This circuit shows how a regular 4-bit binary counter can be extended with an up/down function just by adding four XOR (exclusive-OR) gates. The principle is simple: The level at the common in-puts of the XOR gates determines whether the gates invert the counter's QA to QB output levels or not. In this way, the outputs of the XOR gates can be made to cycle from 1111 dowtt to 0000 instead of from 0000 to 1111. The disadvantage of this circuit over a real up/down counter is the jump, which occurs when the level on the U/D control input is changed. The sum of the old state and the new state is always 15. For example, if the counter is at state 3 in count-up mode, the state becomes 12 when the U/D line is made logic high to initiate down counting. (View)

The power supply is monitored by T1, a low-voltage step-down transformer. A standard full-wave power supply is used on the secondary winding to illuminate LED D5, and also operate the relay RLA1 and charge a large-value electrolytic capacitor (C2). The relay has normally closed (NC) contacts, which remain open while mains power is present through transformer T1, allowing the output from the bridge rectifier to power the relay coil. Power failure causes the relay to drop out and the normally closed contacts will now connect the piezo buzzer across capacitor C2. The stored voltage across C2 is enough to sound the buzzer for several minutes. The relay contacts could alter-natively be used to drive an isolated circuit, such as a buzzer and battery. The circuit might also appeal to tropical fish keepers or possibly deep-freeze owners. (View)

This counter can measure frequencies from 2 Hz to 1 MHz, time interval, and period, and count random events. A 74C926 and 74C925 are used as the counter, and these will drive a multiplexed LED display. A 2-MHz time base is used, and a divider chain is used to derive a 1-s gate. An LM339 op amp serves as the input buffer, and CD4000 series logic is used for gating and switching functions. (View)

Cellular telephones and other mobile communications gear use depletion-mode GaAsFET RE output transistors, which require a negative bias voltage for proper operation. This LTC1261 circuit generates a regulated negative voltage using no inductors, and will give plenty of drive for GaAsFET bias circuits. The LTC1261CS8 inverts the supply voltage (5 V to -4.5 V), whereas the LTC1261CS can invert or double the supply voltage (3 V to -4 or -5 V). Both parts regulate the generated output voltage. The quiescent current is just 600 μA, and the shutdown current is only 5 μA. The combination of high oscillator frequency, which reduces the switched capacitor size, and the variety of fixed-output regulated negative voltages allows for a minimum-space power supply. The LTC1261 comparator output controls a P-channel MOSFET to ensure that the drain current for the GaAsFET is switched off until the regulated negative output voltage is valid. This ensures that the gate voltage is sufficient to keep the GaAsFET off during power-up, preventing unsaturated operation and excessive operation. (View)

The circuit overcomes the charge pump's lack of regulation by adding a regulator externally. Another option-if load currents are modest-is to add regulation on the chip. Regulation in a monolithic chip is generally accomplished either as linear regulation or as charge-pump modulation. Linear regulation offers lower output noise; therefore, provides better performance in (for example) a GaAsFET-bias circuit for RF amplifiers. Charge-pump modulation (which controls the switch resistance) offers more output current for a given die size (or cost) because the IC need not include a series pass transistor. (View)

IC1 develops 120pulses per second having 100-μs width at pins 4 and 6 for each zero crossing of line.
