50_300_V_VARIABLE_AT_100mA

Published:2009/7/16 22:51:00 Author:Jessie

Solid-state version of regulated high-voltage supply for tube circuit has ad adjustable current-limiting, instant turn-on, and long component life. Small variable autotransformer in primary circuit of high-voltage transformer is mechanically ganged to DC voltage-control pot connected to pin 8 of U1 to keep input-to-output voltage difference nearly constant. Differential voltage across Q1 never exceeds 100 V so power dissipation of Q1 is only 5W maximum. Regulator circuit is designed around Motorola MC1466L or MC1566L floating regulator powered by 25-V supply having no common connection to ground. Use 600-V rating for 0.33 μF from T3 to ground.-H. Olson, Regulated, Variable Solid-State High-Voltage Power Supply, Ham Radio, Jan. 1975, p 40-44.   (View)

Published:2009/7/16 22:51:00 Author:Jessie

Both npn and pnp transistors conduct at same time for part of cycle, and both are cut off for remainder of cycle, so average power consumed is much less than when one transistor always conducts. Frequency is 40 cps. With 0.6-V supply furnishing 0.015 microamp, total power consumption is 0.009 microwatt. -W. G. Shepard, A 0.01 Microwatt Multivibrator, EEE, 10:8, p 29.   (View)

MAGNETRON_BEAM_SWITCHING

First trigger pulse switches beam to first position, and each succeeding trigger advances beam one position, until reset pulse zeroes V11 for repetition of switching sequence. Succeeding switching-circuit output pulses are thus time-coincident with succeeding amplitude portions of input signal, for pulse amplitude measurement.-J. F.

5_V_SUPPLY

Published:2009/7/16 22:48:00 Author:Jessie

The inverter circuit substitutes a transformer with two matched windings for the usual inductor (see figure a), When IC1's internal switch turns off, the circuit impresses Vout plus a diode drop across each winding. With the reference connection properly chosen, as shown, the second (right-hand) winding can generate an additional supply voltage (-5 V, in this case). Vout (pin 8) is the feed-back connection. For stability, the regulated output (5 V, in this case) should have the heavier load. It usually does because the negative rail in most systems is only a bias supply. But if the system demands more load current from the -5-V output, the second winding should be reconnected to produce the 5-V output (see figure b). The transformer should have side-by-side bifilar windings for best coupling. The V- value (nominally -5 V) depends on load currents and the transformer turns ratio (which can deviate from 1:1). Loads of 5 to 50 mA at 5 V, for example cause a V- change of less than 300 mV-less than that expected from a charge pump. When unloaded, V- increases because of rectification of the ringing that occurs when D2 turns on.   (View)

SOLAR_POWERED_INSECT_CONTROLLER

Published:2009/7/16 22:48:00 Author:Jessie

The circuit for the solar-powered controller consists of a switching circuit, a pulsing circuit, and a high-voltage output circuit. The external power components are a 1- to 5-W solar panel and a 12-V motorcycle or camcorder battery. The output of the high-voltage ignition coil connects to a net-work of paralleled electrodes, called a grid, upon which flies land and are destroyed. Voltage input to the LM3909 LED-flasher/oscillat or (IC2) is kept at 6 to 9V by a LM317T voltage regulator (IC1).The exact voltage is not crucial as long as it is regulated. The LM3909 produces a series of pulses that are coupled to a 2N2222A transistor (Q1) to form a switching circuit. An output of positive pulses from IC2 to the 2N2222A transistor boosts the pulse current so that it closes a 5-V relay (RY1) for approximately 0.1 s at intervals of 1 to 2 s. Diode D1 shunts out high-voltage spikes produced by the switching voltage across the relay's coil. The switching circuit is turned off at night or during periods of heavy cloud cover by phototransistor Q3, whose internal resistance increases as the ambient light diminishes. This reduces the positive bias on Q1's base, causing the transistor to cut off. LED1 serves as a voltage-dropping device. Single-pole, single-throw relay RY1 provides brief pulses of the 12-V battery voltage to IC3, an NE755 timer that is wired as a free-running audio-frequency pulse generator. The pulses are amplified by a 2N3055 power amplifier transistor, Q2.The output of Q2 drives an automobile ignition coil, T1, to generate the high-voltage pulses for the external grid. The output voltage at the secondary winding of T1 is approximately 12,000Vp-p. The circuit is powered by a 12-V rechargeable lead-acid or nickel-cadmium battery. A 1-W or better solar panel of the type used to keep automobile batteries charged should be used to eliminate the need to recharge the battery frequently.   (View)

TUNNEL_DIODE_PULSEHEIGHT_DISCRIMINA_TOR

Published:2009/7/16 22:47:00 Author:Jessie

Used to analyze 30,nsec pulses varying in height from 0 to 6 v peak, over temperature range of -20 to +60°C, Ten stages were connected in parallel and 0.5.v steps used for 0 to 5 v output range. When tunnel diode is triggered at its predetermined level, Q1 delivers fixed current to operational amplifier. As input pulse height increases, more and more tunnel diodes are triggered, and current to operational amplifier increases linearly.-J. D.

BASIC_PUSH_PULL_CONVERTER_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/16 22:44:00 Author:Jessie

The push-pull converter consists of two forward converters working 180° out of phase. Both halves of the push-pull Converter deliver current to the load at each half cycle, and the inductor stores energy. Diodes D1 and D2 conduct simultaneously between transistor conduction, effectively short-circuiting the secondary isolation transformers. Acting as flywheel diodes, these diodes deliver useful power to the output.   (View)

FEEDBACK_CONTROL_FOR_MAX253

Published:2009/7/16 22:42:00 Author:Jessie

The MAX253 and associated 76253 transformers were designed to allow easy implementation of simple dc-to-dc converter circuits. The main problem with the basic circuit is that there is no feed-back, resulting in no control over the output voltage at light loads. When transformer isolators designed for 1-W power levels are used, output voltages can be observed rising above 5.5 V at less than 20-percent load. The circuit provides feedback control from the output via an optoisolator and voltage-reference device in a single pack (TPS5094). This results in an output voltage that is static at light loads. The circuit uses the internal TL431 reference devices of the TPS5904 to set a value at which the optoisolator is switched (Vref = 2.51 V). Using two 4.7-kΩ resistors (R5 and R6) gives an ideal output voltage of 5 V; with only 500μA of drain current, the measured value was 4.95 V. The output of the optoisolator then controls the shutdown pin (SD) on the MAX253, via the ZTX451 buffer transistor, and switches the device off when the output voltage exceeds the predefined value. Therefore, the circuit works in a burst mode at light loads, with the switching being turned on and off as necessary. As the load increases, the device eventually reaches the stage where switching is occurring all the time.   (View)
