Superregenerative radio receiver

Published:2012/11/23 0:50:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: Superregenerative, radio receiver

This is a simple RF receiver mainly for low-distance digital radio receiver application. The analog output of this circuit should be connected to a schmitt-trigger signal conditioning circuit with a proper value capacitor (from collector of T3). L1 for 27Mhz is about 10 turns, 6 mm diameter coil body. The circuit is suitable for other frequencies if L1 is changed.   (View)

SW Regenerative Receiver

Published:2012/11/23 0:42:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: SW Regenerative, Receiver

Sensitivity and selectivity are issues that will invariably concern a short wave listener when he wishes to purchase a new receiver. Commercially available communications equipment will undoubtedly fulfill his expectations, but we are talking here of highly priced products. Low-cost alternatives call mainly for homebrewed radios, and in this sense, the regenerative receiver is the common choice due to its simplicity, low parts count and very acceptable performance. The author is also a short wave enthusiast and for some time used his family's Philips MW/SW vacuum tube radio. Later, he changed to a solid-state Sony ICF-7600, a high selectivity receiver featuring ceramic filters in the IF stages. Then he would discover how much fun he could have building radios on his spare time. After testing a variety of schematics available in books and on the web, the author finally decided to make his own designs. Back in 2003, an experimental Colpitts-type shortwave regenerative receiver was made public on the web by this servant. It was reported to tune from the 22-meter band up to the 11-meter band with a single set of coils. Operation was found to be satisfactory with the prototype built on a protoboard and a ground plane fixed underneath. Further work with the receiver using different sets of coils revealed a larger usable frequency spectrum. Fig.1 shows the schematic diagram of an improved version of the early receiver. It will tune signals from 3500kHz up to 26MHz, roughly in three bands, each with a 1.96:1 frequency-ratio. It must be quoted that the said frequency ratio is what the author got for his prototype. It is a function of the maximum-to-minimum capacitance of the variable tuning capacitor and the stray capacitance of the circuit layout.   (View)

A Bipolar Regenerative Receiver

Published:2012/11/23 0:40:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: Bipolar, Regenerative Receiver

Contrary to what some radio experimenters think, a bipolar regenerative design can be made to work efficiently. The major concern is the low input impedance of the detector-amplifier bipolar stage. Nevertheless, it can be easily compensated with positive feedback or regeneration. A sufficient amount of regeneration can make tuning astonishingly sharp. Another concern is the quality of the detected audio. This, to my knowledge, is subjective. The quality of sound coming out from an earphone can be rated good or fair by two different people. I would suggest that you decide by yourself. So, come on and try the following schematic for the 530 kHz to 1650 kHz AM Broadcasting Band.   (View)

Zhenyu XSX - BIII electronic disinfecting cabinet ozone generator circuit

Published:2012/11/21 21:15:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Zhenyu , electronic disinfecting cabinet, ozone generator

The ozone generator is the core circuit of the disinfection cabinet, while the core element is ozone glass tubes Q1 and Q2. And they form the ozone generating circuit with bidirectional thyristor VS and boost transformer T. When the AC power supply is in the negative half cycle, the diode VD3 gets conduction, VD4 is deadline, VS is turned off, then the power is charging for C9, and charging current flowing direction is AC power supply L side → R11 → L1 → C9 → N terminal. When the power supply is in the positive half cycle, VD3 is cut off, VD4 gets conduction, VS gets conduction, and the sufficient charge C9 makes instantaneous discharge through L1 → VS, then L1 generates larger transient discharge current induction in L2 and higher induced voltage.   (View)
