TOUCH_OPERATED_CODE_PRACTICE_OSCILLATOR

Published:2009/7/12 20:43:00 Author:May

A touch-operated CPO is shown in the figure. The gates of IC1-a are biased high through the two 22-MΩ resistors (R1 and R2), keeping its output low. Gates IC1-b and IC1-c are connected in an audio oscillator circuit that can operate only when pin 5 of IC1-b is high. The last gate of the 4093, IC1-d, adds isolation to the oscillator's circuit and drives the speaker (SPKR1). Touching the key paddle and ground plane lowers IC1-a's input gate voltage to near zero, allowing the output at pin 3 to go high. The tone generator then turns on and sends out an audio note. The touch key paddle and ground plane can be made from a circuit board or any other conductible material. Note that the ground plane should lie flat for a hand rest and the key paddle should be positioned for ease of touch.   (View)

PLL_CODE_PRACTICE_OSCILLATOR

Published:2009/7/12 20:41:00 Author:May

This CPO usesa 567 phase-locked loop, IC1, as the variable tone generator. The oscillator's frequency is set by R6, and the frequency range can be changed by selecting a different-value capacitor for C5. To lower the oscillator's frequency range, make the value of C5 larger, and to increase the frequency range, reduce C5. A general-purpose 2N3906 PNP transistor, Q1, supplies power to the 567 through pin 4 each time that the CW key is closed. Meanwhile, Q2, a general-purpose 2N3904 NPN transistor, buffers the oscillator's output and drives the speaker. Potentiometer R7 sets the output volume.   (View)

MORSE_CODE_OSCILLATOR

Published:2009/7/12 20:38:00 Author:May

The circuit is built around a 555 oscillator (IC1) and an LM386 audio amplifier (IC2). The 555 circuit is an astable oscillator, with the chip output retriggering the circuit. When the key (S1) is pressed, it activates the circuit. The 555 oscillates at a frequency determined by R1, R2, and C1. Potentiometer R2 is used to adjust the tone frequency of the oscillator. Some of the output current of IC1 is coupled to IC2 via a 10-°F capacitor, C2, so that it will be sufficient to drive a loudspeaker. Because the circuit has no gain control, the volume depends on the size and wattage of the speaker.   (View)

Using a Signetics NE602 in a varactor-tuned front end, the circuit of a shortwave receiver can be very simple and yet give high performance. This circuit also uses a ceramic filter as a sensitivity-determining device, two IF stages, AGO, and an audio amplifier. It has a sensitivity of under 1μV. The table shows coil data for the frequencies from 5 to 16 MHz. The values C18, C19, and C23 depend on the frequency range chosen.   (View)

REFLEX_RADIO_RECEIVER

Published:2009/7/17 2:28:00 Author:Jessie

The RF signal is passed from the antenna through C1 to the tuned circuit made up of L1 and C2．Oneend of L2 feeds the RF signal to the base of Q1 for amplification and the other end ties to the junction ofR1and R2 to supply bias to the transistor．A 0.02-μF capaotor，C3，places the“D”end of L1 at RE ground. The amplified RF signal is fed through C6 to a two-diode doubler/rectifier circuit and then on to thevolume control，R6．The wtper of R6 feeds the detected audio signal through C9 to the junction of R1，R2，and the“D”end of u．The“D”end of L2 is at RF ground，but not AF ground，allowing the AF signal tobe passed through L2 to the base of Q1 for amplification. The junction of the 2.5-mH choke and T1 is placed at RF ground through C5. The amplified audio is fed from this junction to the mput ofthe 386 audioamplifier，U1，to drive the 4 8-Ω speaker．The single transistor has performed a dual duty by amplifying the RF and AM signals at the same time．   (View)
