FREQUENCY_MULTIPLIER_WITHOUT_PLL

Published:2009/6/17 1:53:00 Author:May

FREQUENCY_MULTIPLIER_WITHOUT_PLL
An input rectangular signal is differentiated and short impulses are formed from its edges. These impulses write the content of counter A to a latch that clears the counter after a very short time. Counter A counts impulses of the frequency fo that are much greater than that of the input signal. The pulses come from an impulse generator. Thus, the number, which is written to the latch, expresses the number of these intpulses between the edges of the input signal. The impulses from the same generator pass to (reverse) counter B. The carry impulse loads the content of the latch to counter B. The latch is connected with the reverse counter such that the number written to this counter is 2M times smaller than the number introduced to the latch. This can be readily achieved by omitting M most significant bites of counter B. Because the number loaded to counter B is 2M times smaller than the number in the latch, the carry impulses of counter B have frequency 2M times greater than the frequendy of the impulses at the output of the differentiator. The cany impulses are fed to a D flip-flop, which divides their frequency by two. In this way, the output frequency is 2M greater than input frequency fo as long as the frequency of impulse generator fg is much greater than 2Mfo.   (View)

LIGHT_SEQUENCER

The light sequencer uses two ICs and 10 SCRs to create an ac sequencer. The first IC, a 555 timer, is used to provide clock pulses for IC2. The IC is configured as an astable multivibrator, and its output is on pin 3.Capacitors C1 and C4, along with resistor R2 and potentiometer PI, control the frequency of the pulses. IC2 is a 4017 Johnson counter, which shifts a high-signal level to each one of its 10 output pins in sequence. Each output pin is resistively coupled to the gate lead on an SCR. When the re-spective output pin on the 4017 is high and the positive half of the ac cycle is on the anode lead of the SCR, it turns on. The lamp that is connected to its anode lights.Power is brought into the PC board by the line cord, then the circuit is fuse-protected. Diode LD1 changes the ac to pulsating, which is smoothed by CZ and C3. R23 limits the current, and zener diode D2 limits the dc voltage to 6 Vdc.

CAR_BATTERY_AND_ALTERNATOR_MONITOR

CAR_BATTERY_AND_ALTERNATOR_MONITOR
CAR_BATTERY_AND_ALTERNATOR_MONITOR

The monitor is a simple voltage comparator in which a car battery serves as the battery for op-eration. The input voltage to the comparator is set by adjustment potentiometer P1, which must be adjusted so that the green LED L2 is on when the altemator is operating properly and red LED1 is on when the altemator is inoperative.The circuit operates as follows: When the alternator operates properly, the battery voltage is higher and P1 is set so that transistor Q1 causes Q2 to be off. That results in Q3 and Q4 being fully on, thus applying current to green LED L2. If the battery voltage is lowered (alternator inoperative), transistor Q1 is turned off. That allows transistor Q2 to turn fully on, applying current to red LED L1, indicating trouble. Once Q2 is on, it causes Q3 and Q4 to go out of conduction.   (View)

BATTERY_SAVER_CIRCUIT
This battery saver circuit can automatically turn off a small piece of test equipment after a desired period of time, allowing you to leave your shop worry free.This circuit uses a CD4011 IC to act as a simple timer. One section acts as an RC discharge timer (pin 7). This causes its output to go low, holding the three other outputs high acting as a 9-V source.After C1/R1 discharges approximately 10 minutes, the output drops to zero. S1 resets the circuit.   (View)

BATTERY_TEST_CIRCUIT
Using this circuit, three levels of voltage can be displayed-normal (11 to 15 V), high (>15 V), and low (<11 V). When the voltage is low, the LED glows steadily. In the normal range, the LED is off. When the voltage is high, the LED blinks at a 1-Hz rate. This circuit is useful for assuring proper electrical system operation.   (View)

BATTERY_WATCHDOG
This circuit uses a pair of Zener diodes to monitor battery voltage of a 12-V battery. If below 11 V, D1 ceases to conduct, pin 3 of IC2 goes high, setting FF IC2 turning on Q1, K1, and the battery charger. At excess of 14-V battery voltage (full charge), D2 conducts, resetting FF IC2, and cutting off the battery charger.   (View)

LED_Christmas_Tree_Light_Flasher

Published:2009/6/17 0:40:00 Author:May

LED_Christmas_Tree_Light_Flasher
Three individual flashing circuits that use an LM3909 LED flasher/oscillator IC create the appearance of a pseudo-random firing order. The combination of C1/R4, C2/R5, and C3/R6 control the blink rate, which is between 0.3 and 0.8s, and the inherent wide tolerance range (-20% to +80%) of standard electrolytic capacitors add to the irregularities of the blink cycles. The continuous current drain is about 10 mA; however, if you decrease the values of R4 through R6 or C1 through C3 in order to increase the blink rate, the current will then increase proportionally. Note in particular that extemal current-limiting resistors aren't needed for LED13 through LED18; the resistors are built into the ICs. LED10, which serves as the tree's star, is a special kind of flashing LED that blinks continuously at a fixed rate.   (View)

This circuit is useful if you need a low-energy flashing alarm. The 200 to 400-dc supply should have enough internal resistance to charge the 0.5 μF capacitor between flashes, about 2 or 3 time constants, which means about 500 kΩ to 1 MΩ for a 1-s rate. Use lower values for higher rates.   (View)

Super_LED_Flasher

Published:2009/6/17 0:07:00 Author:May

Super_LED_Flasher
The super LED flasher is actually two complete LED flasher circuits on one circuit on one circuit board. The first LED flasher is made up of IC1 and LEDs D1 and D2. IC1 is a 555 timer IC configured as an astable (free-running) multivibrator with its output on pin 3. The frequency of the 555's oscillation is controlled by R2, R3, and C1. Resistor R1 limits the input voltage to a low enough level to prevent damage to the IC. As the 555 IC oscillates, the output of pin 3 goes high (+) then low (-). When the output is high it supplies current to D1, which lights up.When it is low, pin 3 sinks current and D2 lights up. This happens because LEDs are polarity-sensi-tive (like all other diodes, they permit current flow in only one direction) and one lead of each LED has been connected to the respective polarity needed to light that LED. The second LED flasher, made up of IC2 and LEDs D3 and D4, operates in the same way as the first LED flasher.   (View)

LIGHT_WAVE_VOICE_COMMUNICATION_RECEIVER

LIGHT_WAVE_VOICE_COMMUNICATION_RECEIVER
This light-wave receiver consists of a 741 op-erated as a preamplifier and an LM386 operated as a power amplifier. Potentiometer R2 is the gain control. Various kinds of detectors can be used as the front end of the receiver. Phototransistors are very sensitive, but they do not work well in the presence of too much ambient light. A 100-kQ se-ries resistor is required if you use a phototransis-tor. Solar cells, photodiodes, and LEDs of the same semiconductor as the transmitter all work well in this circuit.   (View)

LIGHT_WAVE_VOICE_COMMUNICATION_TRANSMITTER

This transmitter uses a 741 op amp as a high-gain audio amplifier, which is driven by a rnicro-phone. The output of the 741 is coupled to Q1, which serves as the driver for a LED. Potentiometer RI is the amplifier's gain control. Miniature trimmer resistor R6 permits adjustment of the base bias of Ql for best transmitter performance. Gain control RI can be eliminated if C1 and R2 are con-nected directly to pin 2 of the 741. For maximum sensitivity, increase the value of R2 from 1 to 10MΩ and use a crystal microphone with a large diaphragm.   (View)
