Difference Of Squares Analog Computing

Because the differential input capability of the AD532, algebraic solution of several interesting functions such as difference of squares, (X2-Y2)/10V is allowed. The following figure shows us about the configuration of AD532 in the square mode, with a simple unity gain inverter connected between one of the signal inputs (Y) and one of the inverting …[Read More]
Frequency Counter/Tachometer with High Precision

For convenient reading, the display of this tachometer circuit show inthe reading in hertz directly. The conversion time will be equal to the gating time, which is 0.1 second with pin 11 of the ICM7027A connected to Vdd, make the display show tens of hertz at the least significant digit. An ICM7207 can be used …[Read More]

Common mode rejection ratio (CMMR) is one parameter that specify the instrumentation performance. LM4250 is high performance op-amp which is characterized by very low power consumption. With special arrangement as shown in the following schematic diagram, the instrumentation amplifier circuit will be featured with calibration to maximize the CMMR performance.
Square Root Mode for AD532 Analog Processor

The following schematic diagram shows us about the connections for square root mode for ADS532 analog processor chip. Similar to the division mode, the multiplier cell is connected in the feedback of the op amp by connecting the output back to both the X and Y inputs. To prevent latch up as Zi approaches 0 …[Read More]
Phase-Sensitive Sinusoidal Signals Detector

Using the phase sensitive detector circuit below the magnitude of sinusoidal signal can be measured. Beside that, this circuit also can be used to measures 180°-out-of-phase inputs with proper polarity. But, it depends on the relationship to the reference with less than 1% error. This circuit uses a AD741J op amp. Here is the schematic …[Read More]
AD532 Multiplier IC and Its Pin Configurations

The AD532 is the first pre-trimmed single chip monolithic multiplier/divider. This device guarantees a maximum multiplying error of +- 1% and a +-10 V output voltage without the need for any output op amp or external trimming resistors. It’s simplicity of use provides design engineers with an attractive alternative to modular multipliers because the AD532 …[Read More]
One Direction Motion Sensor

This is a one direction motion sensor circuit. This motion sensor circuit is used to detects an object passing in one direction, ignoring an object that going to opposite way. This circuit uses two sensors to identify the movement only in one direction. The basic principle of this circuit is simple, where one sensor is …[Read More]
