PINK_NOISE_GENERATOR

Published:2009/6/26 2:12:00 Author:May

PINK_NOISE_GENERATOR
A reverse-biased pn junction of a 2N2712 transistor is used as a noise generator. The second 2N2712 is an audio amplifier. The 0.005 μF capacitor across the amplifier output remove s some high-frequency components to simulate pink noise more closely. The audio output may be connected to high-impedance earphones or to a driver amplifier for speaker listening. (View)

AUDIO_NOISE_GENERATOR

AUDIO_NOISE_GENERATOR
This simple circuit generates both white and pin noise. Transistor Q1 is used as a zener diode. The normal base-emitter junction is reverse-biased and goes into zener breakdown at about 7 to 8 volts. The zener noise current from Q1 floirs into the base of Q2 such that an output of about 150 millivolts of white noise is available. To convert the white noise to pink, a filter is required which provides a 3 dB cut per octave as the frequency increases.Since such a filter attenuates the noise considerably an amplifier is used to restore the output level. Transistor Q3 is this amplifier and the pink noise filter is connected as a feedback network. between collector and base in order to obtain the required characteristic by controlling the gain-yersus-fre quency of the transistor. The output of transistor Q3 is thus the pink noise required and is fed to the relevant output socket. (View)

ASTABLE_OSCILLATOR
Before power is applied, the input and output are at ground potential and capacitor C is discharged. On power-on, the output goes high (VDD) and C charges through R until Vis reached. the output then goes low (VSS). C is now discharged through R until Vn is reached.The output then goes high and charges C towards Vp through R. Thus input A alternately swings between Vp and Vn as the output goes high and low. This circuit is self-starting at power-on. (View)

SOUND_EFFECT_GENERATOR

Published:2009/6/25 21:10:00 Author:May

SOUND_EFFECT_GENERATOR
This waveshape generator is basically a slow running oscillator with variable attack and decay. A variable amplitude (high impedance) output is available via the 2 M potentiometer. B shows an add-on circuit which should be used if a low impedance output is required. Some of the output waveforms that can be produced are shown in C. (View)

MUSICAL_CHIME_GENERATOR

Published:2009/6/25 21:09:00 Author:May

MUSICAL_CHIME_GENERATOR
The circuit is that of a multiple feedback bandpass filter. A short click (pulse), makes it ring with a frequency which is its natural reso-nance frequency. Oscillations die away expo-nentially and closely resemble many naturally occuring percussive or plucked sounds. The higher the Q the longer the decay time constant. H igh frequencyre sonance s re semble chimes, lower frequencies sound like claves or bongos. Several circuits, all with different tuning, driven by pulses from a rhythm generator can produce an interesting pattern of sounds. (View)
