This mixer is built around a TL072 dual BiBET op anp with a JFET input stage,and can be powered from a single-ended 9-to 18-V power surry.The microphone input is capacitively coupled to the noninverting input of U1a.
Resistors R1 and R3 set the voltage gain at about 26 dB and serve as a negative feedback network for U1a.Capacitors C1 through C3 are dc-blocking capacitors.Most high-impedance microphones have outputs of a few mV.Often,a preamp stage just isn't enough,so the microphone signal is given a boost of about 20 db in the mixer.The noninverting input of U1b is biased to half the surry voltage by R6,R7,and C6.Rsistors R5 and R8 make up the negative-feedback network and set the voltage gain of U1b at unity.Capacitor C5 is for dc blocking at this input.

Uses Tektronix M084 multiplier as broadband mixer having linear output within -3 dB limit from 2 MHz to above150 MHz. Current-gain cell in multiplier takes advantage of logarithmic relationship between current and voltage in a semiconductor. Output function includes product of two Input signals,a300-450MHz swept VCO signal and a 300-MHz local oscillator signal.-M .Jaffe, Build a Low Cost Wideband Mixer with a Monolithic Multiplier, EDN Magazine.

Circuit flashes two messages altemately on same Burroughs giant Nixie B7971 display. Lighted segments needed on individual Nixies to form desired wording are divided into three strings. Segments A are common to both sets of letters and numbers. Segments B are those required with A segments to form first message. Segments C are those required with A segments to form second message. Changeover from segments B to C is done with switching transistors controlled by 555 timer and 7476 or 7473 flipflop. Decimal or other punctuation is formed with NE2 ndon and 100K resistor wired in series between pin 13 of a Nixie and B or C. Article gives construction details.-J. Grimes, Put Your Name in Lights, 73 Magazine, Nov. 1976, p 60-61. (View)

Combines AF signals from one to four sources into single audio signal for input of LM381 opamp that serves also as preamp. Shield mixer circuit and use shielded cable for all input leads to avoid pickup of 60-Hz field by high-gain opamp. Increasing supply voltagefrom minimum of 9V boosts outputsig-nal voltage.-J.

Motorola MC3401P or National LM3900 quad opamp serves for three input amplifiers each having adjustable gain range of 1 to about 11 and input impedance above about 100,000 ohms. Common outputs feed fourth opamp section connected as high-impedance amplifier. Maximum overall gain for mixeramplifier is about 300. Use well-filtered 9-15 V supply or battery capable of supplying 25 mA.-C. D. Rakes, Integrated Circuit Projects, Howard W. Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1975, p 21-22. (View)
