DARL_ALARM

Published:2009/7/15 22:20:00 Author:Jessie

This alarm senses darkness. Photocell PCC1 is normally irradiated with light and has a low resistance. In darkness, the resistance increases, and enough bias is available to turn on Tr1, activating the oscillator circuit consisting of IC1 and associated components. This produces a tone in speaker LS1.   (View)

2_Hz_TO_1_MHz

Published:2009/7/15 22:19:00 Author:Jessie

General-purpose laboratory pulse generator uses four CD4047A MVBRs to provide six overlapping ranges of frequencies along with pulse-width control, delayed sync, and gating from high-level or low-level input. When delay switch is IN, MVBR at upper center produces variable output delay from 1.5 μs to 250 ms with respect to sync pulse. When delay pulse is OUT, this mono MVBR is bypassed and inherent delay is then about 400 ns. Signal output is buffered with CD4041A for driving any required load. Supply voltage is not critical and can be taken from device under test.- COS/ MOS Integrated Circuits, RCA Solid State Division, Somerville, NJ, 1977, p 619-620.   (View)

OPAMP_AS_MILLIVOLT_REFERENCE

Published:2009/7/15 22:19:00 Author:Jessie

R4 at input of voltage-foilower opamp permits varying ref erence voltage from 0 up to limit of zener. A2 compensates for loading of zener by R4. Dual opamp cannot be used because negative supply terminal of A2, must be slightly more negative than -3 V common to permit linear output operation down to 0 V. If additional load current is required, NPN booster transistor can be used with A2.-W. G. Jung, IC Op-Amp Cookbook, Howard VV, Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1974, p 155-157.   (View)

MEMORY_REFRESHER

Published:2009/7/15 22:17:00 Author:Jessie

Delivers high-energy pulses in extremely low duty-cycle mode. Developed to provide memory-refresh pulses for MOS memory system from standby battery. Circuit is basically programmable UJT oscillator with divider R2-R3 setting threshold or trigger level. To complete one cycle and start next, UJT is turned off by zener. Current through L1 drops, and resulting negative transient at base of Darlington outs it off. This generates high-power pulse with very sharp rise and fall times. Charging sequence then starts again to give sustained oscillation. Article gives design equations.-J. P. Stein, PUT Delivers Ultra-Low-Power.

TIMER_COUNTER

Published:2009/7/14 2:34:00 Author:May

Basic circuit using XR2240 programmable timer/counter acts as programmable mono when S1 is closed, with output pulse width being a multiple in binary of RC seconds. With 8-bit binary counter, time delays range from 1 RC to 255 RC seconds. As an exi ample, if only pin 6 (dividing input frequency by 32) is connected to common output bus, duration of output pulse will be 32 RC seconds. Similarly, with pins 1, 2, 5, and 7 connected to bus, delay is 83 RC seconds. With S1 open for astable operation, output frequency is 1/t hertz where t is multiple of RC from 1 to 255. VCC is 4-15 V. - H. M. Berlin, IC Timer Review, 73 Magazine, Jan. 1978, p 40-45.   (View)

33_OR_5_V_ANALOG_SWITCHES

Published:2009/7/14 2:33:00 Author:May

By adding a single component to a 3-V only or 5-V only board，you can operate conventional CMOS analog switches with Performance approaching that specified with ±15-V Supplies， This means fast switching，low ON resistance，CMOS /TTL compatibility, low power consumption，and a signal range （±Vcc） that exceeds the input supply range (Vcc to ground）．Simply add a charge-ump voltage converter：（IC1），which produces±2-Vcc outputs from a Vcc input .These unregulated voltages ensure reliable switch operation for Vcc levels as low as 3 V. Logic thresholds for the switch remain unaffected A Vcc of 3 V （for instance）produces，±6 v rails for the switch （IC2），resulting in ON resistance＜30Ω，switching times＜200 ns，leakage＜0.1 nA，and Vcc ourrent＜0.5mA Raising Vcc to 5 V produces±10-V rails，resulting in ON resistance＜20Ω，switching times＜150 ns，leakage＜0.4 nA，and Vcc current＜l.3 mA IC1 can easily power additional switches and／or low-power Op amps，but more than a few milliamperes of load current degrades Performance by lowering the unregulated supply rails．   (View)
