IR_PULSE_TO_AUDIO_CONVERTER
If your ear is good, you can use this IR-pulse-to-audio converter to troubleshoot infrared remote-controts. It is also a good project for detecting infrared-light sources. A photo cell module (Radio Shack P/N 276-137) detects IR radiation and drives audio IC U1. This circuit is useful for trou-bleshooting IR remote controls.   (View)

REMOTE_CONTROL_ANALYZER

Published:2009/6/16 22:05:00 Author:May

REMOTE_CONTROL_ANALYZER
A schematic diagram for the remote analyzer is shown. The circuit is powered from a simple 5-V supply, consisting of PL1, 51, T1, abridge rectifier (comprised of Dl through D4), capacitor C1, and a common 5-V regulator, UI. Switch 51 is the on/off control and is optional. The power-supply trans-former used in the prototype is a 12.6-Vac unit, but any transformer that can supply at least 5.6-Vac will do. The 12.6-V unit was used solely because of its availability.The output of T1 is full-wave rectified by diodes Dl through D4 and filtered by C1. The bumpy dc output from the capacitor is regulated down to 5 V by UI, a 7805 integrated regulator, LED1 acts as a power indicator to let you know that the circuit is active.The 5-Vdc powers a GPIU52X infrared-detector module* (MODl), which demodulates the 40-kHz carrier used by most infrared remotes. After demodulation, the resulting logic pulses are sent to an oscilloscope via PL2, a BNC connector. *Radio Shack part #276-137   (View)

UNUSUAL_HALL_EFFECT_OSCILLATORS
Although not intended for this application, Hall-effect switch can be used as the basis for a rather unusual oscillator. The oscillator can be reconfigured, as shown in Fig. B, to allow the circuit's oscillating frequency to be controlled via an RC network, comprised of RI and C1.   (View)

SPDT Slide SwitchT1......... InverterTransformer Q1 is a pnp power transistor used in conjunction with a ferrite transformer to form a blocking-type oscillator. This oscillator is a fixed-frequency type, and the feedback to sustain oscillations is from capacitor C1. Because of the turns ratio of T1, the small ac voltage produced on its primary is converted to a large ac voltage on its secondary. That high-voltage ac is applied to the voltage trip-per stage, which consists of capacitors C2, C3, and C4 and diodes D1, D2, and D3. The resultant volt-age is now over 800 V and it is regulated by neon lamps L1 through L6. Diode D4 rectifies the high voltage and applies it to the cathode lead of the GM tube. The positive (+) bias on the GM tube is ap-plied to the anode by way of load resistors R4 and R5. Each time a radioactive particle strikes the GM tube, it causes the gas inside to ionize. This ionization of the gas creates a pulse, which drives the piezo speaker and is also coupled by diode D5 to the base of Q2. Transistor Q2 is a pnp type and is used to integrate the pulses in conjunction with capacitor C6. That produces a dc voltage level, which is in proportion to the quantity of pulses arriving at the base of Q2. The collector of Q2 is con-nected through resistor R8 to the (+) terminal of the meter. The other side of the meter goes directly to (-) of the battery.   (View)

GEIGER_COUNTER_I

Published:2009/6/16 21:51:00 Author:May

GEIGER_COUNTER_I
The circuit is built around a 4049 hex inverter (U1), a pair of 555 oscillator/timers (U2 and U3), two transistors, a Geiger-Muller tube, and a few additional support components. The first 555 (U2) is configured for astable operation. The output of U2 (a series of negative-going pulses) at pin 3 is fed to three parallel-connected inverters (U1-a, U1-b, and U1-c). The positive-going output pulses of the inverters are fed to the gate of Q1, causing it to toggle on and off.The output of Q1, which is connected in series with the primary of step-up transformer T1, pro-cluces a stepped-up series of pulses in T1's secondary. The output of T1 (approximately 300 V) is fed through a voltage doubler (consisting of D1, D2, C3, and C4), producing a voltage of around 600 V Three series-connected Zener diodes (D3, D4, and D5) are placed across the output of the voltage dou-bler to regulate the output to 500 V, fed through R4 (a 10-MΩ current-limiting resistor) and J2 to the anode of the GM tube. The limiting resistor also allows the detection ionization to be quenched.The cathode side of the tube is connected to ground through a 100-kΩ resistor, R5. When a par-ticle is detected by the GM tube, the gases within the tube ionize, producing a pulse across R5. That pulse is also fed through C5 and applied to the base of Q2 (a TIP120 npn transistor), where it is am-plified and clamped to 9V. The output of Q2 is inverted by gate U1-d, then it is used to trigger U3 (the second 555, which is configured for monostable operation). The output of U3 at pin 3 causes LED1 to flash, and produces a click that can be heard through speaker SPKR1 or headphones. The circuit is powered by a 9-V alkaline battery and draws about 28 mA when not detecting radiation.   (View)
