Use printer port as programmable frequency generator - 11-Oct-01
Issue of EDN A simple and inexpensive circuit (Figure 1] and a
simple C program (Listing 1] are all you need to turn your PC's printer
port into a programmable frequency generator. Using a few low-cost and
readily available components, the circuit occupies little space and is
easily attachable to the printer port.... [Design Idea by K Kanniappan,

Use time domain analysis of Zobel network - 27-Jun-02 Issue of
EDN A Zobel network is useful in making a reactive load appear as a
pure resistance to a driving source prone to stability problems (Reference
1]. A typical situation is an audio power amplifier driving a loudspeaker,
modeled at first approximation as an inductance and a series resistor
(Figure 1a]. The addition of a series R2C network in parallel with the
series R1L network forms a Zobel network.... [Design Idea by Noël Boutin,

Use two picogate devices for bidirectional level shifting -
11-Nov-04 Issue of EDN In new mixed-voltage systems, it is often
necessary to level-shift a control signal from a high level to a low
level. An open-drain device, such as the 74LVC1G07, easily performs this
shift. However, when a bidirectional signal requires level-shifting, it
takes a bitcircuitry, because simply tying two open-drain devices pins
together generates just a latch function.... [Design Idea by Bob Marshall,

Useless Masked µCS Make Useful PC Peripherals - 06/18/98 EDN-Design Ideas
A software bug or a new code revision can often render hundreds of masked µCs all but
useless for production purposes. However, by tapping into the 68HC11's bootstrap mode,
you can attach these µCs to a PC's RS-232C serial port and put them to work. In the
MC68HC11E9, 512 bytes of RAM are available....File contains several Design Ideas,
