Four Channel Oscilloscope Adapter -   will introduce the adapter to see the wavefrom of four kinds of the signals at the same time with the oscilloscope on these pages. At the classy oscilloscope, it is equipped with the function to see more than one signal at the same time. The one which I am having can see only the one signal. Therefore, I made the adapter to see four kinds of the signals at the same time....(circuit / schematic design added 07/08/09)
Fox-Hound Wire tracer -  The "Fox" and "Hound," made by Triplett Corporation (www.triplett.com), are a transmitter and receiver for tracing telephone(and others) wires through walls. You connect the transmitter to the wire, and the receiver helps you trace the wire from several inches distance away. Triplett doesn't say much about how they work, but th Fox and Hound apparently use inductive coupling of a low-frequency signal, maybe around 50 to 100KHz.…. [Tony van Roon's circuit]

Frequency comparator has status output -  26-Dec-02 Issue of EDN  The original application for the circuit in Figure 1 was to check the number of revolutions of an engine with only one LED as an indicator. The measurement of the number of revolutions usually involves sensors with a frequency output proportional to the number of revolutions. The circuit compares the frequency output of such a sensor with a lower and upper limit and gives a visual result, usi.... [Design Idea by Susanne Nell, Breitenfurt, Austria]

Frequency source feeds entire lab -  23-Jan-03 Issue of EDN  Plumbing a laboratory with a standard frequency makes a lot of sense if the lab uses multiple frequency counters, spectrum analyzers, and other frequency-dependent test equipment. Rather than spending time keeping all of the instruments' oscillators in calibration or buying expensive, high-precision oscillators, you can use the circuit in Figure 1 to distribute a single calibrated frequency sou....

Frequency Window Comparator has hysteresis -  11/07/96 EDN-Design Ideas....The frequency comparator in Figure 1 uses two VCOs. C1, R1+R2, and the voltage at pin 9 determine the frequency of IC1 (900 Hz]. C3, R5+R6, and the voltage at pin 9 determine the frequency of IC2 (1580 Hz]. If fIN is lower than 900 Hz, then the output P2 of phase-comparator 2 in IC1 is high and drives.... [Design Idea by W Dijkstra, Consultant, Waalre, The Netherlands]

Game Show Indicator Lights (Who's First) -  This circuit turns on a light corresponding to the first of several buttons pressed in a "Who's First" game. Three stages are shown but the circuit can be extended to include any number of buttons and lamps. Three SCRs (silicon controlled rectifiers) are connected with a common cathode resistor (50 ohm) so that when any SCR conducts, the voltage on the cathodes will rise about 7 volts above the voltage at the junction of the 51K and 1K ohm resistors and prevent triggering of a second SCR. When all lamps are off, and a button is pressed, the corresponding SCR is triggered due to....
