Audio Clipping Indicator

Published:2012/9/26 21:18:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: Audio Clipping, Indicator

This Audio Clipping Indicator circuit was intended to detect clipping in preamp stages, mixers, amplifiers etc. and can be used as a separate, portable unit, to signal by means of a LED when the output wave form of a particular audio stage is “clipping” i.e. is reaching the onset of its maximum permitted peak-to-peak voltage value before an overload is occurring. This will help the operator in preventing severe, audible distortion to be generated through the audio equipment chain.This unit is particularly useful in signaling overload of the input stages in mixers, PA or musical instruments amplification chains, but is also suited to power amplifiers. A careful setting of Trimmer R5 will allow triggering of the LED with a wide range of peak-to-peak input voltages, in order to suit different requirements. Unfortunately, an oscilloscope and a sine wave frequency generator are required to accurately setup this circuit. Obviously, the unit can be embedded into an existing mixer, preamp or power amplifier, and powered by the internal supply rails in the 9 – 30V range. The power supply can also be obtained from higher voltage rails provided suitable R/C cells are inserted. SW1 and B1 must obviously be omitted. Clipping Indicator circuit diagram   (View)

This one transistor audio mixer is used in an amplifier circuit design with base driven transistor and with its emitter being current controlled, most of the driving current flows through the collector away. Using the values in the audio mixer circuit shown in the diagram, the collector current will be about 1 mA. At 15 volts power supply, the input resistors should be 33K. Additional input lines can be connected to the emitter line. Each added input must be series limited by the 33K resistor. Audio mixer circuit diagram Mixer PCB Layout   (View)

Cheap Metal Detector circuit

Published:2012/9/19 21:42:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Cheap , Metal Detector

The working principle of this cheap and easy to build metal detector circuit consists in mixing two equal frequencies which causes a low-frequency interference. When one of the oscillators become unstable then the frenquency of the interference will be modified. The metal detector circuit is built with CD4011. The oscillator is built with NAND N1 and a ceramic filter of intermediary freq. (470kHz). The second oscillator is with N3 and a LC combination. The freq. of this osc. is adjusted in such way that will produce an audible oscillation of both freqs.Thru N4, the signal from the variable osc. is amplified. If the sensor coil L1 is closer to a metal object then it will modify the auto-induction of the coil, the osc. is unbalanced and the sound will modify.The metal detector’s coil is made of: 70 turns of enamelled copper with diam. of 0.3-0.6 mm on a 5 cm diam.

Audio Processor Circuit

Published:2012/9/19 21:21:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Audio Processor

This audio processor circuit features the SSM2045 IC which was developed specially for electronic music applications and the 741 opamp IC. The circuit is configured as a low pass filter with a DC voltage control for gain. The input signal is set to a working level of 150mVpp through the resistor R1.How does the audio processor works The filter has 2 buffered outputs: the 2-pole output at pin 1 and 4-pole output at pin 8. Internally, the outputs are connected to 2 voltage-controlled-amplifiers (VCA).The R15 and R16 are connected to these outputs to achieve optimum offset and control voltage suppression. P4 is the volume control. The current that flows to the pins 15 and 16 should not go beyond the maximum of 250 µA. The balance of the two VCAs and the entire filter is being controlled be a voltage range of -250 mV to + 250 mV at pin 14.This voltage can be set by P2. The input can be driven with source impedances up to a maximum of 200 Ω. With an input level of 0dBm, the VCA weakens by 6 dB. The bias current needed at pin 17 is between 120 µA and 185 µA. The cutoff frequency can be shifted between 20 Hz and 20 kHz with a variable voltage at pin 5. This can be varied through P1. The capacitor values were selected to give the filter its Butterworth characteristics. The output current of the SSM2045 IC is converted to a voltage output by the 741 opamp. Any sybsequent circuit must be DC decoupled from IC2.The noise-voltage ration is about 80 dB. Audio processor circuit schematic Sent by Claudio, IT 3 Responses to “Audio Processor Circuit”   (View)
