This oscillator circuit is designed to generate both a rectangular wave and a triangle waveform, around 1kHz to 10kHz. The first operational amplifier in the chain generates the square wave, while the second operational amplifier generates the triangle wave. The LM101 is set up as an oscillator which swings rail-to-rail producing the square wave p

ulse to the limits of the voltage supplied by the Vcc lines. The LM107 is configured as the classic operational amplifier Integrator circuit. The LM101 is configured as a threshold detector, with the grounded minus input being used as a reference level. However because of the feedback being applied to the plus input [from the output pin] the voltage comparator also exhibits hysteresis. That is if the plus pin was just used had an external voltage applied than the circuit would just function as a voltage threshold detector. The signal being applied to the input is developed by the voltage divider form by the 10k and 8. 2k resistors. The true input to the circuit arrives from the LM107 through the 8. 2k resistor, but the input to the plus pin combines feedback from the output, which than adds the hysteresis. The threshold trip point is adjusted by the 1Meg resistor The LM107 side of the circuit is the integrator and produces the integration of the rectangular wave, or the resultant triangle waveform. The 0. 1uF capacitor, 1. 4k resistor and 140k adjustable resistor combined with the LM108 form the integrator. The oscillation frequency is determined by the product of the resistors and capacitors [RxC]. The frequency of the oscillation is adjusted by the 140k resistor. Although changing the trip point, by adjusting the 1Meg resistor also effects the frequency. The square wave output will be from rail-to-rail while the triangle...
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.....
