An audio source, like a mixer, preamp, EQ, or a recorder, is fed to the input of the Electronic Crossover Circuit. This signal is either AC or coupling, depending on the setting of switch 51, the non-inverting input of buffer amplifier Ul-a, a section of a quad BIFET, low amp TL074 noise made by Texas Instruments op. This stage has a gain of 2, and its output is distributed to both a low pass filter made by R4, R5, C2, C3, and Uld op-amp, and a high-pass filter made by R6,.....
This field strength meter consists of a tuned crystal detector producing a dc output voltage from a transmitted signal. The dc voltage is used to shift the frequency of a transmitter of 100-mW power operating at 1650 kHz. The frequency shift is proportional to the received field strength...
With the values shown the circuit generates a 2-MHz symmetrical square wave. Changing capacitors Cl and C2 to 0.01 µ¥ results in a frequency of 500 Hz. ..
This circuit has a 100-m V hysteresis which can be used in applications where very fast transition times are required at the output, even though the signal input is very slow. ..
Used for digital control of musical instruments, this transmitter converts the digital data signals to equivalent optical signals for fiberoptic cable interface. Optocoupler IC1 provides isolation, and drives IC2-a and -b and Tl,..
Assume the correct phase sequence to be VA-VB-VC. The circuit terminals are connected such that Tl gets connected to phase A and T2 to phase B. The capacitor advances the voltage developed across R2 due to phase "B" by — 60°, while the voltages developed across it by phase "A" is in phase with VA as shown in Fig. 69-1. The net voltage developed across R2 ~ zero, the neon lamp is not energized, thereby signaling correct phase sequence. If terminal T2 gets.....
The input signal is amplified by the transistors. The distorted output is then clipped by the two diodes and the high frequency noise is filtered from the circuit via the 500 pF capacitor..
Ql and Q2 constitute a simple, high-speed FET input buffer. Ql functions as a source follower, with the Q2 current source load setting the drain-source channel current. The LT1010 buffer provides output drive capability for cables or whatever load is required. Normally, this open-loop configuration would be quite drifty because there is no de feedback. The LTC1052 contributes this function to stabilize the circuit. It does this by comparing the filtered circuit output.....
This circuit, instead of dividing by an integer, divides the input signal by +1/2. With the feedback connections ..
A circuit for multiplying the width of incoming pulses by a factor greater or less than unity is simple to build and has the feature that the multiplying factor can be selected by adjusting one potentiometer only. The multiplying factor is determined by setting the potentiometer in the feedback of a 741 amplifier. The input pulses of width r and repetition period is used to trigger a sawtooth generator at its rising edges to produce the waveform e2 having a peak value of.....
The first amplifier circuit is a bird phone. In this circuit, the electret mike (MIC1) is mounted in the neck of a large plastic funnel. The amplifier, built around an MC34119 (which is available from D.C. Electronics, P.O. Box 3203, Scottsdale, AZ 85271-3203; Tel. 800-467-7736, and elsewhere), is then placed outside of the funnel with the pickup facing a nearby bird feeder. The output of the amplifier is then connected to a 16- speaker. The amplifier`s voltage gain is.....
The positive and negative peak amplitude is controllable to an accuracy of about ± 0.01 V by a dc input. Also, the output frequency and symmetry are easily adjustable. The oscillator consists of an integrator and two comparators—one comparator sets the positive peak and the other the negative peak of the triangle wave. If R1 is replaced by a potentiometer, the frequency can be varied over at least a 10 to 1 range without affecting amplitude. Symmetry is also.....
This narrow-stop-band filter can be tuned by the pot to place the notch at any frequency from 45 to 90 Hz. It attenuates power-line hum or other unwanted signals by at least 30 dB..
Integrated circuit Ul (a 555 oscillator/timer) is wired as a conventional pulse generator. The frequency of the pulse generator is controlled by potentiometer Rll. Resistor R2 puts areasonable limit on the highest speed attainable. The output of the pulse generator is fed to the common clock input of U2, a 74C175 quad D-type flip-flop. Each flip-flop is configured so that its Q output is coupled to the D input of the subsequent flip-flop. Information on the D input of.....
Because power MOSFETs offer high power gain at both audio and radio frequencies, they are useful in many areas of radio-circuit design. For rf applications, a MOSFET"s large safe operating area, V0 s vs ! 0, protects it against damage from reflected rf energy. As a modulator, a MOSFET"s transfer linearity aids fidelity. In the suppressed-carrier modulator, an rf signal is applied to the primary of transformer Tl, whose secondaries provide equal-amplitude,.....
Sounds are picked up by MIC1 and fed to the input of the first op amp. The signal is then fed to the input of second op amp Ulb, where it is boosted again by a factor of between 1 and 33, depending upon the setting of range switch Sl. With the range switch set in the A position, R6 is 1 K!:J and R7 is 33 K!:J, so that stage has a gain of 33. ..
The PWM controller uses complementary half-H peripheral drivers SN75603 and SN75604, with totem-pole outputs rated at 40 V and 2.0 A. These drivers effectively place the motor in a full-bridge configuration, which has the ability to provide bidirectional control. Timer U1 operates in the astable mode at a frequency of 80Hz. The 100-0 discharge resistor results in an 8-p.s trigger pulse which is coupled to the trigger input of timer U2. Timer U2 serves as the PWM.....
