Rise time of output pulse is about 200 ns and width is about 25 μs when using 1 μF for C1. Reducing value of C1 reduces pulse width. C1 charges through R1 until voltage across C1 is high enough to bias UJT into conduction. C1 then discharges through UJT and LED and cycle repeats. LED can be any common type.-F. M. Mims, Electronic Circuit book 5:LED Projects, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis,IN, 1976, p 30-32. (View)

Square-wave output is extended in frequency by combining buffer A2A with opamp A2B functioning as capacitance multiplier for 555 timer connected as astable MVBR,Value of 1-μF timing capacitor Ct is increased in effective value by ratio of gain of A2B stage, equal to R3/R2. Output frequency thus corresponds to that of 4 7-μF capacitor, Negative supply should be equal and opposite to positive supply.-W. G. Jung, IC Timer Cookbook, Howard W.

If you have Touch-Tone telephone service, you can put a call on hold from any phone in your house by plugging this simple device into any telephone jack. The universal hold circuit works with any phone that has a keypad with a # key. To put a call on hold, press the # key and hang up the phone. A timer extends the #-key function while you hang up phones that have a keypad built into the handset. The universal hold circuit first detects the dual-tone, multifrequency (DTMF) signal that is generated when the # key is pressed. It then activates a circuit that partially loads the telephone line so that the central office thinks a phone is still off-hook-even after it is hung up. The hold circuit remains active for 5 seconds after the # key is released, so the key does not have to be held down while the phone is being hung up. When any phone is again picked up, the hold function is canceled. (View)

Opamp is driven open-loop so change of only 1 mV in input voltage makes output switch polarity. This is indicated by one of lamps. Both lamps go out to indicate null. If LEDs are used in place of lamps, diodes are not needed; adjust series resistance as required for full brilliance of LEDs.-B. P. Cowan, Miniature Null Indicator, Wireless World, June 1973, p 284.

C-w output of coherent oscillator is applied to control grid of one beam-defection tube, and radar re ceiver i-f output is applied to control grid of other tube in push-pull, so i-f signal and modulation products are in push-pull at the two anodes while c-w signal components are in same phase and are hence cancelled in following pulse difference amplifiers.-J.

Combines zener with opamp in bootstrap configuration. Regulated output current lO can be any value less than lz but must be much greaterthan opamp bias current. Current in zener is set by R1 to provide minimum of 1 mA. Performance can be improved by using Motorola MC1403 or other 2.5-V three-terminal voltage reference in place of zener. -W.

Fixed OFF-time mode of operation is used in switching regulator design to provide 5-V output that is constant within 100 mV P-P for input range of 20-40 V, for loads ranging from 10 AL maximum to 2 A minimum. Switching frequency can be in range of 1-50 kHz. Operation above 20 kHz eliminates possibility of audio noise but with some drop in efficiency. Values shown are for 50 kHz.
