Two transistors act as balanced shorting switch, eliminating pedestal effects that normally necessitate dual-polarity gate pulses for analog signal. Positive 10-V pulse saturates both transistors, thereby grounding both output terminals to give isolation from input signal. Analog signal being gated can be as low as 5-mv rms.-L. E. Frenzel, Jr., Gate Circuit Eliminates Pedestal Effects, Electronics, 37:15, p 77. (View)

In this auto-starter cutoff circuit,two conditions are required to start the car∶The keys switcht must be turned to the starting position, and Q1 must be turned on When Q1 is switched to the ON state,current flOWS through the gate,allowing current to pass through the SCR,provided that the key switchis also turned to the starting position Transistor Q1 can be turned on by connecting R2 through a separate switch to a 12-V power Source or by usmg an existing switched Source Examples of existing Sources might be a brake light,turn signal, parking light,or anything that most people would not normally activate while starting a vehicle With regard to usmg a turn-signal indicator,it doesn’t matter that the power applied to Q1 is not constant Only a pulse IS required to latch the SCR on,provided that the key switch is in the starting position The SCR is a 25-A,50-V unit.

Circuit uses one section of MC75492 hex buffer to boost 0.5-mA output of CMOS logic gate to 10 mA required for LED at input of Motorola MOC3011 optically coupled triac driver. When MOS input goes high, optoisolator provides output voltage for triggering triac that controls AC load. R is 220 ohms for 5-V supply and 600 ohms for 10-V supply. For 15 V, use MC14049B buffer and 910 ohms for R.-P. O'Neil, Applications of the MOC3011 Triac Driver, Motorola, Phoenix, AZ, 1978, AN-780, p 4. (View)

Response of two-transistor a-c amplifier, controlled by d-c voltage, can be mode linear by adding suitable feedback. With no d-c control voltage on base of Q1, both transistors are saturated, and effective shunt resistance of circuit is about 500,000 ohms, When d-c control voltage is increased positively until Q1 is cut off, effective shunt resistance drops to 200,000 ohms.-L.

Based on limited output swing of opamp. Single pot adjusts both positive and negative limit points. First opamp produces limiting. Second opamp serves as voltage follower for isolating attenuator and redueing output impedance. Matching of output between limit points is within about 100 mV at output level of 2 V P-P. Opamps specified are adequate for 3-kHz bandwidth.-E. E. Bames, Ease Hard-Limiter Design with Op Amps, EDN Magazine, Aug. 5, 1975, p 76. (View)

Requires only single IC to provide synchronous detection. Performance is satisfactory for most requirements of most amateur radio experimenters. Gates A, B, and C in IC form relaxation-type VCO whose output frequency is determined by C1 and positive current sources supplying pins 10 and 13 of IC. When pin 6 is high, gate D is biased by R2 and R3 to operate as linear amplifier for input signal. In operation, pin 6 is made alternately high and low by oscillator output, so D acts as amplifying phase detector. Output goes through low-pass filter R4-C2 to VCO, completing phase-locked loop. Separate filter R5-C3 provides AF output. When C1 is 22 pF, circuit operates at about 10 MHz. With 270 ohms for R6, lock is maintained over range of 2 MHz; with 10 kilohms, locking range is 300 kHz. R7 is optional, for fine adjustment of frequency.-R. King, Phase-Locked Loop Demodulator, Wireless World, July 1973, p 337. (View)
