DUAL_5_V

Published:2009/7/16 22:10:00 Author:Jessie

Provides two 5-V regulated supplies for frequency counter, operating either from 9-VDC outputs of AC supply or from 12-VDC auto battery. Splitting of supply divides current demand so regulators operate well below maximum ratings and provide decoupling between sections of load.-J.

RADAR_DETECTOR

Published:2009/7/16 22:09:00 Author:Jessie

A simple detector of radar signals uses the junctions of the input transistors of an LM1458 op amp as RF detectors. The leads of C1 act as an antenna and should be about 0.4 long measured from the IC package. Detected audio components are further amplified by IC1A and IC1B, and drive a piezo transducer. Mount the circuit so that incident RF energy will not be blocked.   (View)

ELECTROMAGNETIC_LEVITATOR

Published:2009/7/16 22:04:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit is used to levitate a steel ball as a demonstration of levitation via an electromagnet. An infrared photodetector is used to sense the position of a steel ball and control the current in the electromagnet via a feedback loop. An infrared emitter and detector mounted across from each other create an invisible beam that passes slightly below the coil. As the object rises toward the electro-magnet, it begins to block the beam. When the beam becomes blocked, the output of the detector is reduced, which, in turn, reduces the current in the electromagnet's coil. The reduced current weakens the magnetic field, the object begins to drop, and the detector once again sees more of the beam.This causes the circuit to increase the magnetic field, and the cycle repeats as the object is attracted upward again. The circuit is designed go that eventually an equilibrium is reached where the magnetic attraction exactly balances the force of gravity pulling on the object. The object then remains perfectly suspended in the infrared beam's path with no visible means of support!   (View)

DUAL_SUPPLY

Published:2009/7/16 22:00:00 Author:Jessie

The key idea is that in a dual-supply powered circuit, ground is midway between the positive and negative supply voltages. Unfortunately, ordinary voltage regulators can't do the job. The reason is that they cart only source current, not sink it, and the ground terminal in a dual supply might have to either source or sink current, depending on which half of the load is drawing more current at the time. In the circuit, R1 and R2 divide the input voltage in half. Op amp U1 reproduces that voltage at the ground output terminal by making either Q1 or Q2 conduct as much as necessary. Capacitors Ct and C2 hold the output voltage steady when the load changes suddenly. Diode D1 is present to protect the circuit's input from reversed polarity by blowing the fuse of the main power supply. If your power supply has no fuse, place D1 in series with the circuit. That will afford the same protection with only slightly reduced regulation and voltage output.   (View)

Built around a 555 timer IC, this pulse generator can be built into a probe for logic troubleshooting. R11 is frequency controlled and gives a range of about 5 to 200 Hz. C2 can be reduced for higher frequencies. S2 selects one shot or pulse operators. Q1 and Q2 provide a fast rise-time pulse, which acts as a clipper amplifier. Q4 acts as a regulator. The supply can be anything from about 4.5 to 18 Vdc. LED1 is an indicator that shows circuit operation.   (View)

NEON_TUBE_HIGH_VOLTAGE_POWER_SUPPLY

Published:2009/7/16 21:58:00 Author:Jessie

Power for the circuit is supplied by a step-down transformer (T2) and a full-wave bridge rectifier (BR1), which convert 117-Vac to 12-Vdc. Capacitor C3 acts as a filter. The heart of the circuit is a Schmitt-trigger hex inverter, U1. Capacitor C1, resistor R1, and potentiometer R2 are connected to one section of the inverter, U1-a, to form an oscillator that runs at approximately 15 kHz (because U1 is a Schmitt trigger, the output square wave is very clean). Adjusting R2 varies the frequency. The output of the oscillator is fed into the remaining five inverters (U1-b through U1-f), which are connected in parallel to create a buffer that is capable of increasing the drive current of the oscillator. The square-wave output is used to drive the switching transistor (Q1), which, in turn, switches the primary windings of the ferrite-core transformer (T1). Approximately 500-Vac at 15 kHz are output from the secondary of the transformer. T1 is made from a ferrite pot core. Wind 500 turns of #30-gauge wire for the secondary. Coat it with insulating varnish and add a layer of insulating tape, over which a 20-turn winding of #22 wire is wound to form the primary winding.   (View)

IMPROVED_CLIPPING_CIRCUIT_DESIGN

Published:2009/7/16 21:58:00 Author:Jessie

Op amps A and D form unity-gain buffer amplifiers. Op amps B and C compare the input voltage (Vin) with the reference voltages (VHi and VLo). These references set the high and low clipping levels of the circuit. When the input voltage lies in the range (VHi-VLo), the outputs of the comparators make both diodes (D1 and D2) reverse-biased. As a result, the circuit's output Vout follows the input voltage. When the input voltage exceeds the value VHi op amp B's output goes negative, forward-biasing D1 and thus reducing V1 the voltage at the invertinginput of op amp B. The circuit reaches an equilibrium condition at which Vout=V1=VHi Similarly, when the input voltage goes below the value VLo, op amp C's output goes positive, forward-biasing D2. This increases the voltage at V1, At the equilibrium condition, Vout=V1=VLo. The circuit's output continues to follow the input for about 2μs, even after the input voltage crosses the reference voltages, because of the slew rates of the op amps.The supplies (5V≤V+≤15V, -5V≥V-≥-15 V).   (View)
