This circuit requires low noise, low and stable offset voltages, high open loop gain, and high speed. These requirements are met by the HA-5147. The standard variations of this circuit can easily be implemented using the HA-5147. For example, hysteresis can be generated by adding R1 to provide small amounts of positive feedback. The circuit becomes a pulse width modulator if Vref and the input signal are left to vary. Although the output drive capability of this device is excellent, the optional buffering circuit can be used to drive heavier loads, preventing loading effects on the amplifier. (View)

With both the ignition and the car lights on, piezo transducer BZ1 draws no current and remains silent. With only the ignition on, diode D1 is reverse-biased and so prevents current ftow through BZ1.
However, when the lights are on and the ignition is off, the transducer becomes energized and sounds to alert you to turn the lights off. With the ignition off and the lights on, D2 is reverse-biased, preventing current from flowing to the ignition.Resistor R1 prevents a short circuit when the ignitionison is on. (View)

Circuit Notes
This simple AM circuit uses a 561B. There's no inductance/capacitance tuning circuit.The 365 pF capacitor connected between pins 2 and 3 does a11 the tuning. The circuit needs a good outside antenna and a solid ground. And if you want to further improve operation, stick a broadband amplifier in front of the receiver. Just make sure the input voltage does not climb over 0.5 volt rms. (View)

The 555 is a monostable that wants a negative-going trigger. If the pulse you're feeding it with is positive-going, you can run it through an inverter made up of either an inverting gate or, if you're tight on space, a single transistor. Both ways are shown. The circuits shown in Fig. 25-9b are edge detectors as well, and are usually referred to as half monostables, since they can't be used in every application. The width of the output pulse is deter-mined by the RC value, but there are a few rules governing their use:
.The input pulse has to be wider than the output pulse.The input pulse can't be glitchy. The circuit can't be retriggered faster than the RC time (View)

The difference among the MAX706R,S, and T is the reset-threshold levels, which are 2.63 V, 2.93 V and 3.08 V, respectively. All have active-low reset output signals. The MAX706P reset output is active-high with a 2.63-V threshold. The MAX708R/S/T are identical to the corresponding MAX706, except that the MAX708 series does not have a watchdog, but provides both RESET and RESET outputs.

With this basic circuit, the input current is fed directly into the summing node (pin 2) and the op-amp output changes to extract the same current from the summing node through R1. The scale factor of this circuit is R1 volts per amp. That is, the output voltage is equal to the input current timesR1. The only conversion error in this circuit is Ibias, which is summed algebraically with IIN. The basic circuit can be used to measure current directly because: IIN =VOUT/R1. For example, if VOUT is 1 V (or 1000mV), and R1 is 100 Ω,IN = 10mA. (View)

A circuit (such as Fig. 1-A) can be tested by applying a pulse at the input and monitoring the output. This can be done with a pulser (or signal generator) at the in-put and a probe (or scope) at the output. For example, pulses with ECL levels can be applied at the ECL-gate input and TTL pulses can be monitored at the output.If TTL pulses are absent at pin 7 of the 4805 comparator, check for pulses at pins 2 and 3. This procedure will isolate the problem to the gate or to the comparator. (View)

As shown in the figure 3-6,the astable multi-vibrator in the circuit consists of a 555 circuit, VT1,VT2, R1,R2,RP1 and C1.From the picture we can see that the capacitor C1 has a separate charge and discharge looped, the adjustment of RP1 will change its charge and discharge time constant instead of its oscillator frequency. Therefore, before C1 gets a 2/3 threshold level of VDD, pin 3willstayin high level, that is, during t1, VT2 will conduct, and VT1 will be saturated and conducted, thus, RVT1 presents a weak impedance, the charge time
t1=0.693(RVT1+R1+RP1left) C1
t2 =0.693(R2+RP1right) C1
T=t1+t2
=0.693((RVT1+R1+RP1) C1
DK=t1/T
then, adjust RP1 and the duty cycle can be limited in between 2%~98% with an unchanged period.
