Accelerometer Amplifier

circuit schematic

Precision accelerometers needs inverting mode amplifier since they are usually charge-output  devices. This amplifier convert charges into voltage output. The circuit below is an example of accelerometer with DC servo. The charge from the transducer is converted to a voltage by C1, which should equal the transducer capacitance plus the input capacitance of [...]

Electrostatic Charge Detector (Electroscope)

circuit schematic

Electroscope is a device that is used to detect electrostatic charges. Operation: To reduce AC noise this circuit uses C1, but it will lower the sensitivity a bit. As a voltage divider we use the MPF102 and R1. The divider’s output will be about 4.5V diving a half-scale reading on M1, a 200-uA [...]

Battery Powered Electret Microphone Pre-Amplifier

circuit schematic

Here is a schematic diagram of electret microphone pre-amplifier using LMV721 op-amp. because the LMV721 has low noise and low power features, it would be an ideal choice for  battery powered microphone preamplifier. The LMV721 is connected as an inverting amplifier. Resistors, R1 =R2 = 4.7k, sets the reference at mid point between [...]

Stand Alone 600mA Li-ion Battery Charger

circuit schematic

A constant-current/constant-voltage linear charger for single-cell lithium-ion (li-ion) can be constructed using only a tiny battery charger controller chip EUP8054 and a few passive components. This tiny integrated circuit chip is suitable for various portable devices. This controller chip is also compatible with USB power specification, ideal for charging the battery when the device is [...]

Simple Automatic Nicad (NiCd) Battery Charger

circuit schematic

Many cheap battery chargers usually assume that charging the battery slowly is OK although the battery is already full of charges. All they do is usually charging the battery with constant current no matter if the battery is almost completely discharged or has been fully charged. Off course the battery wouldn’t be damaged immediately [...]

Sealed Lead Acid Battery Charger: Dual Step Current Charger Mode

circuit schematic

All of the necessary circuitry to optimally control the charge and hold cycle for sealed lead acid battery can be implemented using  UC2906 series of battery charger controllers.  These integrated circuits monitor and control both the output voltage and current of the charger through three separate charge states; a high current bulk-charge state, a controlled [...]
