Low-power two-stage FET transmitter for 80-meter amateur band uses Pierce crystal oscillator that requires no output resonant ci.rcuit. DC milliammeter can be connected across 150-ohm resistor in gate circuit of second transistor to indicate strength of oscillator output signal, Resonant circuit of RF amplifier Q2 uses toroid L2 (56turns No, 24 enamel 13/16-in Permacor 57-1541 core) and two series-connected trimmers. Milliam-meter is connected across C8 when level of BF output voltage js to be measured.-E. M. Noll, FET Principles, Experiments, and Projects, Howard W.

Uses 709 or 741 opamps to generate 1850-Hz and 855-Hz tones simulta-neously, pulsed at 60-Hz line rate for duty cycle slightly below 50%. Used to measure linearity of high-frequency amplifiers in low-power stages of SSB transmitter. Each opamp is pow-ered by half-wave rectified AC, with opposite voltage polarities provided by 12.6-V CT 50-mA filament transformer, Tone frequency of each opamp is determined by symmetrical twin-T network. R1 sets level of 1850-Hz tone, and R3 controls 855-Hz tone. R2 mixes and balances tones. Diodes are 50-PIV 500-mA silicon.-B. Buus, A Technique for Burst Two-Tone Testing of Linear Amplifiers, QST, Aug. 1971, p17-21. (View)

Circuit provides accurate phasing of 51-polpair phonic/synchronous motor in facsimile transmitter, and can readily be adapted for similar applications. A 16-stage shift register loaded with 1 bit and connected as ring counter is clocked at 16 times required drive motor frequency. This gives pulse train with 1:15 mark-space ratio and repetition rate equal to drive frequency. Multiplexer used as single-pole 16-way switch can select output for any stage of shift register; each clockwise switch step gives 360/16 or 22.5° phase advance. Article describes circuit operation in detail-P. E. Baylis and R. J. Brush, Synchronous-Motor Phase Control, Wireless World, April 1976, p 62. (View)

The RGB blue box turns your PC's RGB-moni-tor screen blue at the flip of a switch. That is, it makes your computer display bright white text on a blue background, instead of the usual low-intensity white on black. The RGB blue box connects between your IBM PC color graphics adapter, or equivalent, and your RGB color monitor. By flipping a switch, you choose between two modes. One mode passes the signal from the PC to the monitor unaltered; the other transforms it to make text more readable. The monitor has four TTL-level inputs-red, green, blue, and intensity-and it interprets disconnected wires as on. That's why the screen turns white if you disconnect the monitor from the computer, and blue if you disconnect only the blue line. Instead of just discarding the blue signal,the blue box reroutes it to the intensity input. As a result, most of the text colors come out intensified.

Modulating wave is first applied to input audio phase shifter for generating audio components that are equal in magnitude but differ 90°in phase. After amplification in CA3018, these audio components are applied to CA3050 double-balanced modulator. SPST and SPDT switch settings determine which sideband will appear at output of modulator. Carrier is generated by FET crystal oscillator for application through RF phase-shift network to pins 1 and 13 of modulator. Both carrier and modulating frequencies are suppressed in balanced output circuit of modulator, leaving only desired sideband. Resonant output transformer provides low-impedance feed to succeeding linear amplifier. Designed for 160-meter band.-E. M. Noll, Linear IC Principles, Experiments, and Projects, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1974, p 356-357. (View)

Circuits to interface the Si7135 directly with two popular microprocessors are shown in Figs. 18-2a and b. The 8080/8048 and the MC6800 families with 8-bit words need to have polarity, overrange, and underrange multiplexed onto the digit 5 word. In each case, the microprocessor can instruct the ADC when to begin a measurement and when to hold this measurement. The Si7135 is designed to work from ±5 V supplies. However, if a negative supply is not available, it can be generated using 2 capacitors, and an inexpensive Si7660 or Si7661 IC, as shown in Fig. 18-2c. (View)

Programmable 100-hour timer with display. The 8260 on the right uses the carryout gate to generate a t -second clock from the 60-hertz line. The diodes on the time base input rectify the input signal and alternately clamp and release the internal pull-up resistor at pin 14. The input network depends on the amplitude of the 60-hertz signal available. The internal oscillators are disabled with a t K resistor at pin 13. The second and third 8260s are programmable with thumbwheel switches up to 59 seconds and 59 minutes. The carryout of each divider drives the next counter. The 8250 was chosen to give the maximum count of 99 hours. All request pins are tied together and back to the 10K output pull-up resistors at the thumbwheels. The timing cycle begins by pressing the pushbutton. The 7045 provides a counter chip pulse direct drive to the 7-segment LEDs. Timing resolution can be increased to hundredths of a second by substituting 8250s for the initial stages and using the 60-hertz line to generate a 100-hertz clock (courtesy Intersil, Inc.). (View)

With this dataselector, only one RS-232 port is used to connect two RS-232 devices (i.e., printer, plotter, etc.) with a mini- or microcomputer. The operation is very simple. Power on will reset FFI (QFFI = Low), which enables gates N1, NS, and N7. Now communication between computer and device B is possible. Detection of the switch command, i.e., Control B character = CHR$(2), selectable with wirewrap pins, on the parallel outputs of the UART (IM 6402 or equivalent) will set: QFFI= High. Gates N2, N5, and N7 are open, so device A is connected with the computer until Control B character is detected again.
Transistor Q1 converts RS-232 levels to TTL levels while two LEDs indicate whether device A or B is linked. The baud-rate generator provides the 16 x clock needed for the UART. Any baud rate ranging from 50 to 19200 can be selected. Manual control of the selector is available with toggleswitch S1.

This circuit is an improved version of the circuit shown in Fig. 8-21. The hysteresis effect is eliminated by the addition of two diodes and the 5.1 -kΩ resistor. The RC network across the triac is a snubber to prevent line transients from accidentally firing the triac. The circuit operates from a 120-V 60-Hz source, and can control up to 1000 W of power to incandescent bulbs (but not fluorescents). (View)
