Lissajous patterns on crt form numerals 0 to 9 that appear to be handwritten. Vertical and horizontal waveshapes used to produce a number are continuously applied to pair of number gates. Gates open whom excited by high-voltage r-f transformer, permitting waveforms to pass through to crt defection plates and create problem on screen. All waveshapes are derived from 60-cps centertapped sine-wave source. Reliability is insured through use of passive elements (resistors, capacitors, and diodes) and standard techniques of dipping, limiting, and/or phase shifting to generate required waveshapes.-R. L. White, Forming Handwritten. Like Digits on CRI Display, Electronics,32:11, p 138-140. (View)

In battery systems where high load current is required intermittently and the system must remain in standby mode between uses, a linear regulator with micropower quiescent current and shut-down capability is needed. These situations arise in powering laptop disk drives, portable radio transmission modems, and peripheral motors, which are intermittently used. The LT1529 has 3 A current capability, 50 μA quiescent current, and just 16μA shutdown current. As shown in the circuit and chart, the LT1529-5 is a low-component-count solution with a very low dropout voltage of 0.6 V at 3-A output current. This low dropout is ideal for battery-powered systems in which extracting the maximum energy from the battery is important. In dropout, the output voltage will decrease smoothly, following the input. The quiescent current of the LT1529 increases only slightly in dropout, unlike the situation with many other low-dropout PNP regulators. (View)

The circuit operates as follows: U1A and U1B form a triangle waveform generator, using R6 to offset the output so that it is a positive-going signal. The amplitude is set by R2 and R3, and the ramp's rate of rise is set by R1 and C1. Using the values shown, the output has an amplitude of >1 V with rise and fall times of 0.5 ms, giving a total zeta duration of 1 ms. U1C provides an inverted output of U1B. When the RESET pin on U3 is triggered, its Q1 output goes low and the short is removed across C1 by one half of the analog switch (U4). At this time, the output of U1A will be negative and the output of U1B will start to ramp up. During this time, the output of the circuit is taken from U1B via the other half of the analog switch. When the ramp reaches its positive voltage threshold, the output of U1A goes positive and U1B will start to ramp down. The output of U1A is taken via U2A and U2B (both inverting Schmitt triggers with special input circuitry that protects the input from negative voltages and allows them to level-shift) to the CLOCK input of U3. It is also taken to the analog switch, which now takes the output of the circuit from U1C (which has an output ramping up from the negative maximum to 0V). At 0 V, the output of U1A will go negative, resulting in the Q1 output of U3 going high and again shorting C1. This produces 0V output until the next trigger input resets U3 and the cycle is repeated. (View)

The regulator generates a 5-V output from a single lithium-ion cell. Initially, the lithium-ion cell is at 4.2 V, which is greater than the 3.75-V undervoltage-lockout (UVL) limit of the LM2587 Simple Switcher. Once it starts up, the boost circuit will continue to regulate-even when the battery voltage drops lower than the UVL limit. The level that the input voltage can drop to depends on the maximum load current desired. Of course, the source can be any type of battery-three alkaline, four NiCd, or even two lithium batteries. When power is applied to the circuit, the 10-kΩ resistor charges up the 47-μF input capacitor and supplies the startup current to the LM2587. After startup, the LM2587 input and the input capacitor draw current frorrt the switch node through the 1N914B boot-strap diode. When that happens, the IC input pin gets charged up to the output voltage minus a diode drop. In the circuit, with a 5-V output, the IC input voltage is 4.5 V after startup. It stays at 4.5 V-even when the input voltage drops to below 3.75 V. The input voltage can drop to 1.25 V when the regulator is supplying 250 mA. At 2.4 V, the regulator is 84 percent efficient if the 1N914B bootstrap diode is replaced with a 1N5817 Schottky diode. (View)

Figure 1 shows a circuit designed to deliver 2.5 V from a 3.3-V source with 5 V available for the control voltage. Figure 2 shows the response to a load step of 200 mA to 4.0 A. The circuit is configured with a 0.33-μF ADJUST-pin bypass capacitor. The performance without this capacitor is shown in Fig. 3. The difference in performance is the reason for providing the ADJUST pin on the fixed-voltage devices. A substantial savings in expensive output decoupling capacitance can be realized by adding a small ceramic capacitor at this pin. (View)
