Circuits Designed by Dave Johnson, P.E. : |
- 1 AMP
CURRENT INJECTOR
When you need to measure resistance down to a few micro ohms, this circuit works
great. It is powered from two "C" cell batteries and is designed to inject a
well-regulated one amp of current into the unknown resistance. By measuring the
voltage drop across the resistor with a digital voltmeter, the resistance value can
be accurately measured. The circuit also is equipped with a low battery monitor.

- 120vac
Under Voltage Tester
Using a cheap 24vac transformer, this circuit can test a product under low 95vac
conditions. With the components show, it has a rating of 250 watts max.
|
- 20MHz
VCSEL 3mW LASER TEST CIRCUIT
This circuit takes advantage of some new vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSEL)
that don’t require light output control circuits. The circuit shows how to drive the
device from a single high speed CMOS IC. The circuit can easily be modified to
transmit signals from kilohertz to about 50MHz.
|
- 40KHZ
LED TEST SIGNAL GENERATOR
This 40KHz crystal controlled oscillator circuit drives an infrared LED with
powerful 40ma pulses. The circuit can be used to test optical communications
circuits, designed to receive 40KHz modulated light signals.
