ac_VOLTEMTER_HAS_UNIQUE_FEATURES

Published:2009/6/24 22:06:00 Author:May

Though it's built with standard components, this ac voltmeter contains many features not typi-cally found in commercial meters; the most unusual is a selection of rectification modes. The meter responses available include true RMS ('fRMS), average, RMS-calibrated average responding, positive peak, negative peak, positive-peak hold, and negative-peak hold.High- and low-pass filters (S1 and S6, respectively) allow the -3-dB-passband to be varied from as little as 10 Hz to 200 Hz, to as wide as dc to 500 kHz. The low-pass filter also is effective in the 100x amplifier mode, where the input equivalent noise level is only 0.3 pV, with 10-kHz roll-off.   (View)

METER_AMPLIFIER_FOR_15_V_SUPPLY

Published:2009/6/24 22:04:00 Author:May

Art LM10 is used as a meter amplifier. Accuracy can be maintained over a 15℃ to 55℃ range for a full-scale sensitivity of 10 mV and 100 nA. The offset voltage error is nulled with R5, and the bias current can be balanced out with R4. The zeroing circuits operate from the reference output and are essentially unaffected by changes in battery voltage, so frequent adjustments should not be neces-sary. Total current drain is under 0.5 mA, giving an approximate life of 3 to 6 months with an AA cell and over a year with a D cell. With these lifetimes, an ON/OFF switch might be unnecessary. A test switch that converts to a battery-test mode might be of greater value.   (View)

VOLTAGE_CONTROLLED_TWO_PHASE_OSCILLATOR

Published:2009/6/24 22:00:00 Author:May

This circuit uses two multipliers for integration-with-contro llable-time -constants in a feedback loop. R2 and R5 will be recognized in the AD534 voltage-to-current configuration; the currents are integrated in C1 and C3, and the voltages they develop are connected at high impedance in proper polarity to the X inputs of the next AD534. The frequency-control input, EY, varies the integrator gains, with a sensitivity of 100 Hz/V, and frequency error typically less than 0.1% of full scale from 0.1V to 10V (10 Hz to 1 kHz). C2 (proportional to C1 and C3), R3, R4 provide regenerative darnp-ing to start and maintain oscillation. Z1 and Z2 stabilize the amplitude at low distortion by degenera-tive damping above ±10V.   (View)

12_V_BATTERY_CHARGER

Published:2009/6/24 22:00:00 Author:May

This circuit is a high performance charger for gelled electrolyte lead-acid batteries. Charger quickly recharges battery and shuts off at full charge. Initially, charging current is limited to 2A. As the battery voltage rises, current to the battery decreases, and when the current has decreased to 150 mA, the charger switches to a lower float voltage preventing overcharge. When the start switch is pushed, the output of the charger goes to 14.5V. As the battery approaches full charge, the charging current decreases and the output voltage is reduced from 14.5 V to about 12.5 V terminat-ing the charging. Transistor Q1 then lights the LED as a visual indication of full charge.   (View)

SEQUENTIAL_FLASHER_FOR_AUTOMOTIVE_TURN_SIGNALS

Published:2009/6/24 21:58:00 Author:May

When the turn signal switch 51 is closed, lamp #1 will be activated and capacitor C1 will charge to the triggered voltage of Q1. As soon as the anode voltage on Q1 exceeds its gate voltage by 0.5 V, Q1 will switch into the low resistance mode, thereby triggering SCR1 to activate lamp #2 and the second timing circuit.After Q2 switches into the low resistance state, SCR2 will be triggered to activate lamp #3. When the thermal flasher interrupts the current to all three lamps, SCR1 and SCR2 are commutated and the circuit is ready for another cycle.   (View)

OVERSPEED_INDICATOR

Published:2009/6/24 21:56:00 Author:May

An op-amp comparator is used to compare the converter output with a dc threshold vol-tage. The circuit flashes the LED when the input frequency exceeds 100 Hz. Increases in frequency raise the average current out of ter-minal 3 so that frequencies above 100 Hz re-duce the charge time of C2, increasing the LED flashing rate. IC = LM2907 or LM2917   (View)

VOLTAGE_CONTROLLED_AMPLIFIER

Published:2009/6/24 21:55:00 Author:May

A constant or varying signal applied to the X input, Ec, controls the gain for a constant or vari-able signal applied to the Y input, Ein. The inputs could be interchanged.For this circuit, the set gain potentiometer is typically adjusted to provide a calibration for gain of Z 10 per-V-of-Ec. The bandwidth is dc to 30 kHz, independent of the gain. The wideband noise (10 Hz to 30 kHz) is 3 mV rms, typically, corresponding to full-scale signal-to-noise of 70 dB. Noise, referred to the signal input (Ec=±5V) is 60μV rms, typically.   (View)

CAR_BATTERY_CONDITION_CHECKER

Published:2009/6/24 21:55:00 Author:May

This circuit uses an LED and 4081 CMOS integrated circuit. The variable resistor sets the voltage at which the LED turns on. Set the control so that the LED lights when the voltage from the car's ignition switch drops below 13.8 volts. The LED normally will light every now and then for a short period of time. But, if it stays on for very long, your electrical system is in trouble.   (View)

HEADLIGHT_DELAY_UNIT

Published:2009/6/24 21:53:00 Author:May

This circuit will operate a car's headlights for a predetermined time to light up the drive-way or path after the driver has left the car. SQ1 is pushed and Q2 is turned on closing the relay and turning on the car's headlights. C1 begins to charge through VR1 until Q1 turns on, turning Q2 off. The relay will then open switching off both the lights and the unit. The delay is governed by the time taken for the capacitor to charge, which is about one minute.   (View)
