0_66V_AT_2A

Published:2009/7/19 21:24:00 Author:Jessie

High-power circuit is suitable for low-voltage logic devices that require high current at supply voltages between 3 and 6V. Maximum output of 2A is obtained with 2N6057 Darlington pair for Q1. Single 2N3766 can be used if load is only 100mA. Q2 provides short-circuit protection for Q1, Since supply does not have to be adjusted down to 0V,negative supply for A2 can go to common negative of circuit. Optional connection to -3 V is used only when voltage range must go down to 0V.-W.G. Jung, IC Op-Amp Cookbook, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1974, p 157-158.   (View)

Precision_current_sourced_VFC

Published:2009/7/19 21:23:00 Author:Jessie

Figure 12-2A shows a current-sourced VFC that is similar to Fig. 12-1, except that the passive RC integrator is replaced by an active op-amp integrator.This increases the dynamic range down to 0 V, improves response time, and eliminates the nonlinearity error that is introduced by the limited compliance of the switched current source output. Figure 12-2B shows the operating range for various component values. Raytheon Linear Integrated Circuits 1989 p 7-7, 7-8.   (View)

Neutron beam from reactor strikes sample, producing diffraction pattern. Multielement glow tubes control sequence of operation in which length of data accumulation time at each angle of diffraction is determined by counting neutrons in incident beam. This eliminates counting errors due to reactor level fluctuations. Circuit drives key solenoids of electric type-writer to give printout of results.-E. W.

LOW_OHMS_ADAPTER

Published:2009/7/10 3:53:00 Author:May

The circuit consists of a 5-V regulator, constant-current source D1, D2, and Q1, and op amp gam stage U1. Power is provided by a 9-V battery whose output is regulated to + 5 Vdc by the 3-terminal regu-lator. The emitter of Q1 is always 0.6 V below the + 5-V line. Resistor R1 sets the current through both diodes D1 and D2 to 5mA. The resulting 0.6 Vdc across one of the multiturn trimmer potentiometers (R2 and R3), as selected by switch section S2A, sets the current through Q1 and the resistor-under-test. When R2 is selected, the test current is 1mA; when R3 is selected, the test current is 10mA. On the lower two ranges, ×1 and ×10, the voltage across resistance-under-test is applied directly to the DMM terminals. On the upper two ranges, op amp gain stage UI is switched into the circuit and the DMM mea-sures the voltage between op amp output pin 6 and the test resistor. When switch S2 is in position 3 (× 100) the current set by the constant-current source is 1 mA; the multiplying factor is ×100. When S2 is in position 4, ×1 000, the current is 10 mA and the multiplying factor is 100 x 10 = 1 000. Multiturn trimmer-potentiometer R6 adjusts the offset of the op amp so that, with no voltage across the resistor-under-test (i.e. with the measurement terminals short-circuited), the output is zero.   (View)

Also, the 10-kΩ resistor at pin 7 must be able to dissipate 1.2 or 4.8 W for short periods during accidental application of 110- or 220-V line voltages, respectively. The suggested crystal is a Statek CX-1V, the display is an LXD part number 38D8R02H, and the beeper is a muRata PKM24-4A0.   (View)
