Sleep Switch Cum Wake up Timer -  . . . 

 

Sleep Timer -  . . . 

 

Slot car video cronograph -  Another variation around the theme of video generators based on the Atmel AT90S1200. This triple TV-chronograph is triggered by photocells: gives you a "ready - set -go" sequence through red and green semaphore lights (with impartial random timing) , reveals jump starts, takes times with one hundreth of a second precision, and finally -surprise surprise- send those times to a computer (not required) via a serial link, just in case you want to write a tournament/timing program. . . .  [Alberto Ricci Bitti]

 

SLow diodes or handy timing devices? -  09/16/04  EDN Design Idea   Most designers consider slowness in diodes to be an imperfection or a limitation. Why not take apositive view of the situation? After all, a zener or an avalanche diode is nothan a diode with a limited breakdown voltage, and you ca. . .  [by Louis Vlemincq, Belgacom, Evere, Belgium]

Smart Cooling Fan Circuit -  A continuously running cooling fan is a big nuisance and is not very crucial in most instruments. The 12V smart fan control presented here allows the fan to run at rates varying from once a second to once in ten seconds approximately. In case of a battery powered instrument, this idea will save some power too! Basically, the. . .  [Circuit Posted by T.K. Hareendran]

Smart Photoresistor Timer Needs FeW Components -  09/03/09  EDN Design Idea    mart photoresistor senses darkness and then turns off. . .  [by Abel Raynus, Armatron International Inc, Malden, MA]

 

Solar Power System Guard -  The common home solar power system, in principle consists of a roof-mounted solar panel, a charge controller and a storage battery bank plus direct or electronic inverter powered electric lighting units. In some situations, the solar panel is mounted on a mast extended from ground and this may become an obstacle during night. . .  [Circuit Posted by T.K. Hareendran]

 

Solution for PC100 CompliAnt Modules -  Application Brief # 017. . .  [Pericom Semiconductor]

 

Solutions to Current High-Speed Board Design -  Application Note # 022. . .  [Pericom Semiconductor]

 

Special Function Timer Circuits LM555 -  The following are LM555 timer circuits that have unusual functions. Circuit for model railroad trains. . . .  [from Rob Paisley's Model Train web site]

 

Speed Acces to µP's Real-Time Clock -  06/05/98 EDN Design Idea   (Scroll to find this circuit) The DS5000T (Dallas Semiconductors, www. dalsemi. com) is an 8051-compatible processor that integrates nonvolatile memory and a real-time clock. This module has an impressive set of functional extensio. . .  [by Jerzy hrzaszcz, Warsaw University of Technology, Warsaw, Poland]

 

Speed test times by utilizing the built-in features of your frequency counter -  Application Note. . .  [Aglient]

 

Square Wave Oscillator -  It has adjustable (and settable) frequencies from 1Hz to 100kHz and is an ideal piece of Test Equipment. . . .  [No designer name given]

 

Square wave oscillator with fixed frequency steps using 555 timer chip -  . . .  [Collin Mitchell's web site]

 

Square Wave to Sine Converter -  . . . 

 

Stable 40kHz Clock (Rodney Radford) -  ASCII format-A circuit that I have used before is based on the CD4060 (14stage binary counter) and a 640Khz ceramic resonator. The CD4060 is basically an oscillator and a ripple counter to divide the 640khz down to something more usable. . . . 

 

Stable Multivibrator Transistor -  I will introduce the a-stable multivibrator circuit which used two transistors. The a-stable multivibrator is the circuit which repeats the high level (H) condition and the low level (L) condition alternately. ‚hIn case of the transistor type, the voltage (Vcc) of the power supply. . .  [Seiichi Inoue's Web Site]

 

Stall-Motor-Switch Machine Drivers (LM556) -  The circuits on this page are Switch Machine drivers that can be used to operate slow motion Stall-Motor type switch machine motors. The circuits use LM556 dual timer chips to provide a PUSH-PULL output to reverse the polarity of the voltage to the switch machine motors. The output of the drivers is equivalent to a DPDT toggle switch. . .  [from Rob Paisley's Model Train web site]
