AD9835 is a DDS (direct digital synthesis) chip from Analog Devices. It contains a phase accumulator, sinewave table, and 10-bit D/A converter. In can be used for phase and frequency modulation by selecting the phase and frequency of the signal either under software control, or using I/O pins (4 phases, 2 frequencies). Although the chip is designe

d for RF applications, it makes a good audio frequency sinewave generator, too. The schematics below shows how to hook it up to 8052-BASIC chip. The circuit is quite straightforward. MCU clock is used as master clock for DDS, control interface is connected to PWM_OUT, T2EX, and T2. Phase and frequency selector pins are not used in this application, so they are tied to ground. Resistor and capacitor values are straight out of a datasheet schematics. Do filter the AVDD power supply, and keep the analog and digital grounds separated, connect them in single point as close to power supply as possible. The output voltage that is developed on R1 is between ground and REFIN (about 1. 2V with internal reference used by connecting REFOUT to REFIN). AD9835 comes in TTSOP-16 package (0. 65mm pin spacing), and only that. You probably need some magnifying equipment to work with it (depending on your eyesight and steadiness of your hand). I just scanned the result with flatbed scanner at 1200dpi and examined the result. In general, the best option for prototyping in my opinion is a `format conversion`. This is how I usually do it. I soldered the DIP-24 socket on veroboard, then cut a suitable size piece of a board and placed it over the socket. I then stuck a wire into socket through the board, soldered and trimmed the wire. The end result is a crude DIP-24 package. I then scraped the pads off from where the TTSOP case needed to go, and...
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.....
