Funk (Twang) Guitar Effect Box

This is an audio effect circuit that give extra oscillation to your guitar, percussive, or semi percussive instruments, you can call it a funk box. This  guitar effect circuit is basically a damped oscillator that is set slightly below its critical oscillation point.  The oscillator part is constructed by feeding back the output signal through a bandpass circuit, with the […]

Audio Power Amplifier for AM Radio

This is an AM radio power amplifier circuit. What is different with other general amplifier is that this circuit has a low-pass filter (passive type), built using R1C1 to limit the input-output frequency response. Additionally, a ferroxcube K5-001-001/3B with 3 turns of wire is used as ferrite bead  at output filter. All components should be spaced very close to  the […]

AGC (Compressor) Speech Processor

This is a speech processor circuit that can be used in communication radio circuit. This circuit consist of two sections, they are amplification and compression or dipping. The combination of these processing will improve the  SSB communication intelligibility and provide higher average level while avoiding clipping. The 100K pot is used to adjust the compression degree, as well as adjusting […]

Single Cell Battery 1.5V 20dB Inverting Amplifier

Featuring very low power consumption, 675 nA is the total current  consumption for this amplifier  circuit. The output voltage swing is 300 mVpp with a 20 kΩ load. This very low power design is made possible by high gain low power operational amplifier CA3078. CA3037 is marked as obsolete product by Intersil, but they suggest ICL7611,ICL7612, CA5420A, CA3140, or CA3160 for […]

Phase-Shift Meter for Audio Frequency Signal

Simple phase shift measurement can be done by squaring both the measured and the reference, then compute the difference of the two signals. The accuracy of the circuit shown in the schematic diagram  below is 1% UP to 2000 cps. This circuit is used in computers and for high speed analog instrumentation. Negative value for zero phase shift is indicated […]
