Open Loop Fast Peak Detector

In this peak detector circuit, D1 is the detector diode and D2 is a level shifting or compensating diode. A load resistor RL is connected to – 5V and an identical bias resistor, RB, is used to bias the compensating diode. This equal value resistors RL and RB make sure that the diode drops are equal.
fast peak detection open loop circuit schematic diagram
High values of RB and RL provide good low frequency accuracy but cause the amplifier to slew rate limit, resulting in poor high frequency accuracy. Low values of RB and RL (1k to 10k) yield in fast response, at the expense of poor low frequency accuracy. Adding a feedback capacitor CFB, which improve the negative slew rate on the (–) input, is the solution to improve high frequency accuracy.

Capacitance Meter Circuit

Capacitance meter is one instrument that you should have in your toolbox if you are an electronics hobbyist, or if you’re a professional electronic technician. If you can’t afford to buy such instrument or you you can’t find it on your local store then here is the good news: you can build your own capacitance meter. You can build a capacitance meter adapter to interface? between the capacitor to be measured and your general purpose voltmeter to read the capacitance value. Here is the schematic diagram of the circuit:
capacitance meter circuit circuit schematic diagram
Just install a connector in place of voltmeter symbol, and now you can plug your analog or digital voltmeter to read the capacitance. If you use a digital one, then make sure if your digital voltmeter averages the signal reading with long time constant (over 1/10 second). Many low-cost digital voltmeter (DVM) usually is a dual slope integrator type that do the job. If your DVM is a fast sampling type then you should insert an RC filter, a 1k resistor and a 10uF electrolytic capacitor should be sufficient. More information about this circuit design can be found at [Source: http://www.hqew.net/circuit-diagram/Capacitance-Meter-Circuit_3380.html ]

Inductance Meter Adapter Circuit, Turns Your Digital Voltmeter to Inductance Meter

Measuring inductance is important in making your hand-made inductors, especially when you do-it-yourself (DIY) your coil winding. An inductance meter adapter circuit would be helpful since you can measure inductance using your general purpose digital voltmeter (DVM). This circuit cost much cheaper compared to already made inductance meter instrument. Here is the scehamtic diagram of the circuit:
inductance meter circuit circuit schematic diagram
The circuit is very simple, containing only one voltage regulator chip and one NAND gates chip. This inductance meter adapter provide two measurement range, low range for measuring 3uH to 500uH inductor values, and high range for 100uH to 5mH. Calibrating this inductance meter is easy. First you need to calibrate the zero offset. Connect your DVM to the output of this circuit, and select 200mV range for the DVM. Short the inductor measurement probe and adjust the sero calibration to give zero volt reading on your DVM. To calibrate the low range, pick a known inductor around 400uH. Select 2V range for your DVM. Measure the inductor and adjust the low-cal pot to give 1mV per uH inductance. For example if you use a 390uH then you should adjust the low calibration pot to give 390mV reading on your DVM. To calibrate the high range, switch the range of the adapter circuit to high, and use it to measure a known inductor with values around 5 mH. Calibrate the high-cal pot to give 100mV reading per 1 mH inductance.

Variable Voltage lm723 power supply

Here is a variable voltage regulator using LM723 circuits. ThisLM723 power supply?have output on 1.3-12.2v 1A and over current protection. 2 sets the output voltage regulator. The maximum current is determined by the value of R3: the over-current protection circuitry inside theLM723 power supplysenses the voltage across R3 and starts shutting the output stage off as soon as this voltage approaches 0.65 V. C3 and C4, both ceramic, must be placed as close as possible to the integrated circuit, because theLM723 power supplycan be prone to unwanted oscillations. This way the current through R3 can never exceed 0.65/R3, even if the output is shorted.

Audio PreAmp MIC (dynamic) Circuit Diagram

Here is audiopreamp mic(dinamic). 200-600-ohm output impedance and low noise pre-amplifier for dynamic microphone is ideal for strengthening. This is a three-stage discrete amplifier with gain control. Alternatives such as the  BC109C  transistors, BC548 BC549, BC549C may be used with little change in performance. Thepreamp mic?circuit first stage is built around Q1 operates in common base configuration. It can not be used in the audio stage, but in this case allow Q1 to improve low-noise operation and the overall signal to noise ratio. Q2 and Q3 form a direct coupled amplifier, similar as with my previouspreamp mic. When the signal from a dynamic microphone is low, usually much less than 10mV, then there is too little to be gained by the collector voltage of Q1 voltage to half the supply voltage. Here is a schematic PreAmp MIC:

Audio PreAmp MIC dynamic Circuit Diagram 400x224 Audio PreAmp MIC (dynamic) Circuit Diagram
In power amplifiers, bias, half the supply voltage allows maximum voltage and maximum overload margin, but where the input is low, any value in the linear part of the operating system is quite nature. Here Q1 operating with the collector voltage of 2.4 V and a low collector current of about 200uA. This ensures a low collector current low noise and also increase the input impedance of the stage to about 400 ohms. This is a great addition to preamp mic any dynamic microphone with an impedance between 200 and 600 ohms.

Simple Variable Voltage Regulator Circuit with LM317 circuit

Here is a simple variablevoltage regulatorusing ic LM317 circuit. Thevoltage regulatoris an  LM317T,  and should accept up to about 14 volts without problems. It can handle up to 1 amp, but you WILL need a heatsink on thevoltage regulator. If you only plan to use items that run on one voltage, this is a very useful feature and will save plugging in and damaging your valuable (or not so valuable) equipment. You can even add a relay to switch off the power if the over voltage LED turns on, but bear in mind it will have to work from the voltage of the zener diode right up to the input voltage. The over voltage LED uses a zener diode to switch on the LED at a certain preset voltage, this can be varied depending on the voltage of the zener diode, I used a 6.2v zener diode.

Door minder electronic project

This door minder electronic project uses an IR beam to monitor door & passage-ways or any other area. When the IR beam is broken a relay is tripped which can be used to sound a bell or alarm. This door minder electronic project is suitable for detecting customers entering a shop, cars coming up a driveway, etc. Because the IR beam is very strong distances over 25 yards can be monitored with electronic circuit . This circuit must be powered from a 12volt DC supply .
The transmitter circuit consists of two square-wave oscillators, one running at approx. 250Hz and the other running at 38kHz. The 38kHz frequency acts as a carrier wave and is required by the IR receiver module on the receiver board.
The oscillators are made by using two 555 timer ICs set up as astable configuration multivibrators.
Another 555 timer ( IC2) is used for the 38KHz oscillator. Resistors R4 and R5 and capacitor C3 set the frequency.
Diodes D1 and D3 are used to create a symmetrical output. Normally the external capacitor C1 (C3) charges through resistors R1 and R2 (R4 and R5) and discharges through R2 (R5). Without the diodes this output waveform would have a longer “high” time than the “low” time.
The output from the IC1 is coupled via diode D2 and resistor R3 to the trigger input of IC2. When the IC1 output is low it stops IC2 from running and IC2’s output is forced high (no IR LED current). When IC1 output is high, IC2 runs and the IR LED is pulsed at 38KHz.
The receiver module consists of an IR receiver module that detects the incoming beam from the transmitter. The IR signal is used to keep a capacitor charged which in turn holds a relay operated. When the beam is broken the capacitor discharges and the relay releases.

DC motor speed control circuit diagram using 555 timer

A very simple dc motor speed controller circuit can be designed using circuit that can be used to design a small drill project.
Q1, Q2 and U2 form a variable-frequency pulse width modulator, controlled by U3. Q4 forms part of a step-down power converter.
Speed regulation is accomplished by sensing the motor current with R17 and using it as positive feedback to compensate for motor resistance loss. The gain pot should be set to a point just below the point where the motor speed oscillates. After finding this point, you may want to change the value of R11 to get better speed control range.
Q3 limits motor current. D4 and C8 capture some of L1’s inductive kick to produce a loosely regulated -12 volts for U3. SCR1 acts like the usual flyback diode once C8 has stored the needed energy, preventing significant power losses.
This motor speed controller electronic project needs to be powered from a DC power supply from 12 volt up to 15 volt .
This speed regulator circuit is very simple an require common electronic components like 555 timer, operational amplifiers , transistors and passive components.

LMD18245 bipolar stepper motor controller circuit

Using the LMD18245 full-bridge power amplifier that incorporates all the circuit blocks required to drive and control current in a brushed type DC motor or one phase of a bipolar stepper motor can be designed various motor applications.
The LMD18245  controls the motor current via a fixed off-time chopper technique.
An all DMOS H-bridge power stage delivers continuous output currents up to 3A (6A peak) at supply voltages up to 55V.
The DMOS power switches feature low RDS(ON) for high efficiency, and a diode intrinsic to the DMOS body structure eliminates the discrete diodes typically required to clamp bipolar power stages.
An innovative current sensing method eliminates the power loss associated with a sense resistor in series with the motor.
A four-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) provides a digital path for controlling the motor current, and, by extension, simplifies implementation of full, half and microstep stepper motor drives .
This LMD18245 circuit application is a power stage of a chopper drive for bipolar stepper motors. The 20 kΩ resistor and 2.2 nF capacitor connected between RC and ground set
the off-time at about 48 μs, and the 20 kΩ resistor connected between CS OUT and ground sets the gain at about 200 mA per volt of the threshold for chopping. Digital signals control
the thresholds for chopping, the directions of the winding currents, and, by extension, the drive type (full step, half step, etc.). A μprocessor or μcontroller usually provides the digital control signals.
For this bipolar stepper motor driver electronic circuit you will need a 5 volt DC power supply for logic control and a 40 volt DC for powering driver .

Cable tester electronic project

A cable tester device can be built using electronic diagram below.
Using electronic diagram below can test concomitant eight pairs of cable.
Electronic scheme is simple and consists of a clock generator (N1 ... N3) that control the 4-bit counter IC2. From all eight outputs of IC1, one is logical "0" during a certain period of tact. This signal then reaches trough inverters N5…N12 to clips cable connection. The other end of the cable is connected to the N13 .... N20 gates inputs. Among the outputs of these gates and the appropriate output of IC1 is located LEDs (D1 ... D16).
Odd-numbered LEDs (D1, D3, D5 ...) lights when output is in the state corresponding NAND logical "0" and while the corresponding output of IC1 is in state "1" logic. Even-numbered LEDs (D2, D4, D6 ...) lights only when NAND output is in state "1" logic and the corresponding output of IC1 is in state "0" logic.
If one cable is disrupted, the NAND gate output connected to it remains in state "0" logic, the two LEDs belonging to this output, diode corresponding odd number lights. At a correct binding, LEDs remain off, because when anode and cathode potentials oscillate at the same rate. Short-circuits between the cables are shown as in this case an even number LED anode is 1 and cathode is a "0" LED lights.
As long as no cable is not connected, the odd number LEDs lights.

Operational amplifier tester electronic project

Using this scheme can achieve an electronic tester for operational amplifiers. This tester allows a quick functional verification of operational amplifiers. For test this amplifier is connected as a simple square wave generator.
When S1 is pressed, the noninverting input of operational amplifier reaches a reference voltage which is the result of the output voltage divider R2/R3 voltage. Capacitor C1 is charged via R1 until the voltage at the inverting input is equal to the reference voltage. Since the operational amplifier working as a comparator, the output switch and reference voltage gets opposite polarity. Capacitor C1 charge properly again until the voltage reaches the reference voltage.
When operational amplifier output potential test is positive, T1 conducts and D1 LED lights, and if the operational amplifier is switched and output to a low potential, T2 conducts and D2 LED lights.

12 Exist Problems in The LED Lighting Industry

There are 12 exist problems in the led lighting industry.

1. LED color issues
Single LED applications basically does not exist the problem of chromatic aberration, but if a large number of LED to be put into use or a lamp with multiple LEDs, will highlight the problem of chromatic aberration to first say a group of lamps, if a glance the light of the inconsistent color, I want a happy mood they want to make a discount as LUXEON LED according to the color temperature is divided into eight military region, right in several residential and then in each Military Region, in a certain extent, a wide range of chromatic aberration control, but the same color area with a number of LED differences still exist, and this difference still can not run away to the naked eye provocation.

2. LED Insulation
(Insulation mentioned here refers to heat the substrate of the LED's positive and negative) would not say that we first discovered the insulation of the LED, but at least the big manufacturers questioned feel scared it is currently not resolved simply just take stop-gap measure, such as aluminum substrate to the insulation (the first aluminum plate did not do insulation, now almost all do) and we may think we can not understand. single LED is not insulated, has little effect on the series of many stars on a problem.

3. LED against pulse
This issue with the manufacturer remains controversial, in my actual application does exist, the main reaction in the cold pulse on power-on moment, the moment of a small number of LEDs in the cold state power breakdown or disconnect my opinion, is not static or high pressure due to (power voltage is within range)

4. LED light-emitting angle
Various manufacturers of LED lens package is not the same even if the same light angle (nominal angle), the effect is not the same, making the selection of poly mask difficult, to still not universal.

5. The hidden dangers of the potentially blinding LED
LED light points makes the center of brightness and super too concentrated, it is easy to hurt people's eyes, although some of the lighting manufacturers make efforts in this regard, but because of regulatory lag, only the moral problem of man.

6. LED heating problem
In theory, the LED is not very heat, but because of the immaturity of the current technology, the LED heat Yishi well known, I do not want to say.

7. The LED efficiency is low (luminous efficiency)
LED power conversion efficiency is too low (because there is no device to test, not giving specific figures).

8. The LED brightness is insufficient
Brightness is insufficient, making the current LED lighting industry can only play a supporting role, mainly used for decoration.

9. The LED light fades and life
Produced by the Mainland or Taiwan businessmen LED light  fades and life problems more serious, without further ado, the big-name vendors, such as the LUXEON nominal 100,000 hours, I am afraid only of their own psychological clearly, together with the thermal solution is good or bad, drive the matches are likely to affect the LED light decline and life expectancy 100,000 hours is just a selling point to!

10. The LED drive power
Most of the drive lines are borrowed from the switching power supply from the course, a very small number of lines is dedicated to the LED driver, but the effect is basically the same, due to the LED need DC drive, take the constant current control, the drive circuit is very large and can not compared with electronic transformer, and the efficiency is relatively low, reaching 80% to operator (single has not yet reached). In addition, firms in pursuit of applicability, the claim that a drive belt to ten random access (one, two , ..... all OK), in fact, this is a misunderstanding, although it is a constant current, high starting voltage will often LED to death in an instant.

11. LED modeling is limited
Makes the shape of the LED lamps LED single-sided light-emitting characteristics, subject to certain restrictions.

12. The LED unit price is too high
An import 1W-3W LED should be about three dollars, but also made more than 10 blocks (of poor quality, intellectual property rights) and about a 6 LED lamps sold to the hands of consumers, almost more than 1000 yuan RMB , Do you want to buy a color TV or buy a lamp.

Infrared beam barrier and a proximity detector circuit with IC 555

infrared detector circuit
infrared detector circuit
Welcome again ,Free circuit dot com have the circuit can be used as an infrared beam barrier and a proximity detector.
The circuit uses the very popular Sharp IR module (Vishay module can also be used). NOS pin. circuit is shown in the Sharp and Panasonic modules. For other modules please refer to the relevant datasheets.
The receiver consists of a 555 timer IC  working as an oscillator at about 38Khz (also works from 36kHz to 40kHz), which must be configured using the standard 10K. The duty cycle of the IR beam is about 10%. This allows us to more current through the LED, allowing a greater range.
The receiver uses a sharp IR unit. If the IR beam from the transmitter IR drops, the output is activated, which activates the relay and turns off when the beam is blocked. The relay contacts can be used to turn ON / OFF alarm, lights etc. The 10K advance should be adjusted until the receiver detects the IR beam.
The circuit can also be used as a proximity sensor that objects in front of the device detects without obstructing a IR beam. So the LED has the same direction as the IR module and at the same level. The proposed scheme is shown in diagram. The LED should be adequately covered with a reflective material like glass or aluminum plates on the sides to stop the spread of the IR beam to prevent and get a sharp focus the beam.
When there is nothing for them, the IR beam reflected on the unit and therefore the circuit is not activated. When an object comes near the device, the infrared light from the LED reflected from the object on the unit and therefore the circuit is activated.
If there is still a very bad start, use a 1uF or higher capacitor instead of the 0.47uF.

Infrared remote control tester circuit with Radio Shack 276-137

infrared remote tester circuit 
infrared remote tester circuit
Today,Free Circuit dot com would like to show you?used small infrared remote control tester circuit for controlling the operation of an infrared remote control.?
This is a fairly simple circuit for TV and VCR can be used to test remote controls. The infrared detector module (GP1U52X) (Radio Shack 276-137) provides a 5 volt TTL pulse train corresponding to the digital code to the button of the remote control. In the lower circuit, the module output normally low a signal and a positive going pulse train when a signal is present. Other detector modules that an inverted output is in the upper drawing, which showed type I, but I do not have the part number, I think from a video recorder.
The pulse sequence, the digital codes of special keys is available with information directly from the manufacturer. Since the pulse train occurs, the 4.7uF capacitor charges to approximately 3 volts and the capacitor voltage minus a diode drop appears above the 470-ohm resistor, a collector current of the 2N3904 or 2N3906 about 5 milliamperes. The collector current of the first stage flows into the base of the output transistor (2N3053  or MJE34), which provides about 250 mA in direction.
If the pulse train ends of the capacitor discharged slowly through the bottom of the first transistor stage left, the Christmas tree lights for about 1 second. The little Christmas lights will operate over a wide voltage range, so you can use bulbs from almost any string, but spheres of short strings (35 or less) will probably run longer at least 5 volts.
The circuit can be a small 9-12 volt DC, 250 mA wall transformer or operated higher. It can also be an additional 1000 uF capacitor filter on the DC output if the wall transformer no built-in capacitor. For use with a 9 volt battery, the light bulbs are replaced by a simple LED and 680 Ohm resistor and the output transistors by low signal transistor (2N3904 or 2N3906) can be replaced. The total power is about 25 mA with LED lights, standby and 15 mA when the LED should be.

ADSL and DSL Inline Phone Filter Circuit

DSL Filter Circuit 
DSL Filter Circuit
When the ADSL and PSTN works on the same line at the same time, a problem the electronics in a normal telephone for high frequency signals ADSL: ADSL signals can be reduced (with high capacity intercom can be resonances in the phone, impedance mismatch ) and ADSL signals can be heard as the sound on some phones (electronic phone demodulates RF signal is out of range voting frequency noise). Just to keep these systems and stop interfering with each other, it is necessary for the two components of the telephone in your home to separate.
This is where the filter / splitter comes in. The ADSL POTS splitter / filter allows you to take full advantage of the frequency 1.1 MHz copper line to take, stopping the ADSL and phone systems interfere with each others.
An ADSL filter is normally a small plastic box with a short cable that connects to your telephone jack and two outputs, one for your ADSL modem and a telephone. Some filters have an exit by calling them. ADSL filter to the frequency band for each of the outlets, telephone or ADSL to select just the right tire and sending in the socket. The output of the phone is not receiving phone frequencies (from DC to 3.4 kHz) and the output is higher and ADSL freuquencies (above 25 kHz).
For good system performance, it is very important that all your other phone equipment is separated from the ADSL signals using a splitter / filter – This equipment includes telephones, answering machines, “normal” modems, etc., etc. .

Increase current for IC regulator Circuit

Increase current for IC regulator circuit 
Increase current for IC regulator circuit
Although the 78xx series of voltage regulators with different power outputs, you can compare the power generation by stimulating this circuitry. A power transistor is used to provide additional power to the load of the regulator, maintaining a constant voltage.
?Currents up to 650mA is flowing through the regulator, begins above this value and the power transistor to run, which provides additional power to the load. This must be a sufficient heat sink, because it is probably pretty hot.
Suppose you use a 12V regulator, 7812th Input must be a few volts higher to allow for voltage drops. Take 20 volts. Let us also assume that the load to draw 5A.
The power dissipation in the transistorVce * Ic or (20-12) * 8 = 40 Watt.
There you stay warm in the winter, but you will have a large heatsink with good thermal dissipation needs do. Do you want the output current with a negative regulator, such as increasing the 79xx series, then the circuit is similar, but a kind of power NPN transistor is used instead

Simple Variable Frequency by 555

Here is a very simple circuit utilising a 555 timer IC  to generate square wave of frequency that can be adjusted by a potentiometer. With values given the frequency can be adjusted from a few Hz to several Khz. To get very low frequencies replace the 0.01uF capacitor with a higher value. The formula to calculate the frequency is given by: 1/f = 0.69 * C * ( R1 2*R2). The duty cycle is given by: % duty cycle = 100*(R1 R2)/(R1 2*R2). In order to ensure a 50% (approx.) duty ratio, R1 should be very small when compared to R2. But R1 should be no smaller than 1K. A good choice would be, R1 in kilohms and R2 in megaohms. You can then select C to fix the range of frequencies.

Simple vu Meter Analog Circuit

Here is vu meter analog circuit. The circuit is left connected to the line terminals of the amplifier. The VU meter is quite simple. T1 and T2 signal increase. The signal is then rectified by two diodes and fed to the meter. The capacitors C3 and C4 ensure that the voltage is slightly flattened and the meter responds less quickly. After building the circuit must be calibrated. To this end, the VU meter connected to a tone generator that delivers 0.3 V at 1000 Hz. Then P1 turned completely, ie the bishop of P1 lies at the entrance. P2 is then cut so that the meter is full deflection controls. Then P1 meter set to 0.5 mA (= half results) indicates. For a stereo VU meter circuit should be built twice.

Single Supply Phase Locked Loop

This circuit will function accurately over a 10:1 frequency range from 1 kHz to 10 kHz, but will not respond as quickly as the basic wide range phase locked loop (PLL). The reason is the use of the CD4046 frequency detector. When an FIN edge occurs ahead of a F feedback pulse, pin 13 of the CD4046  pulls up on C1 via R1 = 1 kW. This current cannot be controlled or manipulated over as wide a range as “I1” in basic wide range phase locked loop (PLL). As a consequence, the response of this PLL is never as smooth nor fast-settling as the basic PLL, but it is still better behaved than most F-to-V converters. Show a picture schematic :
Single Supply Phase Locked Loop circuit Single Supply Phase Locked Loop
Q1 = 2N3565 OR 2N3904 HIGH BETA NPN
A1, A2, A3 = 1/4 LM324
ON CD4046, PINS 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12 ARE NO CONNECTION
USE STABLE, LOW-T.C. PARTS FOR COMPONENTS MARKED*
VS = 7 TO 15 VDC
As with the basic PLL, the detector feeds a current to be integrated in C1 (and R2 provides the necessary “lead”). A1 acts simply as a buffer for the R1, C1 integrator. A3, optional, can provide a nicely filtered output. And A2 servos Q1, drawing a current out of C6 which is proportional to V2. Here the LM331 acts as a current-to-frequency converter, and F output is precisely proportional to the collector current of Q1. As with the basic circuit, this PLL can be used as a quick and/or quiet F-to-V converter, or as a frequency multiplier. One of the most important uses of an F-to-V is to demodulate the frequency of a V-to-F converter, which may be situated at a high common-mode voltage, isolated by photoisolators, or to recover a telemetered signal. An F-to-V converter of this sort can provide good bandwidth for demodulating such a signal.
