Circuits Designed by Dave Johnson, P.E. :
  • Cut Phone Line Alarm
    Burglars, rapists and other criminals will often cut a phone line before they break into a home.  The cut phone line will prevent many alarm systems from alerting the police.  The battery powered circuit below will sound an alarm when the unit no longer detects the voltage present on an active phone line....

Basic FlashLamp Illumination Circuitry for Cellular Telephones/Cameras -  DN345  Design Notes (Linear Technology) (app note added 1/06)
Build A HamComm Data Slicer -  Until recently many of the ham radio operating modes required specialist equipment that most often had to by build and was exclusive to the task. Enter the Personal Computer. The PC made life a little easier for the ham as it was now able to take over some of the jobs that bespoke hardware did. But it still wasn't quite there yet. The task of the PC was mainly to be a 'front end'(circuit / schematic added 6/07)
Build your own 89C51 PABX -  This 89C51 PABX project is basically an eight line intercom from which you can call one to eight numbers. The 89C51 PABX system also supports dialling and receiving telephone calls….(circuit / schematic added 09/08)
Caller ID Circuits -  information and circuits for different systems used USA and Finland (added 5/02)
Caller ID Display Service -  Caller ID decoder based on 68HC11, text in French / (added 8/03)
 

Chip recorder customizes phone ringer -  25-Jul-02 Issue of EDN  Companies usually purchase one type of telephone for all employees, which is understandable, especially if they obtain a discount for buying in quantity. One ringer sound for everyone can pose a problem, though, if the sound of a ringing phone makes a dozen people pause and look at their telephones. Equally annoying is the absence of a visual message indicator.... [Design Idea by Don Schelle and Ted Salazar, Maxim Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, CA]
 
Circuit translates A law to m law -  05/07/98 EDN-Design Ideas....Two common methods exist to compand voice for transmission through a PCM channel. In Europe, A law involves converting a 12-bit input signal to an 8-bit encoded output. In the US, m law involves encoding 13 bits to 8 bits. You can use a translator to convert from A law to m law....NOTE  Page includes several designs, scroll to find this one....

Circuit Vocalizes Telephone Number -  02/03/94 EDN-Design Ideas....The circuit in Fig 1 is a simple method of vocalizing the digit number of a telephone keypad, which, for someone visually impaired, provides helpful voice confirmation. A 75T202 dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF]receiver decodes the DTMF signal when you depress the phone's keypad. The TC8801N voice synthesizer.... [Design Idea by Shwang-Shi Bai,  Chun-Shan Institute of Science and Technology, Lung-Tan, Taiwan]
Circuitry for Cellular Telephone/Camera Flash Illumination -  AN95 Linear TechnologyThis publication concerns implementation of high quality "Flash" illumination in cellular telephones/cameras. Performance vs LED based illumination is discussed and flashlamp operation reviewed. Considerations for support circuitry are given, and a practical circuit, accompanied by performance data,....(appnote added 1/06)
Clip extracts signal from phone line -  24-Jul-03 Issue of EDN  Using a capacitive-coupled clip, you can pick up the signal from a twisted-pair or -wire telephone line or from other unshielded analog lines without piercing the insulation. No line test can detect the clip's presence, and it leaves no evidence of having been attached. It needs no ground return. You can fasten the small, insulated pickup plates to the opposing jaws of an alligator clip for qui.... [Design Idea by Maxwell Strange, Fulton, MD]

Creating your Own Telephone Ne2 Rk -  you can easily create your own intercom system using two telephones, a 9-volt battery (or some other simple power supply) and a300-ohm resistor (added 5/02)
Cut Phone Line Alarm -  Burglars, rapists and other criminals will often cut a phone line before they break into a home.  The cut phone line will prevent many alarm systems from alerting the police.  The battery powered circuit below will sound an alarm when the unit no longer.... [Designed by David A. Johnson]
Cut Phone Line Detector -  A while ago I got an email asking for the schematic of a circuit to detect cut phone lines. It didn't take me long to find this circuit in Electronics Now. When the circuit detects that a phone line has been cut, it activates a MOSFET which can be used to drive a relay, motor, etc. It can also be connected to a security system.... [Arron Cake]
