SINGLE_TRANSISTOR_PHASE_SHIFTER

Published:2009/6/28 20:40:00 Author:May

This circuit provides a simple means of obtaining phase shifts between zero and 170°.The transistor operates as a phase splitter, the output at point A being 180° out of phase with the input. Point B is in phase with the input phase. Adjusting R1 provides the sum of various proportions of these and hence a continuously variable phase shift is provided. The circuit operates well in the 600 Hz to 4 kHz range.   (View)

PHASE_SEQUENCE_INDICATOR

Published:2009/6/28 20:39:00 Author:May

Simple, portable phase-sequence indicator determines the proper phase rotation in polyphase circuits. Major components are two neon lamps, two resistors, and a capacitor. In operation, the leg voltages are unbalanced, so that the lamp with the maximum voltage—or proper phase sequence—lights. Table shows typical component values for various circuit frequencies.   (View)

INEXPENSIVE_ISOLATION_TRANSFORMERIMPROMPTU_SETUP

Published:2009/6/26 5:17:00 Author:May

Using two 12-V filament or power transformers, an impromptu isolation transformer can be made for low-power(under 50 W) use in testing or servicing. SO1 is an ordinary, duplex ac receptable. Use heavy-wire connections between the 12-V windings because several amperes can flow.   (View)

REMOTE_FLASH_TRIGGER

Published:2009/6/28 21:01:00 Author:Jessie

Transistor Q1 is a light-activated silicon-controlled rectifier (LASCR). The gate is tripped by light entering a small lens built into the top cap. To operate, provide a 6-in. length of stiff wire for the anode and cathode connections and terminate the wires in a polarized power plug that matches the sync terminals on your electronic flashgun (strobelight). Make certain the anode lead connects to the positive sync terminal. When using the device, bend the connecting wires so the LASCR lens faces the main flash. This will fire the remote unit.   (View)

FLASH_SLAVE_DRIVER

Published:2009/6/28 20:58:00 Author:Jessie

In photography, a separate flash, triggered by the light of a master flash light, is often required to provide more light, fill-in shadows etc. The sensitivity of this circuit depends on the proximity of the master flash and the value of R1. Increasing R1 gives increased sensitivity.   (View)

SOUND_ACTIVATED_STROBE_TRIP

Published:2009/6/28 20:57:00 Author:Jessie

Take strobe-flash pictures the instant a pin pricks a balloon, a hammer breaks a lamp bulb or a bullet leaves a gun. Use a transistor amplifier of 1-watt rating or less. (It must have an output transformer.) The amplifier is terminated with a resistor on its highest output impedance, preferably 16 ohms. To test, darken room lights, open camera shutter, and break a lamp bulb with a hammer. The sound of the hammer striking the lamp will trigger the flash, and the picture will have been taken at that instant.   (View)

SYNCHRONOUS_STEPDOWN_SWITCHING_REGULATOR_WITH_90％EFFICIENCY

Published:2009/6/26 5:01:00 Author:May

A shows a typical LTC1148 surface-mount application providing 5 V at 2 A from an input voltage of 5.5 V to 13.5 V. The operating efficiency, shown in B, peaks at 97% and exceeds 90% from 10 mA to 2 A with a 10-V input. Q1 and Q2 comprise the main switch and synchronous switch, respectively, and inductor current is measured via the voltage drop across the current shunt. RSENSE is the key component used to set the output current capability according to the formuta IOUT = 100 mV/RSENSE. The advantages of current control include excellent line and load transient rejection, inherent shortcircuit protection and controlled startup currents. Peak inductor current is limited to 150 mV/RSENSE or 3 A for the circuit in A.   (View)

Sound input to the microphone triggers tthe IC monostable circuit which subsequently triggers an SCR, and hence the flash, after a time delay. This delay is adjustable—by varying the monostable on-time—from from 5 milliseconds to 200 milliseconds.   (View)

REGULATOR_LOSS_CUTTER

Published:2009/6/26 4:55:00 Author:May

Large input-to-output voltage differentials, caused by wide input voltage variations, reduce a linear regulator's efficiency and increase its power dissipation. A switching preregulator can reduce this power dissipation by minimizing the voltage drop across an adjustable linear regulator to a constant 1.5-V value. The circuit operates the LT1084 at slightly above its dropout voltage. To rninimize power dissipation, a low-dropout linear reg-ulator was chosen. The LT1084 functions as a conventional adjustable linear regulator with an output voltage that can be varied from 1.25 to 30 V. Without the preregulator (for a 40-V input and a 5-V output at 5 A), it would be virtually impossible to find a heatsink large enough to dissipate enough energy to keep the linear-regulator junction temperature below its maximum value. With the prereg-ulator technique, however, the linear regulator will dissipate only 7.5 W under worst-case loading conditions for the entire input-voltage range of 15 to 40 V. Even under a short-circuit fault condition, the 1.5-V drop across the LT1084 is maintained.   (View)

DIODELESS_RECTIFIER

Published:2009/6/26 4:39:00 Author:May

It's common knowledge that when working with single-supply op amps, implementing simple functions in a bipolar signal environment can be difficult. Sometimes additional op amps and other electronic components are required. Taking that into consideration, can any advantage be attained from this mode? The answer lies in this simple circuit (A). Requiring no diodes, the circuit is a high-precision full-wave rectifier with a high-frequency limitation equalling that of the op amps themselves. Look at the circuit's timing diagram (B) to see the principle of operation. The first amplifier rectifies negative input Ievels with an inverting gain of 2 and tums positive levels to zero. The second amp, a noninverting surnrning amplifier, adds the inverted negative signal from the first amplifier to the original input signal. The net result is the traditional waveform produced by full-wave rectification. In spite of the lirnitation on the input signal amplitude (it must be less than VCC/2), this circuit can be useful in a variety of setups.   (View)
