Attenuators Nullify Temperature Deviations - 08/17/98 EDN-Design Ideas....A
combinatorial function with a propagation delay greater than the system clock period
does not necessarily prevent a design from operating at frequency. By taking advantage
of arrival times or carefully using wait states, a design can give the combinatorial
circuit sufficient time....File has several circuits, scroll to this one.... [Design

Bang Bang Thermostat is Simple & Efficient - 11/06/97 EDN-Design
Ideas....Perhaps simplest and oldest feedback loop is nonproportional,
all-or-nothing, "bang-bang" rmostat. Fully turning on a heater when temperature
is below setpoint and off when it's above setpoint is a straightforward example of a
servomechanism. Yet, elementary and crude as servomechanisms are, examples
surround.... [Design Idea by W Stephen Woodward, University of North Carolina--Chapel

Circuit compensates optocoupler temperature coefficient - 22-Nov-01 Issue of
EDN When using an optocoupler in a linear application, you should consider its
gain drift with temperature. Traditional single- and dual-transistor-output devices
have a notable gain drift with temperature. In recent years, some
temperature-compensated optocouplers have appeared. However, another option is to use
two optocouplers or a dual optocoupler with appropriate feedback to make the dri....

Circuit generates fan-speed control - 21-Mar-02 Issue of EDN Fan noise
is becoming a significant issue as electronic equipment increasingly enters the office
and the home. Noise is proportional to fan speed, and the airflow¡ªhence, fan
speed¡ªnecessary for cooling is less at low ambient temperatures. Because ambient
temperature is lower than the upper design point most of the time, a fan can run
slower, making it easier on the ears.... [Design Idea by Jim Christensen, Maxim
Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, CA] |

Circuit improves on temperature measurement - 2-May-02 Issue of EDN When
current pulses with a stable IHIGH/ILOW ratio modulate a semiconductor junction, the
ensuing voltage difference (for example, ΔVBE for a bipolar transistor] is a linear
function of the absolute (Kelvin] temperature, T. You can use this truism to make
accurate temperature measurements. Technical literature has thoroughly covered the
relationship (references 1 to 4] and has numerou.... [Design Idea by Alexander Bell,

Cold Activated Switch - The thermistor used has a resistance of 15k at 25
degrees and 45k at 0 degrees celsius. A suitable bead type thermistor is found in the
Maplin catalogue. The 100k pot allows this circuit to trigger over a wide range of
temperatures. A slight amount of hysteresis is provided by inclusion of the 270k
resistor. This prevents relay chatter when temperature is near the switching
threshold of this circuit. (added 2/06) [Andy Collison's circuit] |

Constant Temperature Circuit - This circuit is a generic low power

Digital Thermostat with LED Temperature Display - I needed to replace two
old, unreliable thermostats for controlling the heating and cooling for a large garden
shed. Commercial basic digital thermostats are available quite cheaply, but some lack
the ability to control heavy loads or have the extra features that I require for
saving energy when the door is often left open or to indicate temperature being out of
range etc. I like the PIC18F1320 microcontroller used in my previous project, so
decided to use it again in a very similar design to drive three multiplexed LED
displays and read the temperature from a Dallas/Maxim DS18x20 "1-Wire" digital sensor.

in series with a 5K potentiometer which produces about.... [Bill Bowden] |

Eliminate thermoelectric EMF in low-ohm measurements - 13-Jun-02 Issue of
EDN When two different-metal conductors connect together in a loop and one of
the junctions is at a higher temperature than the other, an electrical current flows
through the loop. The magnitude of this current depends on the type of metals involved
and the temperature differential of the junctions. When you open such a loop, a
thermoelectric voltage appears across the open ends.... [Design Idea by John Wynne,

Fan Controller Adapts to System Temperature - 09/25/97 EDN-Design
Ideas....Any piece of electronic equipment--whether it be a lab instrument, an audio
amplifier, or a PC--that relies on a cooling fan to control internal temperature is a
potential source of noise pollution or even hearing damage. Most of the time, the
fan's noise level is probably much higher than necessary, because it has enough
capacity to move.... [Design Idea by Kerry Lacanette, National Semiconductor, Tucson,

Fan Dual-Controller - Each fan turns off when the temperature drops 5
degrees below its turn-on temperature. For example, if the dial is set to 80 degrees,
the fan turns on at 80 degrees and turns off at 75 degrees. This prevents the
fan from cycling on and off rapidly, which would occur if the fan turned on at 80,
started to cool the cabinet, and then immediately turned off at 79. ….(design added
