- Stephen WoodwardAwhile back I published a simple design idea for a thermal airspeed sensor based on a self-heated Darlington transistor pair (Ref, 1). The resulting sensor is simple, sensitive, and solid-state, but suffers from a radically nonlinear airspeed ...Apr 4, 2024
- Anthony SmithA previous Design Idea [ 1 ] outlined a relatively simple circuit in which a momentary pushbutton could be made to function like a latching, mechanical switch. The article generated a good deal of reader feedback. Amongst other comments, readers ...Mar 28, 2024
- Nick CornfordAt the end of the DI for a Simple log-scale audio meter (Ref. 1), I promised to show how to upgrade it to work better. With these fixes, it now has near-digital performance, with faster response and smoother operation. Even this supersized version ...Mar 21, 2024
- Stephen WoodwardWhen a design needs auxiliary voltage rails and the associated current loads are modest, capacitor pump voltage multipliers are often the simplest, cheapest, and most efficient way to make them. The simplest of these is the diode pump voltage ...Mar 14, 2024
- Stephen WoodwardWhen analog circuits mix with digital, the former are sometimes dissatisfied with the latter’s usual single supply rail. This creates a need for additional, often negative polarity, voltage sources that are commonly provided by capacitive ...Mar 13, 2024
- Peter DemchenkoThe logic probe is powered from the device under test (DUT) it may be any binary logic, which can be powered in the range +2 V to +6 V. This may be a microcontroller or 74/54 series logic chips, including HC/HCT chips. The probe determines 3 ...Mar 7, 2024
- Stephen WoodwardDifferential temperature measurement is a handy way to quantify the performance of heatsinks, thermoelectric coolers (TECs), and thermal control in electronic assemblies. Figure 1 illustrates an inexpensive design for a high-resolution differential ...Mar 6, 2024
- Francesc CasanellasThe circuit in Figure 1 shows an electronic switch driven by a momentary pushbutton, which turns the power alternately on and off. It was designed for battery-powered equipment. The easiest way to implement it is to use a flip-flop IC, such as the ...Feb 26, 2024
- Stephen WoodwardAvoiding op-amp output saturation error by keeping op-amp outputs “live” and below zero volts is a job where a few milliamps and volts (or even fractions of one volt) of regulated negative rail can be key to achieving accurate analog ...Feb 9, 2024
- Tracy AllenFig 1’s circuit, which was developed to monitor the traffic of bumblebees into and out of the hive, differentiates “a-to-b” motion from “b-to-a” motion. When used with an optical decoder, the circuit distinguishes ...Feb 1, 2024
