Temperature control is achieved using the REF-02 +5 V Reference/Thermometer and a CMP-02 Precision Low Input Current Com-parator. The CMP-02 turns on a heating ele-ment driver (Q1) whenever the present temperature drops below a setpoint temperature determined by the ratio of RI to R2. The circuit also provides adjustable hysteresis and single supply operation. (View)

Circuit NotesThe timing cycle is continuously reset by the input pulse train. A change in frequency, or a missing pulse, allows completion of the tim-ing cycle which causes a change in the output level. For this application, the time delay should be set to be slightly longer than the normal time between pulses. The graph shows the actual waveforms seen in this mode of op-eration. (View)

Simple half-wave motor speed control is effective for use with small universal (ac/dc) motors. Maximum current capability 2.0 amps RMS. Because speed-dependent feedback is provided, the control gives excellent torque characteristics to the motor, even at low rotational speeds. Normal operation at maximum speed can be achieved by closing switch S1, thus bypassing the SCR. (View)

A shot of direct current will instantly stop any ac power tool motor. Switch S1 is a center-off, one side spring return. With S1 on, ac will be fed to the motor and the motor will run. To brake the motor, simply press S1 down and a quick shot of dc will instantly stop it. The switch returns to the center off position when released. This Power Brake can only be used with ac motors; it will not brake universal (ac-dc) motors. A heat sink must be provided for the diode. (View)

The sensor is a standard TO-5 or TO-46 package. For surface or air temperature sens-ing. Small clip-on heat sinks can be used. A simple probe can be made using heat-shrink tubing and RTV silicon rubber. Three-leads-plus-shield cable is a good choice for wire with the shield connected to pin 4. The controller can be used for baths, ovens, oven-temperature protection, or even home thermostats. Long-term stability and repeatability is better than 0.5 ℃. (View)

Portabl e receiver with directional ferrod antenna and ver-tical sense antenna was developed for radio foxhunting at 1975 Bov Scout World Jamboree in Norway, in competitions for locating four low-power crystal-controlled transmitters hid-den along 4-km course. Varactor-tuned oscillator provides 20-kHz tuning range with R9, ade-quate for the frequency used-3.566, 3.585, 3.635, or 3680 MHz. T1 is subminiature auto-transformer with 8-ohm and 2000-ohm sec-tions, for 8-ohm headphones. For high-imped-ance headphones, connect headphone jack J1 to lug 9 of T1. ON/OFF switch is not needed, L1 is 22 turns No. 28 enamel wound over two 10×95 mm ferrite rodstaped together. 01-06 are NPN high-frequency small-signal transistors.-N. K.

Simple, easily transported VSWR meter consists of high-gain amplifier, narrow-bandwidth (100-Hz) selective amplifier tuned to 1000 Hz, and variable-gain output amplifier driving low-cost VU meter. Ideal for nulling type VSWR measurements. Draws only about 6mA from 9.V transistor battery. Closing S1 increases gain about 100 times for Iow.Ievel readings. R1 sets U1B to 1000 Hz, while R2 sets reference on VU meter.-J.Reisert Matching Techniques for VHF/UHF Antennas, Ham Fladio,July 1976,p50-56. (View)

Shielded 5-foot square loop and single preamp pull signals out of noise when propagation conditions make other antennas unsatisfactory. Operating volt-age is supplied through coax feeder, R1 isolates signal energy from ground, and C2 keeps DC voltage out of receiver input. Nulls are off broad side of loop.-B.

Values of C1-C4 and standard resistor R1 give range of 10 to 150 ohms for measurement of radiation resistance. Meter can be from 50 to 200μA full scale if 500 mW of power is available as signal source. For shorter-wavelength bands, change resistance in parallel with J1 to 5600 ohms and omit C6.

Circuit Notes
The detector circuit is made up a two-amplifier multiple feedback bandpass filter followed by an ac-to-dc detector section and a Schmitt Trigger. The bandpass filter (with a Q of greater than 100) passes only 500 Hz inputs whch are in turn rectified by D1 and filtered by R9 and CA. This filtering action in combination with the trigger level of 5 V for the Schmitt device insures that at least 55 cycles of 500 Hz input must be present before the output will react to a tone input.
