Impedance Transformer Flags Failed Fuse: 12/17/04 EDN Design Ideas / (added 5/05) Figure 1depicts a circuit that
detects the opening of a miniature circuit breaker or high-rupture-capability fuse in a high-reliability telecommunications power supply. The circuit generates an alarm when a failure changes
the impedance of an electromagnetic sensor. Traditional fault-detection circuits sense the voltage difference developed across an open fuse, leakage current flowing through...... |

Line Driver Economically Synthesizes Impedance: 01/06/94 EDN-Design Ideas / (added 6/06) The line-driver circuit
in Fig 1 uses a second op amp to synthesize the output impedance. The conventional line-driver circuit employs a single op amp having a resistor whose resistance is equal to the desired
impedance in series with the op amp's output. The principal drawback of the conventional circuit is that the single op amp must deliver twice the needed output voltage because of the large
voltage drop across the output resistor. The circuit in Fig 1is similar to the famous Howland current pump but has different resistor values. To calculate the output resistance, RO, short the
input to ground. Then.... |
