PHOTOVOLTAIC_ISOLATOR_WITH_FAST_RESET_1

Published:2009/7/16 23:23:00 Author:Jessie

The combination of a weak photovoltaic isolator pull-up and a strong programmable junction transistor pull-down leads to a very simple half-bridge FET or IGBT driver, which virtually guarantees that the devices won't crowbar the power supply. The device turning off will do so rapidly, but the device turning on will do so very slowly. A dead time is inherent in the circuit dynamics, so no additional circuitry is required to prevent a crowbar or shoot-through effect.   (View)

OP_AMP_CIRCUIT_DC_POWER_SUPPLY_CONNECTIONS

Published:2009/7/16 23:16:00 Author:Jessie

The dc power distribution of multistage, or multi-op-amp, filter circuits needs to be well conditioned to prevent either oscillation in one op amp or, because of poor power supply, decoupling between op amps. The figure shows the proper way to keep these problems under control. The capacitors marked CA are 0.1μF to 1μF, and must be mounted as close to the body as possible. A larger capacitor (marked CB), 100μF to 500μf, is connected between each power-supply line and ground, usually at the point of connection to the power supply. Note that these capacitors are polarity-sensitive; they must be connected into the circuit properly or they might be damaged.   (View)

VOLTAGE_FOLLOWER_STABILITY

Published:2009/7/16 23:12:00 Author:Jessie

A unity-gain voltage follower driving a capacitive load is prone to stability problems. Using an RC snubber network (RS-RC) allows capacitive loads, such as CL to be compensated without loss of load drive. The comparison of pulse response with and without the snubber network shows a dramatic reduction in overshoot. The top trace is without the snubber and the bottom trace is with the snubber.   (View)

LCD_AUXILIARY_BIAS_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/16 23:11:00 Author:Jessie

This single-cell boost converter can generate the low supply voltages commonly needed in pagers and other portable instruments with small, graphic LCDs. The first is a regulated 3.3 V at 100 mA, and the other is a regulated negative output, suitable for use as an LCD bias voltage. The overall efficiency is about 80 percent. The main 3.3-V supply is provided by a boost converter (IC1). The auxiliary bias voltage is provided by an extra flyback winding (the T1 secondary), and is regulated via Q1 and the low-battery detector internal to IC1. As the battery discharges, its declining terminal voltage causes a decline in the voltage in the flyback winding. At minimum battery voltage (0.8 V), the T1 primary sees 3.3 V-0.8 V2.5 V, so the 6:1 turns ratio produces 6(2.5)=15 V in the secondary. At maximum battery voltage (1.65 V), the primary sees only 1.5 V, producing 9.9 V in the secondary. MOSFET Q1 stabilizes this output by interrupting the secondary current, introducing the regulation necessary to generate a constant negative output. The regulator uses IC1's low-battery detector (a comparator/reference combination) as an on/off controller for Q1. In this circuit, the R1/R2 divider holds LB1 between Vctrl (normally 3.3 V) and the LCD bias output (normally -8 V). R1 and R2 are chosen so that LBO turns off when the LCD bias becomes too negative (and pulls the LB1 voltage below 1.25 V). Load current then causes the LCD bias to drift upward (toward 0 V) until LB1 exceeds 1.25 V, which causes Q1 to turn on again. A logic signal at the LCD ON terminal provides a means to enable and disable the negative output.   (View)

2_TO_6_V_CCFL_POWER_SUPPLY

Published:2009/7/16 23:04:00 Author:Jessie

The power supply shown operates from 2 to 6 V. It can drive a small (75-mm) CCFL over a 100-μA to 2-mA range. An LT1301 micropower dc-to-dc converter is used in conjunction with a current-driven Royer-class converter, consisting of T1, Q1, and Q2. When power is applied along with intensity-adjust voltage Va, the LT1301's Ilim pin is driven slightly positive, causing maximum switching current through the IC's internal switch pin (SW). L1 conducts current that flows from transformer T1's center tap, through the transistors, into L1. L1's current is taken in switched fashion to ground by the regulator's action. The Royer converter oscillates at a frequency primarily set by T1's characteristics (including its load) and the 0.068-μF capacitor. LT1301 drives L1, which sets the magnitude of the Q1-Q2 tail current, and thus creates T1's drive level. The 1N5817 diode maintains L1's current flow when the LT1301's switch is off. The 0.068-μF capacitor combines with L1's characteristics to produce sine-wave voltage drive at the Q1 and Q2 collectors. T1 provides voltage step-up and about 1400 V p-p appears at the transformer's secondary.   (View)

VOLTAGE_CONTROLLED_AMPLITUDE_LIMITER

Published:2009/7/16 23:02:00 Author:Jessie

Amplitude-limiting circuits are useful when a signal should not exceed a predetermined maxi-mum amplitude, such as when feeding an A/D or a modulator. A clipper, which completely removes the signal above a certain level, is useful for many applications, but there are times when it is not desirable to lose information. The circuit in this figure is a voltage-controlled breakpoint amplifier. When the input signal reaches a predetermined level (the breakpoint), the amplifier gain is reduced. As both the breakpoint and the gain for signals greater than the breakpoint are voltage programmable, this circuit is useful for systems that adapt to changing signal levels. Adaptive highlight compression finds uses in CCD video cameras, which have a very large dynamic range. Although this circuit was developed for video signals, it can be used to adaptively compress any signal within the 40-MHz bandwidth of the LT1256. The LT1256 video fader is connected to mix proportional amounts of input signal and clipped signal to provide a voltage-controlled variable gain. The clipped signal is provided by a discrete circuit consisting of three transistors. Q1 acts as an emitter follower until the input voltage exceeds the voltage on the base of Q2 (the breakpoint voltage, VBP). When the input voltage is greater than VBP Q1 is off and Q2 clamps the emitters of the two transistors to VBP plus a VBE. Q3, an NPN emitter follower, buffers the output and drops the voltage (VBE); thus, the dc level of the input signal is preserved. The breakpoint voltage at the base of Q2 must remain constant when this transistor is turning on or the signal will be distorted. The LT1363 maintains a low output impedance well beyond video frequencies and makes an excellent buffer.   (View)

STEP_UP_STEP_DOWN_REGULATOR

Published:2009/7/16 23:00:00 Author:Jessie

Adding a transformer to a step-up dc-to-dc regulator allows inputs of 20 V and higher to be accepted while operating in a step-down mode. The circuit handles inputs to 30 V, but is easily modifiable for high specific voltages. The transformer's 1:1 turns ratio simplifiers procurement by allowing the use of a standard, product (here, the Coiltronics CTX100-4P). Its 1:1 ratio also enhances stability by producing a duty cycle well below 50 percent. An ideal 1 : 1 transformer would generate Vin + Vout at the bottom of the primary, but real transformers produce somewhat higher voltages. That voltage appears across Q1, so Q1's minimum breakdown voltage should be approximately 2Vin +Vout. R2 limits the peak current (through Q1 and L1) to 0.33 A. The internal shunt regulator is a zener diode that is biased by R1 at approximately 2 mA. To cope with a wide range of input voltages, R1 can be replaced with a constant-current source.   (View)
