Twin stabilized DC supply uses ganged pots R1and R1a to set both positive and negative regulated outputs at any desired value up to 35 V. Input supplies from bridge rectifiers also provide ±12 V lines for 741 opamps. Load regulation is within 2 mV from no load to full 2-A maximum output. Output hum, noise, and ripple are together only 150 μV and independent of load.-J. L. Linsley Hood, Twin Voltage Stabilized Power Supply, Wireless world. Jan.1975, p 43-45.

In operation, either a P-channel or an N-channel FET can be plugged in and tested by selecting the proper polarity with the power switch. With the control potentiometer (R2) at ground potential, the FET under test will conduct until the pinchoff voltage is reached. The LED will not turn on at this point because of the low current. This pinchoff voltage can be read at the top of resistor R4 with a high-impedance voltmeter. Increasing the potentiometer will decrease the pinchoff voltage until the FET conducts and an LED turns on. The LEDs give a rough indication of conduction. A more accurate reading is obtained by monitoring the voltage drop across the drain resistor. For a quick go/no-go FET check, the switch (S2) across the zeners can be closed. The associated LED should light and should go out when the switch is opened. If it does not, the FET is bad or is connected wrong, or the selector switch is set for the wrong-polarity FET. The 1-MΩ resistor (R3) at the gate connection is protection for the potentiometer should a unit under test short, it provides current limiting for the protection diodes in the gate of the CMOS FETs.

When using multipliers such as the LM1496 or MC1496, low-value output resistors are necessary to obtain maximum bandwidth. This reduces the output swing available, which necessitates a differ-ential high-gain, wideband amplifier. The amplifier has a differential gain (AV,diff) of 50 and a band-width of about 50 MHz, giving it a total gain-bandwidth product of 2.5 GHz. It also provides an output swing of 18 V p-p from a 112-V supply. Transistors Q1 and Q2 form a differential pair that drives Q3 and Q4. Feedback is provided to the emitters of Q1 and Q2 by R6, C1 and R7, C2, which bootstraps the input impedance and sets the overall gain. Q5 and Q6 provide about 15 mA of current each, pro-viding most of the sourcing current for the load. The basic design equations are provided to modify component values to suit different applications.Simply envision the circuit is as a differential current-feedback amplifier, with the low-imped-ance port being the emitters of Q1 and Q2, and the current output as the collectors of Q3 and Q4.Because the output is a bridge circuit and the maximum positive current is set by R6, R7 and Q5, Q6, the output is short-circuit-protected between resistors R8 and R9. RI can be replaced by a current source to reduce the common-mode gain. The main criterion is to balance the currents at the emit-ters of Q1 and Q2 to give a common-mode output voltage of VCC/2. Some care should be taken when driving capacitive load because the circuit can oscillate under such conditions. (View)

There are several versions of the LM2575T. The device used here has an ADJ suffix, which indicates that it has an adjustable output voltage. Pin 4 connects to the inverting input of the internal error amplifier. This amplifier's noninverting input is fed from a 1.2-V reference source. A discrete potentiometer connected across the output and feeding into pin 4 enabling the output voltage to be set at any figure above 1.2 V. In this case, the potentiometer is formed by VR1 in series with resistor R1. The adjustment range provided by VR1 is from 1.2 V to a little over 16 V. Higher output voltages can be accommodated by making R1 lower in value, but a circuit of this type is mainly used where there is a large voltage difference between the input and the output. Consequently, it is unlikely to be used with output voltages of more than about 16 V. The absolute maximum input voltage is 40 V. (View)

When a T092-type transistor is placed in the correct socket, if the transistor is good, the circuit turns on, according to the kind of transistor being tested. For example, if a good NPN unit is tested, LED1 turns on. Note that two emitter positions are in each socket. Transistors have different pin configurations. Some are BBC, and some are ECB. If you don't know the configuration, you can test all the possible pin positions until an LED turns on. You'll need to know if the transistor is an NPN or a PNP type, however. The supply voltage can be 3 to 9 V. There is no power switch because, without a socketed transistor, capacitor C1 is the only load on the battery. For the sockets, use an eight-pin, mini-DIP socket.

Refer to the figure for the circuit diagram of the step-up regulator. This circuit is based on an LM2577T-ADJ, which is designed to give a combination of high performance and simplicity. It can provide output currents of up to 3 A, and it has both overcurrent and thermal-protection circuits built in. It requires a minimum input potential of 3.5 V, and it shuts down automatically if the input voltage is inadequate. The maximum input voltage is 40 V. Capacitors C1 and C2 provide supply decoupling at the input, and C3 and resistor R1 provide frequency compensation. Inductor L1, diode D1, and an internal switching transistor of IC1 form a standard step-up output stage, with output smoothing provided by capacitor C4. Resistors R2 and R3 and preset VR1 form a potential divider that controls the output voltage. IC1 has an internal 1.2-V reference generator, and the voltage at pin 2 is, therefore, stabilized at this figure. With the specified values in the potential divider circuit, the output voltage range is around 9.5 to 25 V. (View)

The LT1309 500-kHz micropower dc-to-dc converter circuit shown provides a compact 12-V supply. High-frequency operation permits the use of low-inductance and low-capacitance values for surface-mount parts. The LT1309 provides 60 mA of output current at 12 V, required for 8-bit-wide flash memory chips. In addition, when the flash memory card is removed, the LT1309 can be shut down by the system, reducing current draw to 6 μA. A soft-start feature allows the output voltage to ramp up to 12 V over a period of time, minimizing inrush current needed from the 3.3-V supply to charge the PCMCIA input capacitance. An active-low VPP VALID output signals the system that the 12-V supply is within regulation after being switched on. (View)

A low-power converter of 5 to ±20 V can be made surprisingly small by enhancing a dual-output charge-pump IC with an extra boost stage composed of discrete diodes. Such supplies are useful for LCD power supplies, LCD bias, and varactor tuners. The MAX864 on its own can generate ±10 V (minus load-proportional losses) from a 5-V input, or ±6.6 V from a 3.3-V input. Using additional diode-capacitor stages, these outputs can be doubled again to approximately ±4Vin or multiplied by 1.5 to approximately ±3Vin. Note that the external diode/capacitor network connects to C1 for ±15-V outputs or to C2 for ±20V outputs. (View)

This circuit adopts a step-up (boost) dc-to-dc controller for use in a negative buck-regulator application. The supply voltage must be negative, and it must deliver 160 to 750 mA. Although the boost-regulator IC operates in a buck-regulator circuit, its standard connections enable proper control of Q1. The output voltage, however, must be inverted by an op amp for proper voltage feedback: The load is referred to the most positive supply rail instead of to 101's ground terminal, so the controller must increase its duty cycle as Vout (referred to that terminal) increases. The op amp there-fore inverts the feedback Signal and shifts it to match the 1.5-V threshold internal to IC1. IC1 is configured in its nonbootstrapped mode, which provides an adequate gate-drive signal (ground to -5.2 V) for the external MOSFET (Q1). With Vout set to -3 V and the output current ranging from 160 mA to above 700 mA, the circuit's conversion efficiency ranges from 84 percent to as high as 87.5 percent. (View)

Three audio inputs are provided-low (1 mV), medium (10 mV), and high (100 mV) input-to drive a pair of headphones or a strtall speaker. The LM386 is good for 0.5 W or more output, and a small speaker can be connected directly to the junction of C8 and R7. A series combination of a 22-Ω resistor and a 0.1-mF capacitor should be connected between this point and ground to suppress possible high-frequency oscillations in this case. (View)
