AF modulating signal is applied to gates of matched FETs in push-pull through T1 having accurately center-tapped secondary, and RF carrier is applied to sources in parallel through C3. Carrier is canceled in output circuit, leaving two sidebands. R3 is adjusted to correct for un-balance in circuit components.-R. P. Turner, FET Circuits, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1977, 2nd Ed., p 90-91. (View)

Uses half of LM339N or LM3302N quad comparator. With no modulation signal, output is symmetrical square wave generated by one of comparators. Constant-amplitude triangle wave is generated at inverting input of second comparator, and is relatively independent of supply voltage and frequency changes. Modulating signal varies switching points to produce duty-cycle modulated wave for such applications as class D amplification for servo and audio systems.-H. F. Stearns, Voltage Comparator Makes a Duty-Cycle Modulator, EDN Magazine, June 5, 1975, p76-77. (View)

Expression approximating sine function from 0 to 900is generated by function fitting and duplicated by using AD534L analog multiplier and appropriate close.tolerance (0.1%) resistors. Accuracy of sine wave is within ±0.5% at all points. Linearly increasing voltage of triangle develops rising sinusoidal output. Conversely, linearly decreasing input generates mirror of rising sinusoids. Increasing triangle waveform, then bringing it back to zero again, completes full cycle of sine-wave out-put.-R.

Gives constant-amplitude output over input frequency range of 2-100 kHz. Input signal from SN74121 IC is 300-ns pulse that drives basic sawtooth generator Tr1-Tr2. Resulting sawtooth waveform is amplified by opamp A1 of MC3401P four-opamp package and fed to A2 which acts as comparator for amplitude-sensing, 25K threshold-setting pot is adjusted for maximum linearity of amplitude versus frequency, Rectangular-wave output ofA2 is filtered to give control voltage that is shifted in level by A3 and D1 to meet input voltage requirements of Tr2. Desired sawtooth output appears at source of Tr3.-J. N. Paine, Constant AmplitudeSawtooth Generator, Wireless World, 0ct.1975, p 473. (View)

This circuit shows how an LT1005 multifunction regulator can be used to control operation of higher-voltage motors. The circuit is similar to that of Fig. 8-6, except that a 1000-μF capacitor is placed at the regulator to filter transients that are generated by motor switching. When the tach output calls for power, the LTl005 comes on, and allows current to flow through the motor. This forces the LTl005 input toward ground for the duration of the turn-on time. The advantage of this circuit over that of Fig. 8-6 is that higher-voltage motors (up to 20 V) can be used. (View)

Motorola MC1596G double-balanced modulator has carrier input between pins 8 and 7 and modulation between pins 1 and 4. Balancing carrier-null circuit, also connected between pins 1 and 4, contributes to excellent carrier rejection at output. For unbalanced output, ground one of push-pull output terminals. Requires two supplies.-E. M. Noll, Linear IC Principles, Experiments, and Projects, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1974, p 138-139. (View)

The flip-flop is clocked by the LSB of the higher-order counter so if this digit is unblanked the Q output of the flip-flop goes high and turns on the NPN transistor, inhibiting leading zero blanking on the lower-order counter (courtesy Intersil, Inc.).

This circuit uses a CA3240E to sense small currents flowing between contact points on a touch plate, which consists of a PC board metalization grid. When the On plate is touched, current flows between the two halves of the grid, and causes a positive shift in the output voltage (pin 7) of the CA3240E. These positive transitions are fed into the CA3079, which is used as a latching circuit and zero-crossing triac driver. When pin7 of the CA3240 is positive, the triac and lamp are on. The opposite occurs when the Off plate is touched, and pin 1 of the CA3240 is positive. (View)

Opamp, UJT, and two TTL packages generate pulse whose delay, following sync pulse, is con-trolled by amplitude of analog input signal at time of sync pulse. Opamp precharges timing capacitor to level depending on analog signal. Sync pulse disconnects opamp, after which timing capacitor charges up to UJT firing point .UJT output pulse then resets circuit, giving de-sired delayed output pulse through 9601 mono MVBR,-J.
