.. 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. ...
.. subsided. The circuit of Figure 1 allows analysis of noise or mechanical bounce within time intervals set by a simple peak detector with an associated comparator. Switch-contact resistance then can be read automatically through the ...

.. battery life. A better method involves a technique borrowed from simple field-strength meters: a tuned circuit and a diode detector. Figure 1 shows the complete circuit, which was tested for proof-of-concept at 445 MHz. This circuit ...
.. longer than the set width are to be detected, ignoring the other short pulses. We are familiar with the missing pulse detector circuit, which detects the occurrence of a missing pulse in a pulse train where the pulses are of equal ...
Fig 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 ...
.. voltage and, as such, it is not that convenient for many applications. This Design Idea describes a portable water-leak detector that uses a common 9 V battery for power (Figure 1). The circuit consumes less than 10 uA during ...
.. since these components can add distortion. NP0 and silver-mica type dielectric capacitors have excellent linearity, and metal-film surface-mount resistors are much less susceptible than carbon surface-mount resistors to generating ...
.. a 4538 single-chip, dual monostable multivibrator. Depending on the speed required for the application, the IC could be a metal-gate device, a 74HC, or a 74HCT type. Figure 1. The direction discriminator circuit is based on a dual ...
