Attendance_counter

Published:2009/7/19 22:02:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows an ICM7249 connected as an attendance counter, with the LCD display showing each increment. The battery can be replaced without disturbing operation if a 100-μF capacitor is placed in parallel with the battery before removal. Disconnect the display (if possible) during the battery replacement. After replacement, the capacitor can be removed and the display can be reconnected.

Motor_hour_meter

Published:2009/7/19 22:01:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows an ICM7249 that is connected as an hours-in-use meter and is capable of displaying how many hours that line voltage is applied to the motor. This configuration will operate continuously for 21/2 years using a 3-V lithium cell. Without the display (which only needs to be connected when a reading is required), the circuit will operate for about 10 years. Harris Semiconductors Data Acquisition, 1991. p 11-89   (View)

Precision_frequency_counter

Published:2009/7/19 22:00:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows a simple 4-digit frequency counter using an ICM7217 and an ICM7207 (which provides the 1-s gating window and the STORE and RESET signals). The display reads hertz directly, as connected. With pin 11 of the ICM7027 connected to VDD, the gating time is 0. 1 s. This displays tens of hertz at the least significant digit. For shorter gating times, use a 6.5536-MHz crystal (0.01s with pin 11 connected to VD and 0.1 s with pin 11 open)   (View)

0_15V

Published:2009/7/19 21:54:00 Author:Jessie

Addition of 307 or 301A opamp and three inexpensive components to standard three-terminal voltage regulator provides programming capability from maximum terminal voltage down to zero. With adequate heatsink, output current can be up to 1A. Opamp A2 provides floating reference voltage to normally grounded common terminal of A1, with pot allowing ground to be positioned anywhere along voltage drop of 15V across pot. Unregulated negative supply is not critical, and drain is 10 mA.-W. G. Jung, Three Components Program Regulator from Maximum to Zero, EDN Magazine, May 20, 1977, p 126 and 128.   (View)

CURRENT_BOSTING_WITH_ELECTRONIC_SHUTDOWN

Published:2009/7/19 22:30:00 Author:Jessie

Circuit provides complete shutdown for both sections of National LM125 dual tracking regulator without affecting unregu-Iated inputs that may be powering additional equipment. Shutdown control signal is TTL-compatible, but regulator may be shut down at any desired level by adjusting values of R8 and R9. Control signal is used to short internal reference voltage of regulator to ground, thereby forcing positive and negative outputs to about +700 mV and +300 mV respectively. When shutdown signal is applied, Q4 draws current through R3 and D2, establishing voltage VR that starts current sourcesQ1 and Q2. Currents I1, I2, and I3 are then equal so both sides of regulator are shut down simultaneously.-T. Smathers and N. Sevastopoulos, LM125/LM126/LM127 Precision Dual Tracking Regulators, National Semiconductor, Santa Clara, CA, 1974, AN-82, p14.   (View)

Battery_powered_relative_humidity_signal_conditioner

Published:2009/7/19 22:29:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit produces a 0- to 1.00-V output in response to a sensed 0 to 100% relative humidity (RH), and operates from a 9-V battery. To calibrate, place the sensor in a 5% RH environment, and set the 5% RH trim for 50 mV at the output. Then, place the sensor in 90% RH and set the 90% trim for 900-mV output.Repeat as necessary. If the known RH environments are not available, the capacitance-versus-RH table in Fig. 12-35 can be used (although the table applies to an ideal sensor). The capacitor values can be built-up or directly dialed on a precision variable air capacitor (General Radio #722D). Linear Technology Corporation 1991 AN45-10   (View)
