Circuits Designed by Dave Johnson, P.E. : |
- 10MHz TO
20MHz LASER LIGHT DETECTOR
This circuit was originally designed to detect laser light pulses for an optical
Ethernet communications system. It has good ambient light immunity.
|
|
- 20MHz VCSEL
3mW LASER TEST CIRCUIT
This circuit takes advantage of some new vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSEL)
that don’t require light output control circuits. The circuit shows how to drive the
device from a single high speed CMOS IC. The circuit can easily be modified to
transmit signals from kilohertz to about 50MHz.
|
- BROAD BAND
5MHz OPTICAL FIBER RECEIVER
This circuit is a simple broad band light detector that uses a very inexpensive IC
and a PIN photodiode that is packaged for use with plastic optical fibers. It has a
bandwidth from 1KHz to over 5MHz. It is great for
experimenting with various modulated light sources.
|
- BROAD BAND
2MHz OPTICAL FIBER RECEIVER
If you need more sensitivity than the above circuit this circuit provides about ten
times more gain. It too is designed around an inexpensive plastic optical fiber
detector.

- C-MOS
INVERTER MAKES LOW POWER AMP
With the addition of one resistor and a capacitor, some common logic ICs can be
transformed from digital to analog duties. This circuit outlines some the
features to expect from different inverter ICs.

5 Watt HF CW transmitter - This is a very simple 5 watt CW TX based upon a TTL
logic chip. There is just one "tricky" component and this is Cx. This component
should have an impedance of about 10 - 50 ohms at the frequency of interest. If you wish
to reduce the transmitter power, increase the value of Cx. It is Cx which causes the
square wave from the output transistor to approximate a sine waveform. The value of Cx is
the price of simplicity in this TX.... [from Harry Lythall's website] |

Active Antenna for Am-Fm-Sw - This simple little circuit can be used for AM, FM,
and Shortwave(SW). On the shortwave band this active antenna is comparable to a 20 to 30
foot wire antenna. It is further more designed to be used on receivers that use
untuned wire antennas, such as inexpensive units and car radios.... [Tony van Roon's

Build an adjustable high-frequency notch filter - 6-Feb-03 Issue of EDN
Although you can obtain universal, resistor-programmable switched-capacitor filters that
are configurable as notch filters, most cannot operate at bandwidths higher than 100 kHz.
Further, the typically 16- to 20-pin packages do not include a continuous-time,
antialiasing filter to prevent spurious signals from appearing at the output.... [Design

Composite Amp Provides High-Gain & Bandwidth - 04/28/94 EDN-Design Ideas
The composite circuit in Fig 1 couples the output drive and slew rate of a
current-feedback amplifier, IC2, with the low-noise and low-offset characteristics of a
voltage-feedback operational amplifier, IC1. The circuit achieves gains as high as 1000,
while showing little variation in frequency characteristics with gain. This circuit
suits applications..../....[Design Idea added 04/02] EDN migrating links. This link is not
