The circuit produces accurate pulses whose time can easily be adjusted, based on the R1 x C1 time constant. The time should not change,. . . Circuit by David A. Johnson P.E.-September, 2010
Advertising Badge #1 with Flashing LED - I have seen numerous flashing light badges at trade shows and conventions. They are often handed out as gifts to promote some business. The devices often use inefficient circuits, which cause the battery power source to be quickly depleted. . . Circuit by Dave Johnson P.E.-March, 2002
Advertising Badge #2 with Flashing LED - This circuit uses a CD4013 dual D Flip/Flop IC. A single lithium battery will provide months of continuous LED flashing. It also has a tiny push-button switch to turn on and off the light flashing. . . Circuit by David Johnson P.E.-March, 2002

Automatic Timeout included with this On/Off Flip/flop Circuit - This circuit is ideal when a device needs to be turned on and off with a single pushbutton switch, but also needs to turn itself off after some period of time. With the components shown, the output will stay on for only about 20 seconds . . . Hobby Circuit designed by David A. Johnson P.E.-May, 2012
Battery-Powered LED Flashing Advertising #2 - This circuit is similar to flashing LED advertising badge #1. It uses a CD4013 dual D Flip/Flop IC. The 74HCT74 IC in #81 does not always work. As in #81, a single lithium battery will provide months of continuous LED flashing. . . . Hobby Circuit designed by David Johnson P.E.-March, 2002
Bistable Flip flop - Here are two examples of bistable flip flops which can be toggled between states with a single push button. When the button is pressed, the capacitor connected to the base of the conducting transistor will charge to a slightly higher voltage. When the button is released, the same capacitor will discharge back to the previous voltage causing the transistor to turn off. The rising voltage at the collector of the transistor that is turning off causes the opposite transistor to turn on and the circuit remains in a stable state until the next time the button is pressed and released. __ Designed by

Build a Simple Circuit Complementary-Bracket-Pulse Generator - 20-Aug-09 EDN-Design Ideas When building push-pull switching power converters or motor controllers, you often need alternating pulses with a small amount of dead time between them to minimize simultaneous conduction in output-switching devices. Switching controller ICs have this feature, but they usually operate Design by Horst Koelzow, Global Thermoelectric, Calgary, AB, Canada
Build a UWB Pulse Generator On an FPGA - 06/23/11 EDN-Design Ideas Make pulses that reach twice an FPGA's clock frequency. You can implement a digital UWB (ultrawideband) pulse generator in most FPGAs. The design lets you create a pulsed signal with a frequency that’s twice the FPGA’s clock frequency (Figure 1). A previous design relies on asynchronous delays to make pulses of the desired frequency. That design, however, requires an FPGA that supports tristate pullups, such as the Xilinx Virtex 2 (Reference 1).

Toggle Flip Flop using Laser Pointer - The circuit below uses a CMOS
dual D flip flop (CD4013) to toggle a relay or other load with a momentary push button. Several push buttons can be wired in parallel to control the relay from multiple locations. A high level from the push button is coupled to the set line through a small (0.1uF) capacitor. The high level from the Q output __ Designed by Bill Bowden
