R1 and C2 together provide wide range of pulse widths from Motorola MC851P mono. Rise and fall times of complementary output pulses are better than 100 μs. With only four switched capacitors in combination whh R1, pulse widths can be varied between maximum of 4.5 ms and minimum well under 4.5 μs.-C. W.

Circuit Notes
This is a circuit for a game of the shooting gallery variety. IC2a and b form an astable multivibrator clocking IC1 which causes LEDs 1-8 to flash in turn LED 5 is the target LED and the object of the game is to depress PBI just as LED 5 comes on. If this is done, the whole display is blanked for a few seconds signifying a hit. Otherwise, the LED which was lit remains lit. When the push button is released, C2 dis-charges through R2 taking 8 pin 13 low again and the LEDs will start to flash again. (View)

|Circuit furnishes green indication at resonance and red for either side of resonance. Uses Monsanto MV5491 dual redlgreen LED, with 220 ohms in upper lead to +5 V supply and 100 ohms in lower +5 V lead because red and green LEDs in parallel back-to-back have different voltage requirements. Useful for SSTV, RTTY, or subaudio-tone indication for control purposes on FM. Circuit requires two driver ICs and one section of hex inverter IC, with any suitable active filter used to form level detector for signals at desired frequency.-K.Powell, Novel Indicator Circuit, Ham Radio, April 1977, p 60-63.

Figure 8-6 shows the MAX667 connected to provide a programmable output from +1.3 V to +16 V, with a low-battery function. Let R1 be 1 MΩ, and select R2 for a desired output using: R2= R1× (VOUT/VSET-1), where VSET= 1.225 V. Let R4 be 2.4 MΩ, and select R3 for a desired threshold of the low-battery detector using: R3=R4 ×(VBATT/VLBI-1). where VBATT is the desired threshold of the low-battery detector, and R3/R4 are the LBI input divider resistors. If VOUT is 5 V, a 5.5-V low-battery threshold can be set using 8.2 MΩ for R3 and 2.4 MΩ for R4. MAXIM NEW RELEASES DATA BOOk, 1992, p 4-137. (View)
