Digital_power_monitor

Published:2009/7/24 12:03:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows a DS1231 power monitor chip that is used to control a digital-system power supply. The DS1231 uses a temperature-compensated reference circuit to provide both an orderly shutdown and automatic restart of processor-based systems. The DS1231 operates by monitoring the high-voltage inputs to the power-supply regulators (at a voltage sense point), and applying RST or RST and NMI (nonmaskable interrupt) control signals to the processor. The time for processor shutdown is directly proportional to the available hold-up time of the power supply. Just before the hold-up time is exhausted, the DS1231 unconditionally halts the processor (to prevent spurious cycles) by enabling reset when VCC falls below a selectable 5 or 10% threshold. Notice that the TOL pin is grounded for a 5% threshold. When power returns, the processor is held inactive until well after power conditions have stabilized, safeguarding any nonvolatile memory in the system from inadvertent data changes.

RS_232_transmitter_receiver_with_external_power

Published:2009/7/24 11:59:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows a DS1229 that is connected as a triple RS-232 transmitter/receiver. The DS1229 has two internal charge pumps that are used to generate ±10 V, and six level translators. Three of the translators are RS-232 that convert TTL/CMOS inputs into +9-V RS-232 outputs. The other three translators are RS-232 receivers that convert RS-232 inputs to 5-V TTL/CMOS outputs. Figurd 6-46B shows some typical RS-232 interconnections. Dallas Semiconductors, Product Data Book, 1992/1993, p. 10-33, 10-34.   (View)

Digital_auxiliary_boost_supply_kickstarter

Published:2009/7/24 11:56:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows a DS1227 kickstarter chip connected to provide an auxiliary boost supply for digital systems. The DS1227 supplies 5 V on demand from either a 3- or 6-V battery input. The primary 5-V outputs, typically tied to a microcontroller VCC pin, is kickstarted on in response to any one of several possible momentary, external signal transitions. Examples of such signals include a clock/calendar alarm from a watchdog timer (Fig. 6-51), or an incoming asynchronous serial-data word from a host PC via a line-powered transceiver (Fig. 6-60), or a simple pushbutton switch. Figure 6-45B shows some typical kickstarter interconnections. Dallas Semiconductors, Product Data Book, 1992/1993, p. 10-17, 10-21.   (View)

Serial_DRAM_nonvolatizer

Published:2009/7/24 11:51:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows a DS1262 Serial DRAM nonvolatizer chip that is used to enable read/write access of DRAM from a simple 3-wire serial port. Refresh and RAS/CAS timing for the DRAM are performed automatically, transparent to operation of the serial port. In addition, the DS1262 performs all power switching and refresh duties that are necessary to retain DRAM data when the primary power supply fails. The backup supply input accepts a wide voltage range, suitable for use with rechargeable batteries. The DS1262 also provides an electronic gas gauge that can predict the condition of the backup supply. When the VCC1 power begins to drop, an internal circuit senses the changes, and the data-retention mode begins. The VCC1 input is then disconnected from the VCC0 output and the backup supply connected to the BKUP pin is switched in. The DS1262 also monitors the backup supply condition. If the backup supply is below VCC1, the backup-condition output pinBC is driven active low, and remains in this state until the backup supply voltage is restored to a level above VCC1.

A_MUX_with_16_bit_serial_interface

Published:2009/7/24 10:48:00 Author:Jessie

In this circuit, a 16-bit MAX132 A/D provides a serial interface for a MAX328 MUX, with both serial data input and output. The A/D is a 16-bit modified dual-slope converter. In addition to the main 16-bit output, the A/D also provides 3 guard-band bits with add resolution in the A/D noise region, but it can raise resolution if software averaging is used. The MAX328 MUX is addressed through four programmable bits PG0-PG3, which are sot through the MAX132 serial input. Maxim, 1992,Appications and Product Highlights, p. 8-4.   (View)

CLIPPING_POINT_INDICATOR

Published:2009/6/30 21:21:00 Author:May

Uses LED to indicate when clipping distortion begins in 50-W power amplifier. Display circuit is referenced to negative supply, making detection level Indopendent of supply variation; circuit thus works equally well for instantaneous, music, or continuous overloads. Tr1 is normally turned hard on and Tr2 is off. When overload makes collector-emitter voltage of lower amplifier output transistor approach saturation, Tr, begins to turn off and @, charges through D, so LED turns on. Attack time is chosen to make single 3-ms overload transient visible.-J. Dawson and K Northover, L.E.D. Clip Indicator, Wireless World, Jan. 1976, p 60.   (View)

DIVIDING_ANALOG_VOLTAGES

Published:2009/6/30 21:19:00 Author:May

Charge-and-dump V/F conversion technique is used to obtain quotient of two analog voltages digitally. Applications include measurement of total mass flow of gas under constant pressure. With Q1 and Q2 normally off, C1 charges at rate proportional to input E1, producing negative ramp at output of integrating opamp A1. When R2 wiper voltage exceeds E2, output of A2 goes high, tuming on Q3 and temporarily driving Q1 and Q2 into conduction. This process discharges C1, resetting output of A1 to zero. With values shown, E1 and E2 equal, and wiper of R2 at midpoint, circuit output is 10,000 pulses per hour, suitable for driving electromechanical counter. Output frequency is proportional to average DC value of E1 even when input changes rapidly.—H. L. Trietley, Voltage-to-Frequency Converter Performs Division, EDN Magazine, Jan. 5, 1978, p 79-80.   (View)

Published:2009/6/30 21:15:00 Author:May

Convelts first 4 bits of Gray-code word to binary output. Uses two MC7496 shift registers and logic elements to transfer data serially from input register through MC1812 EXCLUSIVE-ORIC to output register. One requirement is that strobe on pin 8 of input register must complete its function before clock appears on pin 1 of register. When this and other timing conditions are satisfied, converter will work at speeds up to about 10 megabits per second.—J.
