FREE_RUNNING_STAIRCASE_WAVE_GENERATOR

Published:2009/6/24 2:55:00 Author:May

This free-running staircase generator uses all four of the amplifiers, which are available in one LM3900 package. Amp 1 provides the input pulses that pump up the staircase via resistor R1. Amp 2 does the integrate and hold function and also supplies the output staircase waveform. Amps 3 and 4 provide both a compare and a one-shot multivibrator function. Resistor R4 is used to sample the staircase output voltage and to compare it with the power supply voltage (V+) via R3. When the out-put exceeds approximately 80% of V+ the connection of Amps 3 and 4 causes a 100-ps reset pulse to be generated. This is coupled to the integrator (AMP2) via R2 and causes the staircase output voltage to fall to approximately 0 V. The next pulse out of Amp 1 then starts a new stepping cycle.   (View)

WIDE_RANGE_OSCILLATOR_FREQUENCY_RANGE_OF_5000_TO_1

Published:2009/6/24 2:54:00 Author:May

Timing resistor R may be adjusted to any value between 10 K and 50 M to obtain a fre-quency range from 400 kHz to 100 Hz. Return-ing the timing resistor to the collector of Q1 ensures that Q1 draws its base current only from the timing capacitor Ct. The timing capacitor recharges when the transistors are off, to a voltage equal to the base emitter volt-age of Q2 plus the base emitter drops ofQ1 and Q2. The transistors then start into conduction. Capacitor Cs is used to speed up the transition. A suitable value would be in the region of 100 pF.   (View)

TUNABLE_SINGLE_COMPARATOR_OSCILLATOR

Published:2009/6/24 2:53:00 Author:May

Varying the amount of this comparator circuit's hysteresis makes it possible to vary output frequencies in the 740-Hz to 2.7-kHz range smoothly. The amount of hysteresis to-gether with time constant R6C1 determines how much time it takes for C1 to charge or discharge to the new threshold after the output voltage switches.   (View)

STEPPED_TRIANGLE_WAVEFORM_GENERATOR

Published:2009/6/24 2:53:00 Author:May

Two gates of a 4011 quad two-input NAND gate (U1) are connected in a pulse generator circuit.The square output at pin 4 of U1-b, connects to the clock input, pin 14, of a 4017 decade counter IC (U2). For each input clock pulse, the 4017 takes a single step. Because the 4017 counter is set up to count ten and then repeat the count, the stepped output frequency will only be Ho of the clock fre-quency. For a 100-Hz output, the clock generator must operate at 1 kHz.The 4017's positive output pulses begin at pin 3 and progress to pin 11 in a serial manner. The first output pulse, at pin 3, passes through Dl and R8 and appears across R4 to produce the first step up the triangle. The second pulse is routed through D2 and R7 to produce the second step. The out-puts at pins 10 and I form the top of the waveform and outputs at pins 5, 6, 9, and 11 produce the down steps.   (View)

PHASE_SHIFT_OSCILLATOR

Published:2009/6/24 2:45:00 Author:May

A single transistor makes a simple phase shift oscillator. The output is a sine wave with distortion of about 104. The sine wave purity can be increased by putting a variable resistor (25 ohms) in the emitter lead of Q1 (x). The resistor is adjusted so the circuit is only just oscillating, then the sine wave is relatively pure. Operating frequency may be varied by putting a 10 K variable resistor In serles with R3，Or by changing C1，C2，and C3．Making C1，2， 3 equal to 100 nF will halve the operatingfrequency，Operating frequencycanalso bevoltage controlled by a FET In serles with R3，Or optically controlled by an LDR In serles with R3．   (View)

SURF_MAN_SOUND_GENERATOR

Published:2009/6/24 2:41:00 Author:May

Three low-frequency oscillators (IC1d, e, f) are used to simulate wave action of the surf. Q1 is an emitter-base junction used as a diode noise generator, biased by dc derived from oscillator ICl-c.The noise is fed into two voltage-controlled filters R22, R23, C12, C13, with D3 and D4 as tuning elements. The low-frequency oscillator signals randomly vary the filters, therefore, the spectrum of the noise signal fed through them. This simulates the sound of a surf.   (View)

FEEDBACK_OSCILIATOR

Published:2009/6/24 2:40:00 Author:May

Circuit oscillates because the transistor shifts the phase of the signal 180° from the base to the collector. Each of the RC networks in the circuit is designed to shift the phase 60°at the frequency of oscillation for a total of 180°. The appropriate values of R and C for each network is found from f = 1/2√3πRC); that equation allows for the 60°phase shift required by the design.   (View)

DUAL_TONE_GENERATOR

Published:2009/6/24 2:39:00 Author:May

Two 555 oscillator/timers are configured similarly as audio oscillators, with each oscillator feeding a separate speaker.A dual 100-kQ potentiometer is use to tune the two oscillators simultaneously. The oscillators' frequency range is controlled by a dual-transistor switch, which selects the timing capacitor for both oscillators. Although the circuit only shows two range-switching circuits, any number can be added by simply duplicating the two-transistor switching circuit.   (View)

PHASE_SHIFT_OSCILLATOR

Published:2009/6/24 2:33:00 Author:May

ircuit uses a simple RC network to pro-duce an exceptionally shrill tone from a minia-ture speaker. With the parts values shown, the circuit oscillates at a frequency of 3.6 kHz and drives a miniature 2 1/2 speaker with ear-piercing volume. The output waveform is a square wave with a width of 150 pts, sloping rise and fall times, and a peak-to-peak amplitude of 4.2 volts (when powered by 9 volts). Current drain of the oscillator is 90 mA at 9 volts, and total power dissipation at this voltage is 0.81 watt, which is well below the 1.25 watts the 14-pin version will absorb (at room temperature) before shutting down.   (View)
