TELEPHONE_SILENCER

Published:2009/7/10 22:34:00 Author:May

If you are busy and cannot answer or do not wish to answer your phone, this circuit will give a busy signal without you having to leave the phone off the hook. After a predetermined time, the circuit is deactivated. U1 forms an astable multivibrator that can be set for a time up to 10 minutes by values of R3 and C3. When S1A is depressed, U1 starts, and Q1 latches, which powers the circuit. At the end of a time interval determined by R3 and C3, Q2 and Q3 cut off and remove power from the circuit. During the operation, 53 throws a 150-Ω resistor across the phone line, which simulates an off-hook condition.   (View)

COLOR_FOR_TV_TYPEWRITER

Published:2009/7/10 22:19:00 Author:May

Uses 3.579545-MHz crystal osdllator to drive string of CMOS buffers forming digital delay line. Output delays caused by propagation times in each buffer can be used directly or can be trimmed to specific colors by varying supply voltage. Reference phase and delayed color outputs go to 1-of-8 data selector whose output is determined by code presented digitally to its three color select Iines. Selector drive Iogic must retum to 000 (reference phase) immediately before, during, and for at least several microseconds after each.horizontal sync pulse so set can lock and hold on reference color burst. Sine-wave output chrominance signal is cut down to about one-fourth of maximum video white level.-D. Lancaster, TV Typewriter Cookbook, Howard W Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1976, p 205-206.   (View)

TV_INTERFACE_FOR_TYPEWRITER

Published:2009/7/10 22:18:00 Author:May

Video input circuitfor black and white transistor TV receiver permits feeding video output of TV typewriter to video driver in set, for producing character or DRIVER game display on TV screen. Use of direct coulpling eliminates shading effect or changes in background level as characters are added.Diodes provide 1.2-V offset in positive direction so in absence of video the video driver is biased to blacker-than-black sync level of 1.2 V. With white video input of 2 V, driver is biased to usual 3.2 V of white level. Hot-chassis TV sets can present shock hazard.-D, Lancaster, TV Typewriter Cookbook, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1976, p 190.   (View)

TELEMONITOR_FOR_RECORDING_PHONE_CALLS

Published:2009/7/10 21:55:00 Author:May

This circuit switches a tape recorder via PL2. When on-hook, D5 conducts, turns on Q1, and cuts off Q2. Ringing voltage will also cause D5 to conduct; C2 and C1 should be rated 150 V or higher. When phone is off-hook, the 10 V or so present on the line will not break down D5, and therefore Q1 is off and Q2 is biased on. PL2 connects to the remote control jack on the tape recorder. Audio is taken from PL1.Caution: Use either a battery tape recorder or an FCC/CSA/UL-approved ac adapter-powered tape recorder. This precaution is to avoid inadvertent 120 Vac on the telephone line.   (View)

TELEPHONE_TOLL_TOTALIZER

Published:2009/7/10 21:44:00 Author:May

The Telephone loll Totalizer-built around two 4 518 dual synchronous up counters, a 74C925 4-digit counter, a 4 584 hex inverting buffer, and a 4081 quad 2-input AND gate-is fairly simple.Approximate toll charges can be calculated with this counter. It is started when dialing and stopped (manually) on hang-up. It is actually a counter that measures the time you are on the telephone. By calibrating it to the average cost/second of calls (get this from calculations you have done on your monthly phone bill), you can closely estimate your phone bill.The circuit consists of an oscillator running at the 100000 x frequency into the main counter (74C925). Typically, cost of telephone calls is 15 to 25 cents/minute so that the clock frequency (U1) is in the 25- to 40-kHz range. U2 and U4 with gates U3 form a ÷100000 counter. The approximate cost in dollars and cents is read out on the multiplexed display, DISP 1, 2, 3. S2 resets the counter to zero after each use.   (View)

CAMERA_HIGHLIGHT_EQUALIZER

Published:2009/7/20 1:28:00 Author:Jessie

Provides better signal-to-signal noise ratio and improved definition over conventional aperture equalizers covering full brightness range. Since most image orthicon noise is in low light region, improvement is achieved by dividing signal into two parts and equalizing only relatively quiet highlight portion. Complete video signal is amplified and applied to white clipper and to difference amplifier V1-V2. Horizontal drive is also applied to clamp portion of circuit. Video signal is clamped at white clipper, where high-lights are clipped from signal-M. V. Sullivan, Highlight Equalizer Sharpens Tv Pictures, Electronics, 31:3, p 72-74.   (View)
