REMOTE_FINE_TUNING

Published:2009/7/14 4:36:00 Author:May

Addition of voltage-variable capacitance diode to crystal feedback path provides capacitance range of 50 to 12 pF with tuning voltage range of 0-30 V. Diode supplements 2-60 pF trimmer capacitor that adjusts oscillator frequency with respect to control-voltage input. Inverting input of A1 connects to reference voltage VBB, which is available on pin of MC10116 and is center volt-age of output signal swing of amplifier. A2 is connected as Schmitt trigger to give high-speed rise and fall times. Frequency deviation on either side of center is function of crystal frequency and ranges from±50 to±300 PPM for crystals between 1 and 20 MHz.-B.

PC_TEMPERATURE_INTERFACE

Published:2009/7/14 4:35:00 Author:May

This simple temperature interface covers a range of 0 to 51°C. Dual balanced 12-V supplies were used to power the prototype, but dual 5-V supplies should just about suffice. IC1 is the temperature sensor. Over this range of temperatures, the LM35CZ should work well. The output from IC1 feeds into a noninverting-mode amplifier based on IC2. The closed-loop voltage gain of the amplifier is set by resistors R1 and R2 and preset VR1. The latter is adjusted to give a voltage gain of 5. VR1 is given the correct setting by first subjecting the sensor to a temperature, which is equal to about 50 or 100 percent of the full-scale value (i.e., about 20 to 51°C.). In most cases, the room temperature will be about 20 to 25°C, which will suffice. An accurate thermometer is used to measure the room temperature, and then VR1 is adjusted for the appropriate reading. The following GW Basic or Q BASIC program reads the temperature sensor and prints the temperature on the screen:   (View)
