GAIN_PROGRAMMABLE_AMPLIFIER

Published:2009/7/14 3:14:00 Author:May

National AH5010 4-bit current-mode analog switch for TTL input is used with general-purpose opamp such as LM118 to give multiplying D/A converter at low cost. For CMOS control logic, use AM97C10 switch. Use of 10K for gain-programming resistor R gives compromise between switch resistance and switch leakage. Use 0.2% tolerance resistors for R and 2R, 0.5% for 4R, and 5% for highest resistance, with 0.1% tolerance for feedback resistor Rf which is also 10K, to give overall accuracy within 0.2%.-J.

16_30_MHz_20_W_HIGH_GAIN_DRIVER

Published:2009/7/14 3:13:00 Author:May

Broadband amplifier operating from 12-V supply uses Motorola MRF433 power transistors for class AB operation and MHW591 as predriver. For class A operation, power transistors should be MRF426. Q2 does not require heatsink because its peak dissipation is under 1 W. Power gain is 55 dB well beyond four-octave band of amplifier, and input VSWR is under 1.2.-H. 0.

VARIABLE_SWITCHING_FREQUENCY

Published:2009/7/14 3:12:00 Author:May

TL497 switching regulator operates at maximum frequency under maximum load conditions. For smaller loads, duty cycle is varied automatically by maintaining fixed ON time and varying switching frequency. Circuit optimizes efficiency at about 75% by reducing switching losses as load decreases.-J.

PULSE_WIDTH_MONITOR

Published:2009/7/15 5:45:00 Author:Jessie

Circuit turns on upper pilot lamp when pulse width is less than predetermined minimum value, because upper 7473 JK flip-flop is clocked when pulse falls to ground before 74121 mono recovers, triggering upper SCR on. Similarly, 8601 mono is set to coincide with specified maximum pulse width; if pulse falls to ground after this mono recovers, its JK flip-flop is clocked and lower (greater than) lamp is turned on. Fault indication is held until reset button is pushed.-J. Kish, Jr., Three ICs Monitor Pulse Width, EDN Magazine, March 20, 1973, p 86.   (View)

SIMPLE_FREQUENCY_SYNTHESIZER

Published:2009/7/14 3:11:00 Author:May

The 555 timer circuit is configured as a 10-kHz astable multivibrator that feeds this signal to the 4046 phase-locked-loop IC. The signal that is fed from this chip is then coupled to a divide-by-N counter. This counter will take the 10-kHz signal locked on by the 4046 and will produce multiples of the fundamental frequency(10 kHz). Therefore, it is possible to generate frequencies as high as 100 kHz with this circuit. When building this circuit, remember to use safety precautions when handling CMOS chips.   (View)

PULSE_EDGE_SELECTOR

Published:2009/7/15 5:37:00 Author:Jessie

Two quad TTL packages form simple circuit that generates output pulse at C as function of either leading or trailing edge of input pulse at A, depending on logic level at terminal D. Additional output at E supplies pulses coinciding with both leading and trailing edges of input, independently of logic level at D. Maximum input frequency is 10 MHz, and edge pulses are about 35 ns wide. IC1 is quad two-input EXCLUSIVE-OR gate, and IC2 is quad two-input NAND gate.－C. F. Reeves, A Programmable Pulse-Edge Selector, EDN Magazine, April 20, 1973, p 85 and 87.   (View)

5_V_40_A_20_kHz_SWITCHED_MODE

Published:2009/7/14 3:11:00 Author:May

Uses Motorola 2N6544 power transistors operating with 3-A collector current (other half of power stage is identical). Bridge rectifier and capacitive filter connected directly to AC line form 150-VDC sup-ply for inverter operating at 20 kHz.

THREE_TONE_GENERATOR

Published:2009/7/14 3:10:00 Author:May

The three-tone generator makes a great warning device. It has a lot of uses; for example, if the appropriate switch is used for S1, the circuit can be used as a burglar alarm. When S1 is pressed, it turns on the circuit. The tone frequencies depend on resistor R1 and capacitors C1 through C3.Switch S2 lets you select between those capacitors. Capacitor C1 produces the highest frequency because it has the lowest capacitance, while C3 generates the lowest frequency.   (View)

COMPLETING_LAST_CYCLE

Published:2009/7/15 5:34:00 Author:Jessie

Developed for applications requiring that gated oscillator must always complete its timing cycle. Circuit uses only two NAND gates and two diodes, none of which are critical as to type. With no input at A, oscillator output B is low. When A is driven high, D goes low initially and drives output B high. If input at A is removed, regenerative feedback is applied from B through diode D2 to C until normal timing cycle is finished. Then, with B low, D becomes high and keeps output B low.-L. P.

EMOTE_TELEPHONE_RINGER

Published:2009/7/14 3:09:00 Author:May

When there is no ring signal, the phone line's on-hook voltage (about 50 V) keeps the triac (Radio Shack 276-1001 or equivalent) from switching on, so the optocoupler doesn't conduct. When the phone rings, terminal 4 of the optocoupler feeds pulses through R3 and R4 to the gate of SCR1. The activated SCR connects the bell to the 12-V supply. Pulses are about 400 Hz, so the bell might sound a bit rough. The opening of the bell's breaker points cuts the thyristor's holding current to stop it from conducting when the gate signal stops. A 12-V, 2-A power supply operates the unit. Adjust R3 high enough so that the SCR is not triggered between rings, but low enough to trigger it when the phone is ringing.   (View)

11X_PULSE_STRETCHER

Published:2009/7/15 5:33:00 Author:Jessie

Provides negative output pulse width equal to positive input pulse multiplied by 1 + R4/R3, which is 11 for values shown. Output pulses are TTL-or DTL-compatible. Minimum output pulse width is 70 ns, and maximum is 1/11 of pulse repetition rate. Circuit consists of switched current source, switched current sink, integrating capacitor, and comparator. Q1 and Q2 act as switches for current sources Q3 and Q4, while C1 and C2 reduce turn-on and turnoff times of switches. CR1 and CR2 provide temperature compensation for Q3 and Q4. AND gate compensates for propagation delay in NOR gate, to ensure that current sink is switched on by trailing edge of input pulse. Add inverter if output must be same polarity as input.-F.
