PLL_WITH_DIVIDE_BY_N_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/13 21:37:00 Author:May

The MAX038 function generator IC can be used in a PLL system. To gain the advantages of a wider capture range and an optional divide-by-N circuit (which allows the PLL to lock onto arbitrary multiples of the applied frequency), you can introduce an external frequency-phase detector, such as the 74HC4046 or the discrete-gate version shown. Unlike phase detectors, which can lock to harmonics of the applied signal, the frequency-phase detector locks only to the fundamental. In the absence of an applied frequency, its output assumes a positive dc voltage (logic 1) that drives the RF output to the lower end of its range as determined by resistors R4 to R6. These resistors also determine the frequency range over which the PLL can achieve lock. Again, R4 to R6, C4, and RZ, determine the PLL's dynamic performance.   (View)

PLL_AM

Published:2009/7/16 2:28:00 Author:Jessie

Phase-locked loop of Signetics NE561B is locked to AM signal carrier frequency, and output of VCO in IC is used as local oscillator signal for product detector. Tuned RF stage will generally be required, along with good antenna and ground. Simple one-transistor audio amplifier will suffice for driving loud-speaker. Circuit can be adapted for other frequencies outside of broadcast band, from 1 Hz to 15 MHz, by changing values of CY and C1.-E.Kanter, PLL IC Applications for Hams, 73 Magazine, Sept. 1973, p 47-49.   (View)

31_m_SW_CONVERTER_FOR_AUTO_RADIOS

Published:2009/7/13 21:37:00 Author:May

Power for the circuit is taken from the car battery and is dropped to the proper voltages for three sections of the circuit by three separate regulator ICs: U1, U2, and U4. Inductor L2 and capacitors C7 and C8 act as the circuit's antenna tuner. The tuned signal is fed to an input bandpass filter composed of L3, C10, and C11. An NE602 oscillator IC, U3, is used as a combined mixer and oscillator.That configuration is known as a series-tuned CoLpitts or Clctpp osciLlcttor, and is among the most temperature-stable variable oscillators. The 1710-kHz output filter consists of L5, C35, and C36.Each of the filters in the circuit was limited to a single LC section to simplify as much as possible the alignment of the converter. Transistor Q3 is a frequency-counter buffer that is used only during alignment. The gain of the converter is sufficient to overload the input of some receivers. Poten-tiometer R21 can be used to decrease the output level and prevent overload.   (View)

OPAMP_AS_CLIPPER

Published:2009/7/13 21:37:00 Author:May

Two zeners are used to clip both sides of AC signal. Clipping level is determined by rating of zeners used, which can be 6, 9, 12, or 15V depending on application. Ratio of R2 to R1 determines amplification. If long supply leads cause oscillation, connect 0.1-μF capacitors between ground and suρply ρins 4 and 7 as shown．－F.M.

MILLIOHM_DMM_ASAPTER

Published:2009/7/16 2:26:00 Author:Jessie

The circuit provides a 1.000-A constant-current pulse of 100-μs duration, at a 100-Hz repetition rate, to the unknown (RX) resistance, and provides an output voltage to your DMM of 1.000V per ohm of input resistance. Accuracy is better than ±1 percent up to 5.00 Ω, and the resolution using a 31/2-digit DMM is 100 μΩ. Extremely low resistance readings are limited only by the quality of the mechanical connections to RX, and the accuracy of the NULL setting. IC1 (a TLC555) provides the pulse timing to TIP125 transistor Q1, which is configured as a capacitive discharge current source. Capacitor CZ provides the current through R2, a stable metal-film or wire-wound resistor. Two red LEDs, LED1 and LED2, are selected to have a forward voltage drop of about 1.75V each (3.50V total) at a current range of 4 to 15mA, as provided in the circuit. Transistor Q1 has a dynamic Vbe of about 1.50 V, so the LEDs provide a 2.00-V reference across R2 with some temperature compensation. Integrated circuit IC3 (a TLC272) is configured as a peak detector. The 78L12 provides a regulated 12V to the circuit. The Rx, terminals, BP1 and BP2, must be heavy-duty binding posts; do not use test leads because that will introduce errors greater than the value of Rx. Resistor R5, the 0.005-Ω trimmer potentiometer, is simply a 2 1/2-in length of tinned, 24-gauge busbar wire, with the lead from pin 3 of IC3 terminated in a clip that will slide on the busbar. To calibrate the circuit, first use a heavy shorting bar between the input terminals, push S1 (TEST), and adjust R5 (NULL) for an output of 1.00 mV, or whatever value is convenient. You will have to subtract that NULL value from the actual readings. Next, replace the shorting bar with an accurate resistance, such as two 10.00-0, 1-percent resistors in parallel, and adjust R3 for the proper output (5.000 V).   (View)

SIGNAL_LEVEL_CONTROLS_GAIN

Published:2009/7/16 2:25:00 Author:Jessie

Amplifier is used with nonlinear circuit elements to gel D-versus-log E characteristic approximating that of positive color film being scanned. When no signal is applied to grid of V1, all diodes in its cathode circuits are conducting, equivalent cathode resistance is lowest, and stage gain is highest. As signal level increases, diodes V4 through V9 successively stop conducting, with V9 turning off last to make stage gain a minimum.-R. lid. Farber and K. M.
