.. Henscheid Electronic Design While creating an infrared beam intrusion detector system, the need for a beam-focusing method became evident. Parts from a modified Genie garage door ...
.. be easily modified so that it produces a falling-edge waveform that is synchronized with V AC . Figure 1. The zero-crossing detector uses few components and consumes very little power. The V O signal has a rising edge that is coincident ...
.. Bell EDN Figure 1 shows a simple, stand-alone overvoltage detector. The intent of the circuit is to monitor a voltage, V MON , and set the output, V OUT , high when the ...
.. dynamic range, but are not rms-responding. An alternative solution (Figure 1) uses the AD8361, a high-frequency true-power detector. Unlike the logarithmic amplifier, the AD8361 is an rms-to-dc converter and, therefore, responds to the ...
.. face a serious problem in using a slow ADC with a fast peak detector. The circuit in Figure 1 allows a slow ADC to measure a fast, sampled signal peak. The 100-MHz peak ...
.. multiplexing. In addition to this multiplexing, you can also use the disable function to configure the op amp as a phase detector or a frequency mixer. Figure 1 shows how the disable function can implement a low-frequency phase ...
.. that prevents the system from working properly, causing severe air pollution. Figure 1. As shown, the dc high-voltage drop detector/undervoltage alarm uses an LED for a visible indication, but the LMC555/TLC555 can also be connected to a ...
.. The most critical component is the PIN photodiode, whose selection often involves conflicting considerations. Detector sensitivity (the number of photons detected for a given radiation field), for example, depends on the ...
.. Design Idea builds on a previous one ( Reference 1 ) to realize a precision peak detector with a bandwidth of 15 to 30 MHz or more, depending on the maximum input-signal level of your ...
.. electronics designers often use peak-detector circuit sin such applications as amplitude measurement, automatic gain control, and data regeneration. ...
