Circuit uses two opamps to obtain necessary positive feedback for sustaining osdllation. RC network of first stage acts astuned circuit, permhting operation only at frequency determined by values of R and C. Pot R3 provides tuning over significant frequency range. Pot R8 controls amplitude of sine output. Zener X1 stabilizes amplitude of square output. Sine signal is applied to LM111 acting as limiter to provide desired square wave. Table gives values of C1 and C2 for five different frequency ranges.-E. M .Noll, Linear IC Principles, Experiments, and Projects, Howard W.Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1974, p 123-124. (View)

Compression and expansion ratios other than 2:1 can be achieved by the circuit shown. Rotation of the dual potentiometer causes the circuit hook-up to change from a basic compressor to a basic expander. In the center of rotation, the circuit is 1:1, has neither compression nor expansion. The (input) output transfer characteristic is thus continuously variable from 2:1 compression to 1:2 expansion. If a fixed compression or expansion ratio is desired, proper selection of fixed resistors can be used instead of the potentiometer. The optional threshold resistor will make the compression or expansion ratio deviate towards 1:1 at low levels. A wide variety of (input) output characteristics can be created with this circuit.

This circuit is similar to that of Fig. 8-19, except that the shunt field is placed across the rectified supply and the motor armature is placed in the SCR bridge. Thus, the field current is always in the same direction, but the armature current is reversible, so the direction of rotation is reversible (as determined by which transformer, T1 or T2, is selected through the switch). Again, motor speed is set by R1. (View)

In this circuit, Q1 through Q4 are triggered in diagonal pairs. The pair to be turned on is controlled by S1, which selects either T1 or T2 to receive a pulse from Q5. Current in the motor field is reversed by selecting either Q2 and Q3, or Q1 and Q4, for conduction. Because motor armature current is always in the same direction, the field current reverses in relation to the armature current, which thus reverses the direction of motor rotation. The setting of R1 determines the conduction angle of either Q1 through Q4 or Q2/Q3, thus setting the average motor voltage and thereby the speed. (View)

Tachometer driven by motor produces output voltage proportional to speed for application to CA3080A voltage comparator after rectification and filtering. Output of CA3080A is applied to upper CA3094A phase comparator that is receiving reference voltage from another CA3094A connected as ramp generator. Output of phase comparator triggers SCR in motor circuit. Amount of motor current is set by time du-ration of positive signal at pin 6, which in turn is determined by DC voltage applied to pin 3 of phase comparator by error detector. Circuit action serves to maintain constant motor speed at value determined by position of pot R. Input to ramp generator is pulsating DC voltage used to control rapid charging of C1 and slower discharging to form ramp.-E. M. Noll, Linear IC Principles, Experiments, and Projects, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1974, p 321-323. (View)

This multivibrator uses a CA3420 BiMOS op amp to provide improved frequency stability. The output frequency remains essentially independent of supply voltage. Because of the inherent buffering action of pin 6, frequency shift is approximately 0.2% when RL varies between zeroΩ to infinity. (View)

A single op amp, one fourth of an LM324 quad op amp, is configured as a standard inverting ampli-fter. At power up, a positive voltage is applied to the noninverting input of U1, via R3, forcing its output high. That high output travels along three paths. The first path is the tone output. Along the second path, by way of R5, that high is used as the drive signal for BZ1. In the third path, the high output of U1 is fed back, via R4, to the inverting input of U1. That forces U1's output to go low. And that low, when fed back to the inverting input of U1, causes the op amp output again to a high, and the cycle repeats itself. As configured, U1 provides a voltage gain of 4.7 (gain R4/R1).The outer ring of the piezo element is usually connected to the circuit ground. The large inner cir-cle serves as the driven area, and the small elon-gated section supplies the feedback signal. Resistor R5 sets BZ1's output-volume level. That level can be increased by decreasing R5 for example, to 470 Ω. To decrease the volume, increase R5 to about 2.2 KΩ, or so.Resistors R2 and R3 set the bias for op amp ,U1's positive input pin 3 to half of the supply-voltage level. That allows for a maximum voltage swing at U1's output. Although a quad op amp is specifted, almost any similar low cost single or dual op amp will work for U1a. (View)

The circuit illustrates the usefulness of the HA-5151 as a battery-powered monostable. In this cir-cuit, the ratio is set to.632, which allows the time constant equation to be reduced to:T = RtCtD2 is used to force the output to a defined state by clamping the negative input at +0.6 V. Trigger-ing is set by C1, R3, and D2. An applied trigger pulls the positive input below the clamp voltage, +0.6 V, which causes the output to change state. This state is held because the negative input cannot follow the change because of Rt· Ct. This particu-lar circuit has an output pulse width set at approxi-mately 100 μs. Use of potentiometers for Rt and variable capacitors for Ct will allow for a wide variation in T. (View)

A positive-going trigger pulse can be used to start the timing cycle with the circuit shown. In this design, trigger input pin 2 is biased to 6 V (1/2 VDD) by divider R1 and R2. Control input pin 5 is biased to 8 V (2/3 VDD) by the internal divider circuit. With no trigger voltage applied, point A is at 4 V (1/3 VDD). To turn the timer on, the voltage at point A has to be greater than the 6 V present on pin 2. Positive 5-V trigger pulse VI applied to the control input pin 5 is ac coupled through capacitor C1, adding the trigger voltage to the 8 V already on pin 5; this results in 13 V with respect to ground. The output pulse width is determined by the values of Rt and Ct.When voltage at point A is increased to 6.5 V, which is greater than the 6 V on pin 2, the timer cycle is initialized. The output of timer pin 3 increases, tuming off discharge transistor pin 7 and allowing Ct to charge through resistor Rt. When capacitor Ct charges to the upper threshold voltage of 8 V( 2/3 VDD), the flip-flop is reset and output pin 3 decreases. Capacitor Ct then discharges through the discharge transistor. The timer is not triggered again until another trigger pulse is applied to control input pin 5. (View)
