AC Power monitor uses remote sensing:  04/26/01 EDN-Design Ideas  / (added 11/05)   The detection circuit in the Design Idea "Circuit monitors ac-power loss" (EDN, Nov 24, 1999, pg 172) requires a physical connection with the mains to sense the power loss. The circuit in Figure 1 senses the power loss through the radiated power-line signal. The battery-operated circuit has a quiescent-current drain of approximately 2 µA. The antenna, which is either a telescopic antenna or simply an approximately 2-ft-long wire, intercepts the radiated power-line signal. The CMOS inverters, IC1A and IC1B, amplify this weak signal and convert it into a digital signal. D1 and C1 generate a steady dc voltage at the input of IC1C. D1 prevents discharge of C1 through the output of IC1B when the square wave at this output periodically goes to a low level. Inverters IC1D, IC1E, and IC1F connected in parallel enhance...
