Condenser Mic Audio Amplifier

Posted by Unknown 0 comments
The compact, low-cost condenser mic audio amplifier described here provides good-quality audio of 0.5 watts at 4.5 volts. It can be used as part of intercoms, walkie-talkies, low-power transmitters, and packet radio receivers. Transistors T1 and T2 form the mic preamplifier. Resistor R1 provides the necessary bias for the condenser mic while preset VR1 functions as gain control for varying its gain. In order to increase the audio power, the low-level audio output from the preamplifier stage is coupled via coupling capacitor C7 to the audio power amplifier built around BEL1895 IC.BEL1895 is a monolithic audio power amplifier IC designed specifically for sensitive AM radio applications that delivers 1 watt into 4 ohms at 6V power supply voltage. It exhibits low distortion and noise and operates over 3V-9V supply voltage, which makes it ideal for battery operation. A turn-on pop reduction circuit prevents thud when the power supply is switched on. Coupling capacitor C7 determines low-frequency response of the amplifier. Capacitor C9 acts as the ripple-rejection filter.

Capacitor C13 couples the output available at pin 1 to the loudspeaker. R15-C13 combination acts as the damping circuit for output oscillations. Capacitor C12 provides the boot strapping function. This circuit is suitable for low-power HAM radio transmitters to supply the necessary audio power for modulation. With simple modifications it can also be used in intercom circuits.

Simple Lightning Detector

Posted by Unknown Tuesday, December 17, 2013 0 comments
Here is a VLF receiver tuned to 300 kHz designed to detect the crackle of approaching lightning. A bright lamp flashes in sychrony with the lightning bolts indicating the proximity and intensity of the storm. Figure 1 shows the simple receiver which consists of a tuned amplifier driving a modified flasher circuit.

The flasher is biased to not flash until a burst of RF energy, amplified by the 2N3904, is applied to the base of the 2N4403. The receiver standby current is about 350 microamps which is nothing at all to a couple of D cells, hardly denting the shelf life. Of course, the stormier it gets, the shorter the battery life.

Circuit diagram



For best effect, mount the lamp in an old-fashioned holder with an extra-large colored glass lense. Or construct your own fixture with a plate of textured colored glass behind a panel painted with black-crackle paint. Watch a few old science fiction movies for other ideas. A totally different approach is to mount the circuit in an empty glass jar with the antenna and bulb protruding through the top. (A malted-milk jar has a nice, red plastic lid which is easy to work and looks good.) Use a pin jack for the antenna.

The gadget looks quite home-made but fascinating. Boat owners may wish to replace the lamp with a 3-volt beeper to provide an early warning of approaching bad weather. Choose one of those unbreakable clear plastic jars like the large jars of coffee creamer. A little silicone rubber will seal the antenna hole in the lid of the jar. Use a longer antenna for increased sensitivity since there are few electrical noise sources on the lake.

Tune-up is simple: adjust the potentiometer until the regular flashing just stops. (Use a multi-turn trimmer.) When properly adjusted, the lamp will occasionally flash when large motors or appliances switch on and off and an approaching storm will give quite a show. Obviously, tune-up is a bit more difficult during stormy weather. Adjust the pot with no antenna if lightning is nearby. Tune an AM radio to the bottom of the dial to monitor the pulses that the lightning detector is receiving.

This lightning detector is not so sensitive that it will flash with every crackle heard on the radio but will only flash when storms are nearby. Increased sensitivity may be achieved by increasing the antenna length. The experienced experimenter may wish to add another gain stage after the first by duplicating the 2N3904 circuitry including capacitor coupling with the addition of a 47 ohm emitter resistor to reduce the gain somewhat.

This additional gain can cause stability problems if the layout is poor so novices are advised to use a longer antenna or adjust the sensitivity potentiometer more delicately instead! (When operating properly, the additional gain makes the pot adjustment much less critical.)

DTMF Proximity Detector

Posted by Unknown 0 comments
A DTMF-based IR transmitter and receiver pair can be used to realize a proximity detector. The circuit presented here enables you to detect any object capable of reflecting the IR beam and moving in front of the IR LED photo-detector pair up to a distance of about 12 cm from it. The circuit uses the commonly available telephony ICs such as dial-tone generator 91214B/91215B (IC1) and DTMF decoder CM8870 (IC2) in conjunction with infrared LED (IR LED1), photodiode D1, and other components as shown in the figure.

DTMF Proximity Detector Circuit Diagram

A properly regulated 5V DC power supply is required for operation of the circuit. The transmitter part is configured around dialer IC1. Its row 1 (pin 15) and column 1 (pin 12) get connected together via transistor T2 after a power-on delay (determined by capacitor C1 and resistors R1 and R16 in the base circuit of the transistor) to generate DTMF tone (combination of 697 Hz and 1209 Hz) corresponding to keypad digit “1” continuously. LED 2 is used to indicate the tone output from IC3.

This tone output is amplified by Darlington transistor pair of T3 and T4 to drive IR LED1 via variable resistor VR1 in series with fixed 10-ohm resistor R14. Thus IR LED1 produces tone-modulated IR light. Variable resistor VR1 controls the emission level to vary the transmission range. LED 3 indicates that transmission is taking place. A part of modulated IR light signal transmitted by IR LED1, after reflection from an object, falls on photodetector diode D1.

The photodetector is to be shielded from direct IR light transmission path of IR LED1 by using any opaque partition so that it receives only the reflected IR light.) On detection of the signal by photodetector, it is coupled to DTMF decoder IC2 through emitter-follower transistor T1. When the valid tone pair is detected by the decoder, its StD pin 15 (shorted to TOE pin 10) goes ‘high’. The detection of the object in proximity of IR transmitter-receiver combination is indicated by LED1.

The active-high logic output pulse (terminated at connector CON1, in the figure) can be used to switch on/off any device (such as a siren via a latch and relay driver) or it can be used to clock a counter, etc. This DTMF proximity detector finds applications in burglar alarms, object counter and tachometers, etc.

The material test of cell phone booster cannot be cancelled
Further established the worlds largest cell phone users status. Industrial scale, concentration increased as of April 2007, 41 new cell phone companies, including 11 foreign-invested enterprises, Chinese enterprises to 30, with production capacity of about 140 million while the new cell phone manufacturers in the low-end products based mainly on the Chinese market, the annual demand of about 60 million to 100 million units, made in China to exceed demand and production companies to expand the number of cell phone production growth will further exacerbate the market competition increasingly fierce competitive environment has led to an overall decline in industry profits, loss of business and the amount is increasing. cell phone booster can work continuously for a long time. On the other hand, the Chinese cell phone industry to further expand the industrial scale, while also further enhance the industrial concentration which Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Bird, Lenovo, and Amoi top ten companies account for almost the total production of all 80% of the industry, including Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson and Samsung, the market share of 81.96 percent, the domestic cell phone market share of SMEs is very limited. 72. handset industry value chain structure of the cell phone industry value chain structure divided into three two components: the upper reaches of cell phone R & D, design and component suppliers, midstream and downstream cell phone handset manufacturers brand marketers, operators in the mobile industry on a technical level, Chinas cell phone industry is still in catch-up phase, the total production level in the cell phone Chinese cell phone industry in rapid growth stage. The company only takes responsibility of changing a new cell phone booster or repairing cell phone booster .
Chinese cell phone industry cluster is still in the global value chain under the low value-added chain. Handsets needed for the production of most of the active and passive, body parts (only about 30% of production costs) can be made, but not yet fully grasp the industry core technology and key components of the production technology, and small-scale enterprises, SMEs accounted for 92.61% of the proportion of overall competitiveness. Chinese cell phone industry structure shows structural characteristics of olive shape: the upper reaches of the lack of core technology and key components industry production technology; River is gradually assembled a strong, general parts production capacity; and downstream of brand management, logistics are still weak. Upstream: cell phone design platform (chip module). Overall, Chinas cell phone industry cluster is still in the low-value-added chain of production processes and generally supporting the production of parts gathering stage of development.
