On the primary winding of the first IF transformer there is no capacitor. Does that mean it has only one tuned circuit, and the primary coil is just an inductive coupling The routing of the twisted pair couldn`t be done exactly the same every time. Was it necessary after assembly of the complete set to readjust the coil in the tuner (at the anode of the second section of the ECC85),

or was it sufficient to simply adjust the first IF transformer I`m looking forward to lively participation.

The characteristic impedance is determined by the diameter of both wires and their distance from one another (in this case, the thickness of the insulation times two). The first IF transformer, which has only one adjustable ferrite core, I would assume has its primary and secondary winding tightly coupled, so thatthe primary capacitance is transformed to the secondary. The primary winding is necessary in order to couple the balanced feed line (the twisted pair) to the unbalanced grid circuit of the first IF stage. Therefore a transformer with a single tuned circuit and a coupling coil is used. Given that the FM tuner was previously aligned, no additional readjustment of the output circuit of the ECC85 in the tuner is necessary after final assembly. For the previous alignment of the tuner, it would be...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
