A very simple all-pass implementation can be realized with an active-feedback amplifier like the AD830 or the LTC1193. R1 and C set the filter’s actual transfer function, while R2 is needed to provide a purely real input impedance over the frequency range of the AD830 (necessary for measurement reasons). The filter’s two basic equations are and from which we can see that the magnitude is constant:and the phase of Vout/Vin as a function of ω is 180°-2 tan-1 (ωCR1)From the first equation, it's clear that for Zin to be purely real, R1 has to be equal to R2/2, which implies Zin=R1. Once C is chosen, R1 and R2 can be picked according to the termination and required phase shift. The graph shows the circuit's performance for Vs=±15V, R1=100,R2=200, and values of C from 1.5 μF to 150 pF with 90° phase shifts at one-decade increments up to 10 MHz.

Discharge current through C1 minimized by using low-input-current voltage follower A2. R3 allows A1 to be clamped in OFF state by D2 to give faster recovery. Circuit operates much like ideal diode, but with C1 storing DC voltage equal to peak input voltage value. When input signal crosses zero, A1 drives D1 on and circuit output follows rising signal slope. When input signal reaches peak and reverses, C1 is left charged. Reverse diode connections to detect negative peaks. Value of R1 should be increased to 2.7 megohms if C1 is increased to 1μF to improve stability.-W. G. Jung, IC Op-Amp Cookbook, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1974, p 196-197. (View)

This circuit will invert the video while maintaining sync polarity. Therefore, it will produce a negative image of the video signal. The sync is stripped by TR1, TR2, and IC1a and IC1b. Then it controls analog switches IC2a and IC2b to maintain sync polarity while switching in the inverted video produced by inverter TR3. TR4 is an emitter-follower for low output impedance. The unit was originally intended for viewing photographic negatives on a video monitor.

Optoisolator using neon lamp and light-dependent resistor serves as interface between telephone line and line-operated remote bell. Neon fires reliably from nominal 100-VAC ring signal, while capacitor C1 provides isolation required to prevent latch-up by sustaining voltages within range of phone-line quiet battery. If optional protective varistor RIC1 is added, rating of capacitor can be reduced to 400 V. Triac Q1 in series with primary of line transformer provides synchronization to 20-Hz ringing frequency of phone system.-W. D.
