AUDIO_CONTROLLED_LAMP_DIMMER

Published:2009/7/15 22:17:00 Author:Jessie

The audio input to J1 lights low-voltage lamp I1. This light illuminates light-dependent resistor R3 (100 KΩ to 1 MΩ dark resistance) and modulates the intensity of the lamp plugged into SO1. L1 and C1 suppress RFI caused by the triac phase-control circuit. D1 and TR1 are a diac and a triac, respectively, and are the types used in common lamp dimmers.   (View)

LOW_DRIFT_MICROPOWER

Published:2009/7/15 22:05:00 Author:Jessie

Uses JFET biased slightly below pinchoff in combination with micropower opamp to convert zero-temperature-coefficient drain current to correspondingly stable reference voltage. Additional JFET J2 makes operation independent of value of unregulated input. Output impedance is low. For higher output impedance, reference voltage can be taken from wiper of R2, but buffering could then be required. R1, is adjusted to compensate for temperature coefficient arising from opamp supply current.-N. Sevastopoulos and J.

SINGLE_PULSE_SELECTOR

Published:2009/7/15 21:43:00 Author:Jessie

Circuit is used to select any desired single pulse from wavetrain continuously applied to input terminal. When enable pulse (not exceeding width of input pulse) is applied, flip-flop FF1 clocks on leading edge of next input pulse and FF2 clocks on trailing edge. Output pulse thus has same width as pulses in input wavetrain. Edge-triggering characteristics of D flip-flops prevent operation if they are enabled during input pulse; in this case, next input pulse is delivered as output.-S. J.
