This is simple VCO ( voltage controlled oscillator) circuit , connected to your current instrumentation by an optoisolator, means that you can measure high voltages of your instrumentation more secure. The component values suit a 0 to 600 V input range (power dissipation in R1 and R2 set a limit on the input-voltage range). The circuit’s linearity is not an issue, because you can linearize its output in software.
The input voltage (VI), charges capacitor C1 until zener diode D1 conducts. Then, the zener diode triggers an “avalanche” circuit that discharges C1 into optocoupler Q1. After Cl discharges, the charging cycle repeats. C1 also averages the sensed-voltage level, which thereby provides noise immunity.

Published:2013/3/18 21:12:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: LCD Power Supply
Laptop display commonly apply large screen Lcds, which generally will need a adjustable and a negative supply to ensure highest possible contrast. This circuit works with the system’s positive notebook battery supply and generates a digitally adjustable negative voltage to drive the large screen Lcd notebooks..
The following figure’s switching regulator generates a negative voltage by the notebook battery supply. The microprocessor data bus drives a 4-bit DAC( 74HC273 ), which in turn can vary the regulator output between 6.5 to 11.5 V. This arrangement enables a staircase of 16 possible voltages between these limits. The LCD power supply circuit implements the DAC by using the rail-to-rail output-drive capability of a 74 HC-series CMOS gate. A resistor divider network made by the 240-kO resistor, connected to the V filter capacitor as well as the resistors, is referenced to the 5 V supply control (the MAX635 regulator).
When the voltage at the VFB pin is greater than ground, the switching regulator turns on. The inductor dumps this energy into the – V filter capacitor. When the voltage at VFB is less than ground, the regulator skips a cycle. The MAX635 regulates the voltage at the junction of the resistor divider to 0 V. Thus, any resistor that the DAC connects to ground (logic 0) will not contribute any current to the ladder. Only the resistors that are at 5 V (logic 1) will be part of the voltage-divider equation.
The entire switching-regulator supply draws less than 150 uA. You can place the circuit in an even lower power mode by interrupting the ground pin. The high-current path is from the battery input through the internal power PMOSFET to the external inductor. Disconnecting the ground connection simply disables the gate drive to the FET and turns off the internal oscillator.

Published:2013/3/18 21:11:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Switch Mode, Voltage Regulator, 85% efficiency
Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) is now widely used in modern electronic equipment due to its compact design and high efficiency of about 80% or more. The switch-mode regulator circuit presented here has an efficiency of around 85%.
The circuit is quite simple thanks to the use of MAX638CPA 5V CMOS Step Down Adjustable Switching Regulator IC. With this IC input voltage of 12 to 16 Vdc converted into direct voltage 5VDC. You can see here is only using 9 additional external components to complete the circuit.
Resistors R1 and R2 are used to indicate when the battery voltage becomes low: as soon as the voltage on pin 3 becomes lower than 1.3 V, D1 lights. With values as shown for the potential divider, this corresponds to the supply voltage getting lower than about 6.5 V. The output of the IC is shunted by a simple LC filter formed by LI, C3 and D2.
The oscillator on board the IC generates a clock frequency of around 65 kHz and drives the output transistor via two NOR gates. The built-in error detector, the “battery low” indicator or the voltage comparator can block the clock frequency, which causes the transistor to switch off.
The MAX638CPA IC compares the output voltage of 5 V with a built-in reference (FET). Depending on the load, the FET will be switched on for longer or shorter periods. The maximum current through the FET is 375 mA, which corresponds with a maximum output current of 80 mA.

This high performance battery charger circuit allow quickly charges gelled lead-acid batteries, and automatically turns off at full charge. First, the charge current is held at 2 A, but as battery voltage rises, the current will decreases. When current falls to 150 mA, the charger automatically switches to a lower float voltage to keep from overcharging. When you hit full charge, transistor Q1 lights the LED to indicate that status.

We can charge Ni-Cd or Ni-MH simply by placing a series resistor to limit current from the power source to make efficient loading. But not so with lithium ion cell (Li-Ion) which has a capacity greater than ever and don’t need to be completely discharged to charge them, but require a strictly controlled charging.
If we talk about the lithium ion cell is charged a third time against a pack of Ni-MH or one-sixth of the same cadmium. But this requires a relatively high supply current to the cell during the charging process and must be provided in the rails pulse control.
In this type of battery charging uncontrolled drip (common in alarm systems, for example) or the load resistor in series with the power lead, without exception, It will destroy itself
But there are a number of active components, semiconductors, capable of carrying the load, control and maintenance of these cells with almost no additional external components.
In the diagram we see the circuit typical Li-Ion battery charger, where it finds that it is easier to make a performance similar to discrete electronics. This chip is responsible for measuring the state of the battery (through its terminal FeedBack) and sent by the control voltage output terminal (Out). The capacitor allow to Serve as parasites RF filter and potentiometer 50 to adjust the system according to the operating voltage of the cell.
