This regulator circuit stabilize the output voltage at 200V directly (without a transformer). Although the output voltage is high, this circuit only suffer a tension of the voltage drop (Vinput-Voutput), which is suffered mainly by the transistors. The op-amp suffers even less tension, since it regulate the applied voltage at their pins around the level of transistor’s bias voltage level.   (View)

22W Amplifier circuit for 12V Power Supply Systems

Published:2013/3/28 4:14:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: 22W Amplifier, 12V Power Supply

This is a 22-W Amplifier circuit that is designed for or 12-V DC power supply Systems. There are many application for this circuit, such as in car audio application. In car electrical power supply system, the 12V power supply will be provided by the host vehicle’s battery. The capacitor C3 is used to give ripple rejection, since noisy power supply voltage is common in automotive electrical system. The power supply noise signal on car power supply is decoupled by the capacitors C2 and C1. Smaller capacitor C2 is needed to decouple the high frequency noise, since the larger cap (C1) usually has high equivalent series inductance that prevent the high frequency noise (such as glitch or spike) to be bypassed. The capacitors C5 couple the incoming audio signal to IC1 while decoupling static DC offset. For better bass response, this circuit prevent rolling off of the low audio frequencies by choosing a relatively large capacitance for small signal, 10μF capacitors.

Fast Amplifier Circuit diagram with DC Stabilization

Published:2013/3/28 4:09:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Fast Amplifier , DC Stabilization

This amplifier circuit combines the LT1010 and a fast discrete stage with an LT1008 based dc stabilizing loop. A differential stage which is single-ends into the LT1010 is formed by Q1 and Q2. An output of 1 V pk-pk into a typical 75-Ω video load is delivered by the circuit. With gain = 2, the gain is considered flat up to 10MHz since it only attenuated about -0.5dB, with the -3 dB point occurring at 16 MHz. At gain = 10, this amplifier flat curve will be up to 4 MHz (0.5dB deviation), with -3 dB point at 8 MHz. The peaking adjustment should be optimized under loaded output conditions. This is a simple stage amplifier for fast applications where relatively low output swing is required. For video amplifier application, 1 V pk-pk output works nicely. A possible problem is the relatively high bias current, typically 10 μA. Additional swing is possible, but more circuitry is needed.   (View)

One Direction Motion Sensor circuit

Published:2013/3/28 4:08:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: One Direction Motion , Sensor

This is a one direction motion sensor circuit. This motion sensor circuit is used to detects an object passing in one direction, ignoring an object that going to opposite way. This circuit uses two sensors to identify the movement only in one direction. The basic principle of this circuit is simple, where one sensor is used to generate a short pulse, and the other sensor is used to block of turn of the gate. The phototransitors give high output on their collectors when there is an object blocking the light. By a 0.4uF differentiator capacitor, the interruption of light at Q2 sensor will produce short pulse at point C. But this short pulse will only appear at the output if a high signal appears at A. This condition will be satisfied if the light to Q1 is blocked by the object when the object is passing through Q2, means that the direction should be from Q1 to Q2.

Since this circuit detect the difference between left and right channel, this circuit can detect a real stereophonic programs. When there is no difference between R and L input signals, the output A1 and output A2 is at the same potential. That will make a a virtual ground rail at half the supply voltage.
