Checks for polarity, shorts, and opens in one measurement, using six LEDs as indicators. Circuit derives three-phasewaveform from 2-kHz ring-of-three oscillator for application to device under test through LEDs. Oscillator waveform serves to make each pair of device terminals forward, reverse, and unbiased in turn for one-third of a cycle. Current flowing into device turns on red LED, and current flowing out turns on green LED, to indicate polarity and position of base lead.-N. E. Thomas, Semiconductor Tester, Wireless World, March 1977, p 43. (View)

Digital radio techniques promise to dramatically enhance receiver capabilities. Directly converting the IF (intermediate frequency) to a digital signal facilitates digital signal processing of demodulated signals. The example described here features an AM radio detector circuit for the typical IF of 455 kHz. For RF demodulation, the input is sampled at a rate exactly equal to the input-signal frequency. The digital output signal, which is actually an alias of the input, is the recovered modulation. (View)

National LM5000 voltage regulator having built-in overload protection is basis of small bench supply for TTL work. Filament transformer rated 12.6 V at 3 A feeds full-wave bridge rectifier rated 200 PIV at 6 A, such as Radio Shack 276-1172. U1 requires heatsink insulated from chassis. Output filter C3 should be mounted directly on regulator terminals to minimize circuit oscillation. Output should read within 100 mV of 5 V. Radio Shack 276-047 LED serves as output indicator. Use 0.22-μF bypass between pins 2 and 3 of U1.-K. Powell, The 5 x 3 Power Supply, QST, May 1977, p 25-26. (View)

Limiting amplifiers also can be put to work in AM modulators. The fast overdrive recovery time and wide bandwidth of the clamp inputs allows these inputs to be driven by high-frequency ac, can as well as dc signals. When driven at the appropriate levels, the clamp inputs can be used to form an amplitude modulator. The HFA1130 limiting amplifier is driven by a 4-V p-p carrier signal. The gain of 2 through the HFA1130 ensures that the carrier amplitude is sufficient to drive the output over its±3.3-V range. The HFA1212 performs the necessary level shifting and inversion to convert the modulating signal input into a pair of antiphase signals that control the high and low clamp inputs. U1A inverts the signal and level-shifts to -1.5 V. U1B inverts that signal, forming a complementary signal centered at + 1.5 V. With a signal input of 0 V, U2 produces a 3-V p-p output at the carrier frequency. As the signal input varies, U2 produces a symmetrically modulated carrier with a maximum ampli-tude of6 V p-p. The 2300-V/μs slew rate of the HFA1130 limits 6-V p-p amplitude carrier signals to a frequency of 61 MHz. If adjusted for lower output-signal levels, the carrier and modulating frequencies can be increased to well above 100 MHz. (View)

This circuit detects the 20-Hz approximately 86-Vrms ring signal on telephone lines and initiates action in an electrically isolated circuit. Typical applications include automatic answering equipment, interconnect/interface and key systems. The detector is the simplest and provides about a 1-mA signal for a 7-mA line, which loads for 0.1 s after the start of the ring signal. The time-delay capacitor provides a degree of dial-tap and click suppression, and filters out the zero crossing of the 20-Hz wave. (View)
