NATIONAL_SEMICONDUCTOR
A circuit for use with grounded thermocouples is shown. To trim, short out the LM329B and ad-just R5 so that V°= αT, where cc is the Seebeck coefficient of the thermocouple and T is the absolute temperature. Remove the short and adjust R4 so that W equals the thermocouple output voltage at ambient. A good grounding system is essential here, for any ground differential will appear in series with the thermocouple output.   (View)

DIFFERENTIAL_THERMOMETER
The differential thermometer shown in the figure produces an output voltage which is proportional to the temperature difference between two sensors. This is accomplished by using a dif-ference amplifier to subtract the sensor outputs from one another and then multiplying the differ-ence by a factor of 10 to provide a single-ended output of 100 mV per degree of differential tem-perature.   (View)

UNIVERSAL_WIPER_DELAY

UNIVERSAL_WIPER_DELAY
IC1 is connected in the astable mode, driving RLA. C3, Dl, and D2 prevent spikes from the relay coil and the wiper motor from triggering IC1. VR2 is adjusted to give the minimum delay time required. VR1 is the main delay control and provides a range of from about 1 second to 20 seconds. SW1 is an over-ride switch to hold RLA permanently on (for normal wiper operation). The relay should have a resistance of at least 150 ohms and have heavy duty contacts. The suppression circuit may be needed for the protection of IC1.   (View)

TEMPERATURE_TO_FREQUENCY_CONVERTER_KELVIN

Published:2009/6/24 4:17:00 Author:Jessie

TEMPERATURE_TO_FREQUENCY_CONVERTER_KELVIN
This simple connection results in a direct conversion of temperature to frequency. The 1-mV/°K temperature output serves as the input to the buffer amplifier, and the oscillator drive current is scaled to be 298μA at 298°K (+25℃). Use of a 1000-pF capacitor results in a corresponding fre-quency of 2.98 kHz. A single-point trim for calibration is normally sufficient to give errors less than ±2℃ from -55℃ to +125℃. An NPO capacitor is preferred to minimize nonlinearity that results from capacitance drift.   (View)

TEMPERATURE_TO_FREQUENCY_CONVERTER_CELSIUS
The 1.00-V reference output can be combined with the 1-mV/°K output to realize various temperature scales. For the Celsius scale, the lower end of the timing resistor must be offset by 273 mV. This is easily accomplished, and it results in an output from 0 to 1 kHz for temperatures from 0℃ to +100℃. Other offsets and scale factors are equally easy to implement.   (View)

PROPORTIONAL_TEMPERATURE_CONTROLLER

Most temperature-controller circuits use upper and lower trip points to control a heater element, with the heater power full on and full off. Usually, this results in a temperature hysteresis of several degrees. This relatively large temperature hysteresis effect might cause modulation in the output of the circuit that's being controlled. A proportional temperature controller eliminates this problem by continuously providing the power needed to maintain the oven at the desired temperature-within 1℃. From a cold start, maximum power is applied until the temperature is within 2℃ of the set point. The circuit's mechanical construction is important. The five heater resistors (R12 through R16), the temperature-sensor IC (U1), and the circuit being controlled are mounted with thermal epoxy to a small piece of aluminum. This provides excellent heat transfer between the components. The heater resistors must be selected to raise the temperature from ambient to the set point within an acceptable warm-up time. U1 is Analog Devices' TMP-01 temperature- controller IC. The voltage proportional to absolute temperature (VPTAT) has a temperature coefficient of exactly 5 mV/℃. The set point is determined by the R1/R2 ratio. U2 is a Linear Technology LT1014 quad precision op amp. U2C is an oscillator with a 50% duty cycle that supplies a triangle wave between 1/3 and 2/3 of the supply voltage at U2-2 U2B compares the amplified VPTAT to the triangle wave, which drives Q1 at a duty cycle of 100% or less. Because the triangle wave's peak-to-peak amplitude is 2.7 V, and VPTAT is amplified by a factor of 300, a temperature change of approximately 2 mV moves the duty cycle from 100% to 0%.   (View)

SPEED_ALARM

SPEED_ALARM
Pulses from the distributor points are pas-sed through a current limiting resistor, rec-tified, and clipped at 4.7 volts. Via Q1 and the diode pump, a dc voltage proportional to engine rpm is presented to RV1; the sharp transfer characteristic of a CM0S gate, assisted by feedback, is used to enable the oscillator formed by the remaining half of the 4011. At the pre-set speed, a nonignorable tone emits from the speaker, and disappears as soon as the speed drops by three or four mph.   (View)

TACHOMETER

Published:2009/6/24 4:10:00 Author:Jessie

TACHOMETER
An electrical signal taken from the low tension side of the distributor is converted into a voltage proportional to engine rpm and this voltage is displayed on a meter calibrated ac-cordingly. The 555 timer IC is used as a monostable which, in effect, converts the sig-nal pulse from the breaker points to a single positive pulse the width of which is determined by the value of R4 + RV2 and C2. Resistors R2 and R3 set a voltage of about 4 volts at pin 2 of IC1. The IC is triggered if this voltage is re-duced to less than approximately 2.7 volts (1/3 of supply voltage), and this occurs due to the voltage swing when the breaker points open.An adjustment potentiometer RV1 enables the input level to be set to avoid false triggering. Zener diode ZD1 and the 180 ohm resistor stabilize the unit against voltage variations.   (View)

BARGRAPH_CAR_VOLTMETER

Published:2009/6/24 4:08:00 Author:Jessie

BARGRAPH_CAR_VOLTMETER
The LM3914 acts as a LED-driving vol-tometer that has its basic maximum and minimum readings determined by the values of R2 and RV2. When correctly adjusted, the unit actually covers the 2.5 volt to 3.6 volt range, but it is made to read a supply voltage span of 10-10.5 volts to 15 volts by interposing poten-tial divider R1-RV1 between the supply line and the pin-5 input terminal of the IC. The IC is configured to give a 'dot' display, in which only one of the ten LEDs is illuminated at any given time. If the supply voltage is below 10.5 volts none of the LEDs illuminate. Ifthe supply equals or exceeds 15 volts, LED 10 illuminates.   (View)

ABSOLUTE_TEMPERATURE_LOG_WITH_RS_232

Published:2009/6/24 4:08:00 Author:Jessie

ABSOLUTE_TEMPERATURE_LOG_WITH_RS_232
In the setup, T1 (an LM334 temperature sensor) generates a constant current that's propor-tional to absolute temperature, and equal to 25μA at 323 Kelvin (50℃). RI sets this constant of pro-portionality. The current discharges the parallel combination of C1 and C2 connected to the trigger and the threshold pins of UI, which is a CMOS implementation of the venerable 555 analog timer.The negative-going ramp is compared by UI to an internal2.S-V trigger level controlled by 21. When the ramp gets there, U1 triggers. The output pin (3) will go high, presenting a start bit to the con-nected communications port, which causes Q1 to source 100 μA to the timing node. At the same time, the discharge pin (7) will open, allowing R2 and the bottom end of C1 and T1 to be supplied by C1, and isolates it from C2. Consequently, the current supplied by transistor Q1 will go solely to C2 so that when the result-ing positive-going ramp reaches 5V, exactly 25nC (2.5 V x C2) will have been deposited in the tim-ing node by the recharge cycle because its threshold level (6) will have been reached. This causes both the output pin to return to the negative rail, restoring the marking condition of the R2-232 in-terface, and Q1 to stop recharging C2. U1's discharge pin (7) now connects R2 to the negative rail, causing the charge that was deposited by T1 on C1 during the recharge interval to rapidly redistrib-ute between C1 and C2. This arrangement creates a very linear (0.01%) relationship between T1 cur-rent and pulse output frequency. While this is happening, the PC's communications port hardware assembles a valid (although meaningless) character because the positive pulse output by UI looks like the start bit of a charac-ter. A simple program running in the PC can then count the frequency of these characters and con-vert the resulting rate into a direct readout of temperature. Because of the 3.1-Hz/degree slope of frequency versus temperature, a 30-second average suffices for 0.01°resolution.   (View)
