The GHF1 is a small generator covering the HF and LF band from 30 Hz to 30 MHz in 6 ranges. The sinusoidal signal obtained can be amplitude modulated (AM) or frequency (FM).
The GHF1 also has a sweep function.
An LCD display 2 x 16 characters allows the frequency, mode and selected for each, the modulation rate, the value of the trip sweep.
GHF1 claims to replace the generators of the past, (often called at that time `heterodyne`) with significantly better performance. Unlike these old generators
which were type LC, switched coils and lines for variable capacitor for adjusting the frequency, GHF1 is of the type RC, which allows excellent MAX038 from MAXIM.

At the heart of the scheme the MAXO38. This circuit delivers on its pin 19 a perfectly constant amplitude signal of 2 Vpp. The sinusoidal shape is selected by A1 (pin 4) to +5 V and A0
(Pin 3) to 0. The frequency is determined by the capacitor connected to pin 5. Either C11 or C15 Caj selected from 6 by the switch Sw1 ranges.
In each range, the frequency is determined by the current injected into the stud 10 (Iin). This current is equal to U P1 / R3. It is therefore determined by the multi-P1 and voltage follower iC3b.
The coverage ratio is around 10. Vernier frequency is added. This is obtained by varying the voltage applied to the pin 8 (FADJI).
This voltage is determined by a second multi-P2 and the voltage applied to the + input of iC3b. This entry serves us for FM and sweep.
In the first case, we inject a sinusoidal voltage from 400 to 1000 Hz, amplitude 100 mVpp about. In the second case, a sawtooth downward approximately 1.75 VDC.
The exact levels of these tensions will be resolved in finalizing by AJ2 (VOBU) or AJ3 (FM)
The modulation signals are generated by XR2206 , which is perfect for this mission.
They are obtained on the pin 2.
The level is adjustable from 0 to max, for P3a. A switching Sw2 skips the sine to sawtooth.
The frequency of the sine wave is adjustable from 400 to 1000 Hz, by P4. This ramp is 8 to 50 Hz approximately, P5.
The output level of these signals is calibrated by AJ1

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.....
