Based on fact that object moving toward or away from antenna causes phase relationship of radiated and reflected waves to shift through 2 pi radians at antenna for each half-wave length of movement. Varying phase changes amplitude of oscillation, detected by circuit and used to turn on alarm. Drift in oscillator grid voltage activates timing motor which adjusts degree of coupling between oscillator tank and antenna, to make alarm self-adjusting.-G.

After the SCR tums on, C1 charges up to almost the full supply voltage via R3 and the anode of the SCR. When S2 is subsequently closed, it clamps the positive end of C1 to ground, and the charge on C1 forces the anode of the SCR to swing negative momentarily, thereby reverse-biasing the SCR and causing it to tum off. The capacitor's charge bleeds away rapidly, but it has to hold the SCR's anode negative for only a few ps to ensure turn-off. C1 must be a nonpolarized type. (View)

This frequency/voltage converter enables calibrations of cassette-deck speed. It records a steady 1-kHz tone on the cassette deck, and monitors the frequency on the converter. Then play the tone back and adjust the motor speed until you get the same frequency reading on the converter. The frequency/voltage converter can drive an analog meter to indicate small variations in tape speed.

This circuit will allow a multimeter to display the positive or negative peaks of an incoming signal. A 741, IC1, is used in the noninverting mode with R1 defining the input impedance. D1 or D2 will conduct on a positive or negative peak, charging C2 until the inverting input is at the same dc level as the incoming peak. This level will maintain the voltage until a higher peak is detected, then this will be stored by C2. Another 741, IC2, prevents loading by the multimeter. Connected in the noninverting mode as a unity gain buffer, output impedance is less than 1 Ω. This circuit has a useful frequency response from 10 Hz to 100 kHz at ± 1 dB. High linearity is ensured by placing the diodes in the feedback loop of IC1, effectively compensating for the 0.6 V bias that these components require. (View)

Provides 0.4-s bursts at choice of six audio frequencies, for access to up to six different repeaters. Value of C1 in transistor circuit determines duration of burst. AF oscillator uses Signetics NE566V phase-locked loop, with tone frequencies determined by C1 and R1 plus R2 through R7. To adjust initially, remove Q1 from circuit so oscillator runs continuously, connect frequency counter to junction of 0.05-pF capacitor and 1-megohm resistor, set all pots at minimum, ad just R1 for 2500 Hz, set selector switch to position 1, and adjust corresponding control for desired frequency.Repeat for other pots.-G.

Glitch has been a universal slang expression among electronics people for an unwanted transient con-dition. In D/A converters, the word has achieved semiofficial status for an output transient, which occurs when the digital input addressed is changed. The sample/hold amplifier does double duty, serving as a buffer amplifier as well as a glitch remover, delaying the output by 1/2-clock cycle.
The sample/hold can be used to remove many other types of glitches in a system. If a delayed sample pulse is required, it can be generated using a dual monostable multivibrator IC. (View)
