LOGIC_CHIP_TESTER

Published:2009/6/18 23:46:00 Author:May

This device compares two logic signals and indicates whether the two logic signals are the same or different. To use the tester, first connect the test input to the suspect pin of the DUT. Next, con-nect the reference input to the same pin of an identical reference chip that is known to be good. Push the reset button to begin the test; the green section of the bicolor LED will be illuminated. Any sig-nal on the test device that differs from the one on the reference device will then mornentarily light the LED lamp that corresponds to that pin, and also latch on the red section of the bi-color LED. That indicates that the device under test is faulty. If the reference and DUT signals are the same, the DUT is OK, and the green LED will remain lit.   (View)

1_kW_POWER_METER

Published:2009/6/18 23:40:00 Author:May

The power meter shown uses only one transistor pair to provide the complete (X)(Y)function.The circuit is intended for 117 Vac±50 Vac operation, but can be easily modified for higher or lower voltages. It measures true (nonreactive)power being delivered to the load and requires no external power supply. Idling power drain is only 0.5W. The load current-sensing voltage is only 10 mV, keep-ing load voltage loss to 0.01%. Rejection of reactive load currents is better than 100:1 for linear loads.Nonlinearity is about 1% full scale when using a 50-μA meter movement. The temperature correction for gain is accomplished by using a copper shunt (+0.32%/℃) for load-current sensing. This circuit measures power on negative cycles only, so it cannot be used on rectifying loads.   (View)

NEGATIVE_REFERENCE_VOLTAGE_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/6/18 23:19:00 Author:May

This figure illustrates a circuit that supplies a precise negative reference voltage. To meet requirements of accuracy and stability, it incorporates a highly precise positive reference voltage by use of a high-gain, stable feedback booster circuit.The booster circuit includes an operational amplifier and a transistor, which handles the load current. Typically, a po sitive-reference-voltage circuit can handle only relatively small load currents.This consideration does not apply in the present circuit because the p ositive-refer ence-voltage unit is placed in the voltage feedback loop of the booster circuit in parallel with resistor RB. Thus, from the perspective of the p o sitive-reference-v oltage unit,RB is a constant load. This feature enhances the stability of the circuit by removing the load regulation factor.Provided that the offset voltage of the operational amplifier is low, the accuracy of the overall circuit depends only on the accuracy of the p ositive-refer ence-voltag e unit. The overall circuit draws very little power for its own operation. It can handle unexpectedly heavy loads; the feedback conftg-uration and the high gain provided by the combination of the operational amplifier and the transistor give the circuit a very low output impedance. The capacitors reduce the noise voltage and help stabilize the circuit. In the event that the load becomes a short circuit, RD, protects the transistor by lim-iting the load current.   (View)

SINGLE_CHIP_DIGITAL_VOLTMETER

Published:2009/6/18 23:04:00 Author:May

This 4 1/2-digit DVM circuit is built around a Maxim ICL7129ACPL A/D converter and LCD driver. An ICL8069 CCZR 1.2-V band-gap reference diode is used for a voltage reference. S2a-b-c select one of four ranges up to 200 V (maximum). The meter also has a piezoelectric buzzer for continuity testing. S3 selects either DVM or continuity. Crystal 1 can be changed to 100 kHz if maximum rejection of 50 Hz is desired. The crystal normally provides 120 kHz for best 60-Hz rejection. This is caused by the dual-slope conversion technique used in IC1.   (View)

SAMPLE_AND_HOLD_CIRCUIT_II

Published:2009/6/18 21:25:00 Author:May

Driving a D/A converter with an A/D converter provides an overall analog-hold function, which though limited in output resolution, offers zero voltage droop and infinite hold time. The A/D converter shown (ICl) includes a 12-bit compatible track/hold at its input. The track/hold specifies a 6-MHz full-power bandwidth, a 30-ns aperture delay, and a 50-ps aperture jitter. The direct connections shown al-low the D/A converter to reconstruct signal levels within the input range of 0 to 5 V.   (View)

HIGH_EFFICIENCY_DISPLAY_CONTRAST_AND_BACKLIGHT_CONTROL

Published:2009/6/18 4:19:00 Author:May

The LT1182 and LT1183 are compact high-performance solutions for powering LCD screens used in portable computers and instruments. Backlight control using a Cold Cathode Fluorescent lamp (CCFL) is accomplished with a switching regulator at efficiencies up to 90%. A second switch-ing regulator converts the positive input to either positive or negative bias voltages used for LCD contrast control. Both regulators allow full range of adjustment using a D/A converter, PWM or po-tentiometer control. Grounded bulb configurations are also easily controlled with minimal parts count. The 200-kHz switching frequency minimizes the size of transformers and external compo-nents. A shutdown mode powers down both regulators and reduces supply current to just 35 μA.   (View)
