Circuit forms adjustable Bipolar clamp:  11/22/01 EDN Design Ideas  /  (added 1/05)  The easy way to clamp a signal to a given value is to use two zener diodes, connected back-to-back. This method has several disadvantages. The accuracy of the clamping depends on the tolerance of the zener diodes, and the clamping is not adjustable, except by changing diodes. The circuit in Figure 1 is a bipolar clamper with a range of 1 to 10V, with the clamping level a fun... ...

Controller IC and one shot form resonant Controller:  11/28/02 EDN Design Ideas  /  (added 1/05)  Resonant power supplies are popular because of high efficiency, low noise, and compactness. You can implement a resonant buck or boost converter using a single switch. The regulation of the output in such a converter derives from using a constant on or off time and a variable frequency. The UC1864 controller IC (Texas Instruments, www....

Dual One Shot Makes Rising and Falling Edge Detector:  03/04/99 EDN-Design Ideas / (added 6/03) The design in Figure 1 is an upgradded version of the circuit in a previous Design Idea (" Edge detector runs off single supply ," EDN, Dec 4, 1997, pg 140). It has fewer components, draws less current, and has higher input impedance. The circuit uses a 4098 dual monostable multivibrator with both sections connected. ....

Monostable Makes Low Cost F/ Volt Converter:  02/18/99 EDN-Design Ideas / (added 6/03) The circuit in Figure 1 is a low-cost frequency-to-voltage (F/V) converter. Using a monostable (one-shot) multivibrator, the circuit accepts an open-collector square wave that varies in frequency from 0 to 10 kHz. The one-shot produces a pulse of a fixed width each time the input signal triggers it. The result is a variable-frequency, variable-duty-cycle signal at the output of the one-shot. The time constant determined by R2C1, 100 µsec, determines the width of the pulses the one-shot produces. This time matches the period of the maximum input frequency (10 kHz). The duty cycle of the one-shot's output is thus 100% when the input is at its maximum frequency....

One shot provides frequency discrimination:  05/01/03 EDN Design Ideas  /  (added 1/05)  You use a frequency discriminator to compare one signal frequency with another one. A functional feature, retriggering, of a monostable, one-shot 74xx123 multivibrator can yield frequency discrimination. Figure 1 shows a frequency discriminator that determines the relation of input-pulse frequency to a reference frequency....

Repeating One Shot yields Clean Stable Pulses:  12/08/94 EDN-Design Ideas / (added 3/03) Now and then, you need a repeating one-shot, such as a multi-shot. For example, when an input logic signal or alarm condition occurs, you may need an immediate pulse to provoke a sequence that eventually resets the condition. But, if the resetting fails, you need to keep generating pulses until the message gets through. If you give up sending pulses, something as important as an entire space mission could have to wait for an automatic reset....
