CARBON_MONOXIDE_DETECTOR

Published:2009/7/13 4:03:00 Author:May

This circuit has a focused optical sensor to transmit light to the CO reagent, and then sense the amount of light reflected. The reagent for CO detection darkens from a light yellow color when exposed to CO. According to the card's manufacturer, a concentration as low as 100 parts per million (ppm) will darken the detector after 15 to 45 min. A concentration of 600 ppm will darken it in 1 to 2 min. The reagent will return to its original color when the air freshens, usually after about 10 min.The time it takes for the reagent to return to its original color depends on the concentration of CO to which it was exposed. The brain of the CO detector circuit is a PIC16C71 microcontroller (IC2) that contains a built-in four-channel analog-to-digital converter. Other than the microcontroller, the main component of this circuit is MOD1, an Omron BE-SY148 optical reflector module. The module directs infrared light to the CO reagent and then receives the light reflected back to it. When CO is present, the reagent will darken, thus reducing the reflectivity. The reduction is sensed by the microcontroller, which then turns on buzzer BZ1.   (View)

OIL_PRESSURE_ACTUATED_RUNNING_LIGHTS

Published:2009/7/13 4:03:00 Author:May

Motorcycles and cars that are not equipped with (automatic) day running lights can be so equipped with the present circuit. The circuit is connected to the oil-pressure indicator. When the engine is not running, the contacts of the oil-pressure sensor in the engine block are closed. When the ignition is then switched on, the oil-pressure light comes on. The potential at A is then low, and nothing happens. When the engine is running, oil-pressure builds up, whereupon the contacts open and the indicator light goes out. The potential at A is then high so that T1 comes on and the relay becomes energized. The relay contact in series with the headlights closes so that the headlight is switched on. When the engine is switched off, the relay is deenergized and the headlights go out.   (View)

AIR_CONDITIONER_MONITOR

Published:2009/7/13 4:01:00 Author:May

Power for the air conditioner monitor is derived from the + 12-V power lead that feeds the magnetic clutch of the air conditioning compressor. Thus, the circuit is active only when cooling is demanded of the A/C system. The heart of the circuit is U2, a factory-calibrated three-terminal temperature-sensing IC that is designed to deliver an output voltage of 10 mY per degree Fahrenheit. The sensor, which is driven by the regulated 8-V supply, is physically attached to the A/C evap-oratorcoil return pipe so that it accurately senses the operating temperature. Its temperature-dependent output voltage, which is proportional to the sensed temperature, is fed to negative input terminal U4-a (half of an LM393N voltage comparator) at pin 2. The output of U4-a can thus be used to determine the operating temperature of the evaporator return pipe. The positive input of the comparator allows the trigger voltage level of U4-a to be set slightly higher than the normal operating temperature of the A/C evaporator return pipe, or about 0.4 to 0.5 V, represent-ing 40 to 50°F.In order to avoid a false alarm caused by the warm evaporator return pipe each time the cycling A/C compressor starts, a time delay is provided by U3, a 555 oscillator/timer connected as a one-shot or monostable multivibrator that has an output pulse width of about 25 s as determined by R3 and C4. When compressor power is applied to the monitor, U3 is automatically triggered. Once triggered, U3 generates a positive output voltage at pin 3. That causes the open-collector output transistor within U4-a to be cut off. No base current flows to Q1, and LED 2 will not light. At the end of the timed cycle of U3, U4-a is ready to monitor the evaporator temperature. Should the temperature be above the limit set by R5, the output of U4-a is pulled low, illumi-nating the warning LED (LED2). As mentioned earlier, a warm evaporator return pipe is a symptom of loss of refrigerant or other problems with the air-conditioning system. Another light-emitting diode, LED1, has been included in the circuit as a visual indication as to the operation of the air conditioner compressor. Should the refrigerant charge be extremely low, the compressor will cycle rapidly, alerting the driver to an almost total loss of refrigerant.   (View)

PRECISION_FULL_WAVE_DIODE_DETECTOR

Published:2009/7/16 4:16:00 Author:Jessie

Uses opamp to reduce input voltage at which transfer curve of diode detector becomes nonlinear by factor equal to open-loop gain of opamp. Chief drawback is that delay for positive input signals, which are inverted and amplified 2 times, is twice that for composite signals. Be-VTVM cause of delay difference, signals do not subtract in phase and high-frequency performance suffers. Values shown are for test purposes, with low-pass active filter having 2-kHzcutoff.-H.

DRAUGHT_DETECTOR

Published:2009/7/13 4:01:00 Author:May

The complete circuit diagram for the draught detector is shown. The key components are R2 and R4; these form a pair of identical positive-temperature-coefficient (p.t.c.) thermistors. It is essential to use this particular type of thermistor. With switch S1 on, current flows from the nominal 18-V supply to the rest of the circuit. Thermistors R2 and R4 are included in a pair of potential dividers. The first comprises fixed resistor R1 in the upper arm and thermistor R2 in the lower one. The second consists of potentiometer VR1, connected in series with fixed resistor R3, in the upper arm and thermistor R4 in the lower one. With room temperature below 60℃, the current in the thermistors will be 150 mA approximately, sufficient for them to self-heat. They will then approach the threshold temperature within a few seconds. The thermistors will stabilize when the temperature reaches about 75℃, corresponding to a resistance of some 500 Ω. In the absence of a draught, each thermistor will be surrounded by a blanket of warm air. However, therrnistor R4 is arranged so that it does not receive any draught impinging on detector R2. When a draught is detected, the warm air around R2 is disturbed, and this thermistor is cooled slightly. This results in a lower resistance and hence a falling voltage being developed across it. This sounds the alarm. R5 supplies a little hysteresis to the alarm circuit.   (View)
