SEQUENTIAL_PULSES

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

Any number of sections of 554 quad monostable timer can be cascaded as shown to give sequential series of output pulses of widths determined by values of R and C. No coupling capacitors are required because timer is edge-triggered. Negative reset pulse simultaneously resets all sections. Varying control voltage (in range of 4.5-16V) affects period of all timer sections simultaneously.-H.M. Berlin, IC Timer Review, 73 Magazine, Jan.1978, p 40-45.   (View)

PHONE_IN_USEINDICATOR

Published:2009/7/14 2:52:00 Author:May

Tired of having your phone calls interrupted by others picking up the receiver? This circuit (A) will show others when the phone is in use. If you would like to experiment with a tricolor LED, check out the optional schematic (B). When all telephones are on-hook, Q2's base is turned on by a voltage-divider circuit, consisting of R3 and R5. (The value shown for R5 causes the device to switch over at about 9 V; it can be changed to facilitate other voltage levels.) Transistor Q2 allows current to flow through R2 and LED2, indicating that the phone line is not in use. It also effectively grounds the base of Q1 and forces LED1 to remain off. When the voltage drops because a telephone goes off-hook, Q2 stops con-ducting, which allows a little current to flow from R2, LED2, and R4 to Q1's base. When that occurs, Q1 conducts, energizing LED1 and LED2 is deprived of sufficient current to glow. The bridge rectifier compensates for a possible reversal between the tip and ring wires, and rectifies the ring signal.   (View)

WWV_CONVERTER

Published:2009/7/15 5:08:00 Author:Jessie

Designed for use with amateur receiver for reception of NBS stationsWWV or WWVH on 10, 15, or 25 MHz. Receiver is tuned to 4, 14, or 21 MHz to serve as IF amplifier, detector, and audio stages. Current drain of converter is 15 mA, low enough for operation from 9-V transistor-radio battery. Table gives tuned-circuit values for frequency desired. Restriction to single frequency eliminates band-switching. Q1 can be any commom-gate JFET RF amplifier providing 8-dB gain. Mixer is 40673 MOSFET. Oscillator transistor is not critical. Oscillator output serves for all three WWV frequencies. -C. Watts, NBS-Ears for Your Ham-Band Receivers, QST, June 1976, p 25-26.   (View)
