Use of N8281 divider network between sections of 556 dual time gives extremely long timedelays without costly large low-leakage capacitors. First section operates as oscillator having period of 1/f. Oscillator output is applied to divide-by-/N network to give output with period of N/f for triggering second half of timer. Connection of divider to second section determines amount of delay introduced by divider. Cascading of additional dividers increases maximum delay to days or even weeks.- Signetits Analog Data Manual, Signetics, Sunnyvale, CA, 1977, p 724. (View)

A single gate (open collector, noninverting) produces a simple one-shot to produce a pulse thatstretches equal to the pulse duration,plus the R1C1 time constant. R2 is a pull-up resistor to keep thegate's input high while waiting for a pulse. (View)

This simple and symmetrical free-running generator has a 50-Ω output impedance, a pulse width of 100 ns and complementary outputs that swing essentially from ground to the power-supply voltage. Moreover, it functions with a power supply range from < 1 to > 15 V and maintains a low voltage and temperature drift while consuming little power.
For oscillation to occur, each transistor must have a gain greater than unity. This restricts the value of R to a range of 1 kΩ to 1 MΩ, because the gain will be less than unity when the transistor is saturated or when beta is low as a result of small collector currents. The two RC timing networks do not have to match because the RC with the longest time constant will determine the frequency of oscillation. (View)

This circuit is used to levitate a steel ball as a demonstration of levitation via an electromagnet. An infrared photodetector is used to sense the position of a steel ball and control the current in the electromagnet via a feedback loop. An infrared emitter and detector mounted across from each other create an invisible beam that passes slightly below the coil. As the object rises toward the electro-magnet, it begins to block the beam. When the beam becomes blocked, the output of the detector is reduced, which, in turn, reduces the current in the electromagnet's coil. The reduced current weakens the magnetic field, the object begins to drop, and the detector once again sees more of the beam.This causes the circuit to increase the magnetic field, and the cycle repeats as the object is attracted upward again. The circuit is designed go that eventually an equilibrium is reached where the magnetic attraction exactly balances the force of gravity pulling on the object. The object then remains perfectly suspended in the infrared beam's path with no visible means of support! (View)

A simple pulse stretcher built with two sections of an op amp uses voltage follower U1A to drive D1 and C2. C2 charges to the peak value of pulse voltage. R3 and R4 determine the discharge time of C2 and therefore the pulse stretching. U1B acts as a voltage follower. Typically this circuit can stretch a pulse by a factor of 50. C2 can be charged to accommodate different pulse rates. (View)

Generating 12V from a 5-V supply for flash memory usually requires a switching regulator and inductor to produce the necessary 30-rnA byte-wide flash. The LTC1262 reduces to just four small capacitors and no inductors the components required for this dc-to-dc conversion function, which generates 30 mA guaranteed output current from a 5-V ±5 percent supply. This surface-mount solution requires less than 0.2 in2. The LTC1262 features a charge-pump-gated oscillator/tripler architecture operating at 300 kHz. The gating of the oscillator regulates the output voltage at 12V.Operating supply current for the LTC1262 is 1 mA maximum, which drops just 10μA max when the device is shut down. Output voltage ramp-up is well behaved, with absolutely no overshoot. The LTC1262 is specified to operate with input voltages down to 4.75 V and up to 5.5V. (View)

Seven-V narrow pulses from 2 Hz to 50 kHz are produced by this circuit. C1 through C4 provide frequency ranges in decode steps. R1 and R2 control the charging time of C1 through C4. R2 is a potentiometer used to set the frequency. R8 controls pulse width. Pulse width varies from 7 μs to 10 ms. Depending on the frequency, R8 can be deleted if it is not needed. (View)

The key idea is that in a dual-supply powered circuit, ground is midway between the positive and negative supply voltages. Unfortunately, ordinary voltage regulators can't do the job. The reason is that they cart only source current, not sink it, and the ground terminal in a dual supply might have to either source or sink current, depending on which half of the load is drawing more current at the time. In the circuit, R1 and R2 divide the input voltage in half. Op amp U1 reproduces that voltage at the ground output terminal by making either Q1 or Q2 conduct as much as necessary. Capacitors Ct and C2 hold the output voltage steady when the load changes suddenly. Diode D1 is present to protect the circuit's input from reversed polarity by blowing the fuse of the main power supply. If your power supply has no fuse, place D1 in series with the circuit. That will afford the same protection with only slightly reduced regulation and voltage output. (View)
