Two Pushbutton Motor Controller
Two small pushbutton switches, a few diodes and two relays form a method to
control on/off power to a brush motor as well as the motor direction. The
circuit was originally designed for a motorized lifting platform.

Watchdog reset catcher aids embedded system debugging - 11/19/98
EDN-Design Ideas A simple "junk-box" circuit uses a 4013 CMOS
flip-flop and a handful of passive components to determine whether random
resets are the result of a blown stack or the result of the watchdog-reset
circuit tripping (Figure 1]. You can also use this circuit to "grab" and
hold.... [Design Idea by Scott Newell, PCSI, Fort Smith, AR] |

Watchdog Time Out is Independent of Reset - 09/01/95 EDN-Design
Ideas Many embedded systems use µP supervisors with on-chip watchdog
timers. Some supervisors, such as the MAX691, allow you to select different
watchdog and reset time-out periods, depending on how you connect pin 7 (Osc
In] and pin 8 (Osc Sel]. Table 1 in the MAX691 data sheet indicates the
available watchdog and reset time-out choices. However, when you implement....

Watchdog timer allows entry to test-mode - 19-Jul-01 Issue of EDN
Manuals for microprocessor-based devices often include instructions for
entering a "secret mode" in which you can test or reset the device. These
instructions typically ask you to depress and hold one or two switches for a
minimum time interval. You can adopt several measures to avoid accidentally
triggering the test mode Depress two keys, hold both keys simultaneously
and continuously throug.... [Design Idea by Greg Sutterlin and Larry Barnes,

| Watchdog Timer Assumes Varied Roles -
The following application note demonstrates alternative uses for the
MAX6369-MAX6374 family of pinselectable watchdog timers. Alternative uses
include a power saving power-on LED indicator circuit, load connect/disconnect
circuit and push-button reset circuit. (Maxim APPLICATION NOTE 582)

Watchdog Timer Reboots PC's - 06/05/97 EDN-Design Ideas When
you use a PC to control a process or collect data, it's often desirable to
have a watchdog timer reboot the computer if it runs astray. The circuit in
Figure 1 uses a PIC16C84.… [Design Idea by Charles Hamilton, Burr-Brown Corp,

|
Wideband AGC has 60 DB Dynamic Input Range - 10/10/96 EDN-Design
Ideas: Automatic-gain-control (AGC] circuits serve in many applications to
maintain signals at fixed levels. However, in applications such as
digital-receiver circuits and back-channel modems, the function of the AGC
often aims more at increasing dynamic input range through the controlled
application of both gain and attenuation. In this type of application, the AGC
is usually upstream of a high-speed ADC. The.... [Design Idea by Carl Dickey,
