Circuit NotesThe circuit is based on operational amplifier IC1 used in the noninverting amplifier mode. R1 and 2 set the gain at about 500. RV1 (sensitivity) biases the noninverting input to the negative supply. Q1 provides the relatively high trigger current required by the triac. When a signal is received by the microphone, the signals are amplified (by IC1).The triac is triggered and a low resistance appears across its A1 and A2 terminals which are connected via the flashlead to the strobe. The circuit operates almost instantly, giving very little delay between the commencement of the sound and the flashgun being triggered. (View)

These are modulator circuits for modulation of video signals on a VHF/UHF carrier.The circuits require a 5V power supply and few external components for the negative modulation mode. For positive modulation an external clamp circuit is required. The circuits can be used as general-purpose modulators without additional external components. The IC is TDA6800. (View)

CMOS multiplexing technique uses recirculating memory. Eight BCD words are parallel-loaded by strobe pulse into four MC14021 8-bit static shift registers. By feeding output back to input, information is continually recirculated within each shift register at clocked 3.5-kHz scan rate. Four serial output lines are fed to MC14511 7-segment decoder/driver. 3.5-kHz scan oscillator also clocksMC14022 octal counteridivider whose eight sequential output pulses form digitselect control.Commoncathode display is used.-A.Pshaenich, Interface Considerations for Numeric Display Systems, Motorola, Phoenix, AZ, 1975, AN-741, p 15.

Each digit of liquid crystal display has sepalate counter,latch,decoder,and driver,Excitation signal also feeds LCD backplane When segmentis to be deenergized, backplane and segment drive signals have same phase and magnitude so there is no voltage across display. When segment is to be energized, signals are 180°out of phase so square-wave voltage is twice IC supply value.BCD inputs are generated from cascaded MC14518 dual BCD up counters.-A.

Uses C1200 clock IC made by LSI Computer Systems, having time set, logic, division for seconds, minutes, and hours, 7-segment decoding, and display drivers and switches. Four-digit liquid crystal display panel (LCD) is MGC-50. S1 and S2 advance minutes or hours on display at 2-Hz rate for setting time. To use as elapsed-time indicator, dose S1 and S2 simultaneously to generate reset pulse that sets timing change to zero. When both switches are released simultaneously, time count starts from zero.-R. F. Graf and G. J.Whalen,AGiant LCD Clock, C0, Feb. 1978, p 18-23 and 76. (View)

This general purpose signal source serves very well in signal-tracing applications.The output level is variable to more than 1 Vrms into a 50 Ω load. Almost any crystal in the 1 to 15 MHz range can be used. Q1 forms a Colpitts oscillator with the output taken from the emitter. A capacitive voltage divider (across the 2.2 K emitter resistor) reduces the voltage applied to the buffer amplifier, Q2. The buffer and emitter follower, provides the low input impedance necessary to drive 50 Ω loads.

Fig. 15-14 This circuit provides a range of input voltages between which the outputs of both LM139 comparators will be off, allowing Q1 base current to flow through R4. This turns Q1 on and applies power to L1. If VIN changes to a value greater than VA, but less than VB, one LM139 switches on, shorting the Q1 base to ground. This turns lamp L1 off. If a pnp is used for Q1 (with emitter tied to + VCC), L1 will turn on when the input is above VA or below VB. The values of R1,R2, and R3 set the VA and VB points. For example, if VCC is 12 V, and all three resistors are the same value, VB is 4V, and VA is 8 V. National Semiconductor Linear Applications Handbook 1991, p. 260. (View)
