SCHMITT_TRIGGER_AS_TIME_PROPORTIONING_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL

Published:2009/7/21 20:30:00 Author:Jessie

Hysteresis of Schmitt trigger (difference between turn-on und turnoff signal levels) is adjusted with negative feedback instead of positive, lo reduce hysteresis to less than 1 my. Trigger point can be adjusted above or below ground reference despite use of only one power supply. Modification of negative feedback causes dutycycle-controllable oscillation. Potentiometer adjusts circuit gain smoothly over wide range. -P. Lefferts, 'Super' Schmitt Uses Negative Feedback, EEE, 12:12, p 52-53.   (View)

Sweep generator produces time-varying constant-amplitude frequency signal for network under test, with out-put of network converted to logarithmic DC voltage for display of amplitude or gain on decibel scale of CRO or recorder. Sawtooth voltage for sweep, generated by first Optical Electronics 3329 IC, drives another 3329 that converts sawtooth into logarithmic signal for log-frequency output. Detector uses 9004 absolute-value module as linear detector, with 2357 logamp converting output to decibel scale.

HIGH_LOW_LEVEL_COMPARATOR_WITH_ONE_OP_AMP

Published:2009/7/7 4:00:00 Author:May

The voltage to be compared is fed through diode D1 and D2 to the voltage dividers R1 and R5 where the low and high limits are present. When the voltage level of an input signal exceeds the high threshold limit set with potentiometer R1, the diode D1 becomes forward biased and the increased voltage on the inputs of the op amp drives it into positive saturation. Similarly, a decrease of the input voltage at the op amp inputs turns the op amp to positive saturation. Potentiometer R3 is used for zeroing the op amp in the off state.   (View)

ADJUSTABLE_OVERLOAD_TRIP

Published:2009/7/21 11:01:00 Author:Jessie

Protection circuit, added to conventional regulator, consists of R1, R2, R3, R4, C2, CR2, CR3, and Q1. When load current reaches preset trip level, drop across R1 tums on Q1, which in turn saturates Q2 ond cuts off regulator transistor Q3-Q4 to protect these transistors and reduce output voltage to zero. Turnoff is regenerative, hence fast. To reset, supply voltage is switched off and then back on.-W. A. O'Berry, Adjustable Overload Protection, EEE, 12:2, p 29.   (View)

LOGIC_LINE_MONITOR

Published:2009/7/7 3:57:00 Author:May

This circuit requires only one CMOS IC, which is available in a 14-pin surface-mount package. The figure shows the logic lines going to a standard 9-bit parity comparator chip. This device is conventionally used in data transmission and recording applications to provide a means of error-detection by comparing the received eight- or nine-bit words with their corresponding parity bits. If the sum of the one's in a received word is odd but the odd-par-ity bit is low, then that word is known to be in error and requires retransmission. When one of the logic lines decreases, the output of the parity comparator decreases, generating a wake-up interrupt to the microprocessor. The ninth line comes from a port on the microprocessor and is toggled to reset the output signal high again, ready for the next logic change.   (View)

LONG_TERM_ELECTRONIC_TIMER

Published:2009/7/7 3:57:00 Author:May

The timer includes an oscillator and a counter in an integrated circuit. The timing interval equals the oscillator period multiplied by the number of cycles to be counted.The oscillator frequency depends upon resistor RS and capacitor CX. The number of oscillator cycles to be counted before the counter output changes state is determined by the selection of the counter output terminal, shown here as pin 3. The interval can be set anywhere in the range from fractions of a second to months; it is given by T = 0.55 RSCX2n, where n is an integer determined by the counter-output selection.Operation is initiated by the closure of momentary switch S1 (or by a command signal having a similar effect). This grounds one side of relay K1, thereby activating the relay and causing the closure of the switches that supply power to the timer and to the load.The turn-on of VCC at the timer is coupled through C1 to the counter-reset terminal, thus resetting the counter. The initial reset voltage transient is then drained away through R1 to permit normal operation. During the first half cycle of the counter operation, the counter output voltage (at pin 3 in this case) is low. This tums on transistor Q1 so that relay K1 latches on, enabling the timer to continue running even though switch S1 has opened. The oscillator runs while the relay is on. When the number of oscillator cycles reaches the limit, the counter output voltage at pin 3 goes high. This tums off Q1, thereby tuming off the relay and returning the system to the original power-off state to await the next starting command. The timing cycle can also be interrupted and the system tumed off by opening normally-closed switch S2.   (View)

LONG_DELAY_LINE_FOR_LOGIC_SIGNALS

Published:2009/7/7 3:55:00 Author:May

An extremely long delay of logic signal can be accomplished with this circuit. The logic signals to be delayed are applied to the,DIN of RAM. Address lines Ao,A1, . An are connected to outputs Qo, Q1, …… Qn of a binary counter. Clock input of counter and R/W input of RAM are joined together. However, it is sometimes necessary to put an inverter between those inputs, depending on the RAM and counter employed in line. In the first half of clock interval, content on outputs of counter is increased for 1 and content of chosen memory cell is read; in the second half of the clock interval, new content from DIN in the same memory cell is written. When full cycles of counting reaches the same memory cell, again we can read, in the first half of the clock interval of the following counting cycles, the chosen content. Delay time is: Td=2 n+1·tcl If clock frequency is not a multiple of input signal frequency, distortion of input signal is proportioned to the clock period. But if the clock frequency is a multiple of input signal frequency, there is no distortion. If we use RAM organized according to 2n+1 x 4 with separated data inputs and data outputs, we can have four parallel long delay lines. The resistor, capacitor, and buffer on DOUT of RAM are used to save output signal in writing time, when output of RAM becomes high impedance.   (View)
