VHF_INTRUSION_ALARM

Published:2009/7/9 23:25:00 Author:May

VHF_INTRUSION_ALARM
Based on fact that object moving toward or away from antenna causes phase relationship of radiated and reflected waves to shift through 2 pi radians at antenna for each half-wave length of movement. Varying phase changes amplitude of oscillation, detected by circuit and used to turn on alarm. Drift in oscillator grid voltage activates timing motor which adjusts degree of coupling between oscillator tank and antenna, to make alarm self-adjusting.-G. A.Whitlow, VHF Intrusion Alarm is Self-Adiusting, Electronics, 3235, p 62-66.   (View)

CMOS_SHORT_PULSE_GENERATOR

Published:2009/7/9 21:48:00 Author:May

CMOS_SHORT_PULSE_GENERATOR
Comprising two low-power, CMOS chips, the pulse generator produces a precise pulse width in the 50 to 500 ns range. IC1 is a dual monostable multivibrator (one shot) in which each positive trigger pulse initiates simultaneous positive output pulses at pins 6 and 10. In response, XOR gate IC2 produces a positive pulse whose duration is equal to the difference between the two input-pulse durations. Section 1 of the one shot generates an approximate 1-μs reference pulse-shorter pulses are more susceptible to manu-facturing variations caused by parasitic layout capacitance. Variable capacitor C2 lets you adjust this pulse width. Section 2 of the one shot generates a variable-length pulse; you adjust its width by using potentiometer R3. Resistors R4 and R5 set the output pulse's maximum and minimum width, respectively. Because the XOR gate's rise and fall times are about 20 ns for reasonable values of load capacitance, you should calibrate the circuit using C2 for a minimum output-width of 50 ns.   (View)

CAPACITIVE_SENSOR_ALARM

CAPACITIVE_SENSOR_ALARM
CAPACITIVE_SENSOR_ALARM
CAPACITIVE_SENSOR_ALARM

The unit is constructed around a balanced-bridge circuit, using both capacitance and inductance. The bridge consists of capacitors C2 and C3, and the center-tapped winding of T1. One end of the bridge is coupled to ground by C4, while capacitance changes are introduced through C1. A small capacitance change unbalances the bridge and produces an ac signal at the base of Q1. Transistors Q1 and Q2 are connected to form a modifted-Darlington amplifier. The collector load for Q2 is a separate winding of T1 that is connected out-of-phase with the incoming ac signal. That produces a large, distorted signal each time the bridge is unbalanced.The distorted signal is taken from the bridge circuit by a third winding of transformer T1. That signal is then rectified by D6 and applied as a dc signal to the base of Q3. The applied signal energizes the relay, K1, as soon as the unbalanced condition occurs, and the relay drops out as soon as the circuit balance is restored. Of course, for normal alarm use, the relay should be made self-latching, so that the alarm condition remains in effect until the system is reset.An audible alarm, such as a bell or klaxon horn, can be operated from the relay. If a silent alarm is needed, a light bulb can be used. Transformer T1 can be purchased as part #6182 from: Pulse Engineering, P.O. Box 12235, San Diego, CA 92112.   (View)
