PRECISION，FAST_SETTLING，LOW_PASS_FILTER

Published:2009/7/2 3:02:00 Author:May

This circuit is useful where fast signal acquisition and high precision are required, as in electronic scales. The filter's time constant is set by the 2 K ohm resistor and the 1 μF capacitor until comparator No, 1 switches. The time constant is then set by the 1.5 M ohm resistor and the 1 μF capacitor. Comparator No. 2 provides a quick reset.The circuit settles to a final value three times as fast as a simple 1.5 M ohm-1μF filter, with almost no dc error.   (View)

Oven_temperature_controller

Published:2009/7/24 2:46:00 Author:Jessie

Pig. 13-27 This circuit shows a precision temperature controller for a small-component oven. When power is applied, the thermistor (a negative TC device) is at a high value. A1saturates positive. This forces the LT3525A switching regulator output low, biasing Q1. As the heater warms, the thermistor value decreases. When the inputs balance, A1comes out of saturation and the LT3525A pulse-width modulates the heater via Al, completing a feedback path. The 2-kHz pulse-width-modulated heater power is much faster than the thermal-loop response and the oven sees an even, continuous heat flow. Linear Technology Linear Applications Handbook, 1990, p. AN5-1.   (View)

PULSED_HORN_ALARM

Published:2009/7/2 3:01:00 Author:May

Two CMOS packages incorporate multiple time delays to improve convenience and effectiveness of auto intrusion alarm. R1C1 gives 30-s delay for arming alarm after it is turned on by switch concealed inside car, to let driver get out of car. R2C2 gives 15-s delay before alarm sounds after door is opened, to allow driver to get back in car again and disable alarm. R3C3 turns off alarm in 300 s and resets alarm system for next intrusion. Car horn is pulsed 60 times per minute, so alarm would not be confused with stuck horn. Article tells how circuit works and gives detailed instruc-tions for instailation and connection to door and trunk switches.-G. Hinkle, Give the Hamburglar Heart Failure, 73Magazine, Feb. 1977, p 36-37.   (View)

Control voltage input in range of 0 to －10 V is converted linearly to frequency of digital output pulse train haiving fullscale value of 10 kHz. Internal regulation of circuit makes operation essentially independent of ±15 V supply level.A1 is opamp integrator, A2 is comparator, and A3 is precision mono MVBR. Transistor switch Q1 connects Rb to 3.15-V reference voltage during t1 timing period of A3.—W.G.Jung, IC Timer Cookbook, Howard W.Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1977, p184-192   (View)

RADAR_TARGET_ACCELERATION_SIMULATOR

Published:2009/7/24 2:40:00 Author:Jessie

Used for testing radar range tracking systems. Uses phantastron delay modified by adding synchronous. motor. driven capacitor in feedback loop to provide target with con trolled acceleration. Pulse used to trigger phantastron corresponds to radar transmitted pulse; second pulse, triggered by trailing edge of phantastron square-wave, represents radar echo. Time between pulses, representing range, can be set to desired values by changing resistance between positive supply and grid and changing capacitance between plate and grid of phantastron tube.-Radar Target Acceleration Simulator, Electronic Circuit Design Handbook, Mactier Pub. Corp., N.Y., 1965, p 171.   (View)

EXCESS_NOISE_SOURCE

Published:2009/7/2 2:21:00 Author:May

Develops about 18 dB of excess noise in region of 50-300 MHz for optimizing converter or receiver for best noise figure. Can also be used for noise optimizing of TV receivers and for peaking UHF TVfront ends. Q1 and Q2 form cross-coupled 7OO-CR1 MVBR. C1 is greater than C2 to favor conduction of Q2. When Q2 is on, Q3 turns on and makes current flow through broadband noisediode CR1. Diode is forward-biased because available gating voltage does not generate enough noise in reversebias mode. If noise output is too great, insert 20000-ohm attenuator as shown.-T. E. Hartson, A Gated Noise Source, QST, Jan. 1977. p 22-23.   (View)

STATE_VARIABLE_FILTER

Published:2009/7/2 2:22:00 Author:May

The filter produces three outputs: high-pass, bandpass, and low-pass. Frequency is linearly proportional to the gain of the two integrators. Two CA3080's, (IC2, 4) provide the variable gain, the resonant frequency being proportional to the current IABC. Using 741 op amps for IC3 a control range of 100 to 1, (resonant frequency) can be obtained.If CA3140's are used instead of 741's then this range can be extended to nearly 10,000 to 1.   (View)

POWER_SWITCHING_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/2 3:00:00 Author:May

Circuit Notes This circuit provides on/off switching, soft starting, current monitoring, current tripping, and protection against overcurrent for a 30 Vdc power supply at normal load currents up to 2 A. The switch is turned on by an“on”command pulse; it is turned off by an“off”command pulse. An overcurrent trip can also be set on the bus side by a 6-digit binary signal, which is converted to an analog voltage and compared with the amplified voltage developed across a loadcurrent-sensing resistor. Resistor/capacitor combinations（0.027 μF, 2 kO）at the inputs of the current-sensing amplifiers act as low-pass filters: this introduces a few hundred its of delay in the response to overcurrent, thereby providing some inununity to noise. The 0.022 pF capacitors connected to the drain terminals of the PFETs provide a Miller effect, which reduces the rate of change of the drain voltage and therefore the rate of rise of current at turn-on. The soft-turn-on time depends upon the load impedance and is typically 100 to 200 ms.   (View)
