This circuit, is basically a resistance ? sensing window switch, except that the ?resistor? takes the form of an NTC thermistor and the circuit thus responds to temperature. TH1 must have a resistance in the range 500ohm - 9Kohm. RV1 is used to set half ?.... -
It is the essential continuity of circuits Sel 8 Sources and Up/Down Sel 8 Sources, but can work and autonomously, collaborating with any suitable circuit of control. The Relay 1-8 can be 6-24v DC. For current of collector of transistors Q1-8, bigger the 10.... -
The Elect. Sel. 8 is a simple circuit, with a choice of 8 sources of any sort ,of 8 independent switches. Each switch corresponding with a relay for example the switch S1 activates the RL1 e.t.c. The uses of the circuit are quite a few, choice of entrances.... -
This is a circuit for alternative sources selection. It combines mechanical selection using a rotating switch S1, the electronic drive of the relays RL 1-10 and also the optical indication of the selection by the Display DSP1. The function is based on the.... -
A voltage window switch is in practice the basic lower window limit of this circuit is roughly 3V and the upper limit is 9V. The window range can be extended by fitting a suitable range .. -
This report deals with the design for a small asynchronous serial data switch. The switch architecture allows 14 serial ports supporting a subset of the RS-232 protocol. The requirements for the switch are discussed. The hardware interfaces are described in.... -
This circuit controls a load (in this case a dc brushless fan) based on a temperature compared with a setpoint. THe transduced is a diode in the forward polarization regime. In fact when forward biased, the forward voltage drop accross a diode has a.... -
The video switcher described here can display the output of two, three, or four cameras on a single monitor. The number of cameras is set by a DIP switch on the circuit board. That feature avoids blank displays if less than four cameras are used by.... -
When the brake pedal is on depressed, battery positive voltage normally applies through the STOP fuse and stop light switch to terminal STP of the ECU, and the ECU turns the cruise control off. A failsafe function is provided so that cancel functions.... -
This circuit was formed to create a wireless alarm from a normal magnetic contact. By fixing the magnet to the leaf of a door, or swing of a drawer, it is easy to reveal the opening. To transmit the signal to a control anti-theft we modify the circuit of a.... -
We are going to build a START-STOP drive (as commonly found in professional tools), that is a circuit with one switch to run the output (an LED in this case) and one switch to stop it. Nutchip feature two kind of inputs: general purpose and fixed inputs..... -
