 kHz. A key feature of this circuit is the ability to drive the external high-current MOSFETs safely. Internal logic in the LT1160 prevents both MOSFETs from being on at the same time, and its unique adaptive protection against shoot-through currents eliminates all matching requirements for the external MOSFETs. These protection features, in combination with the LT1160's ability to drive up to 10,000 pF of gate capacitance, make paralleling power MOSFETs for high-current applications an easy task. The high-side gate voltage is provided by a floating supply, which is boosted above the HV rail by bootstrap capacitance Cboost. An undervoltage detector in the LT1160 can sense an undervoltage condition at either the input supply or the floating supply and turn off both MOSFETs to prevent excessive power dissipation. (View)

Circuit provides delays well over 1 min even with low operating voltages of ICs. When start pulse is applied to RS flip-flop A1-A2, Q2 turns off and allows RT to provide charging current for timing capacitor CT. When voltage across CT gets high enough, Q1 turns on and resets flip-flop, terminating delay period. A3 provides buffered complementary output.-R. W. Hilsher, Long-Delay Timer, EEEMagazine, Aug. 1970, p 79.

C1 is charged to -4.5 V when switch S1 is closed, biasing gate to cutoff and deenergizing relay. When S1 is open, capacitor begins discharging at rate determined by RC time constant of circuit.

Used with digital logic to prevent generation of false logic signals when power supply is turned on or turned off, FETs sense +15 V and -15 V supplies and conduct when either supply drops below pinchoff voltage, activating shutdown output. With values shown, shutdown output is disabled when supplies exceed about 4 V, to provide normal operation.-E.

National MM5309 clock IC is used as timer in circuit that maintains timing with adequate accuracy during periods of power-line failure and retums automatically to 60-Hz line as soon as power is restored. Applications include control of lights in unoccupied home. Timing action tums on lights for 4h period every 24 h. When power is applied, intemal multiplex circuit strobes each digit until digit with connected diode is accessed. This digit stops multiplex scanning, and BCD outputs present data from selected digit as control waveform whose edges determine timer data.- MOS/LSI Databook, National Semiconductor, Santa Clara, CA, 1977, p 1.74-1-77.

Away of ten LEDs serves for measuring time intervals up to 10 min, for timing phone calls, photographic exposures, and cooking. Pulse output rate of UJT oscillator Q1 is determined by value of C1 and setting of R1. Pulses are counted by 7490 which gives total count in binary form. 7490 recycles after each l0 counts. 7441 converts binary signals from 7490 to decimal outputs driving LED indicators. Each LED glows in sequence as count advances from 0 through 9 and repeats. For 10-pin timer, adiust R1 until first LED stays on for exactly 1 min.

Working principle:
The photo exposure timer circuit is composed of 555 monostable circuit, which uses manually start monostable circuit. When the power is turned on, the timer will be in the steady state. At this point the voltage of the timing capacitor CT: VCT = VCC = 6V. The two inputs are in high level to this 555 equivalent trigger, that is, VS = 0. KA does not pull in, and the relay is opened, then the exposed lighting HL does not shine. This circuit provides parameters with about 1 second to 2 minutes delay time, which can be adjusted by potentiometer RP. The relay in the circuit must choose the products with the pull-in current being more than 30mA. (View)
