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 [...]

This dynamic compressor will give about 20dB compression, at very wide input signal range 100 mV to 10 V. Another advantage of this circuit is that this circuit doesn’t need any power supply, we call it self powered, or more accurately, signal-powered compressor. Here is the schematic diagram of the circuit: A part [...]

Notch filter is known as band-cut filter or band-reject filter. The fuction of this filter is to remove some frequency portion of a signal. The schematic diagram of this filter circuit, a second order notch filter is depicted in the figure below. The formula is actually complicated, but by taking the R3=R4 and [...]

ROHM (www.rohm.com) is originally a resistor producer company, but finally expand their business and produce monolithic IC, and this one used in our circuit is the example. The internal structure of this FM transmitter integrated circuit consist of stereo modulator that creates a stereo composite signal, an FM modulator that modulate a carrier frequency with [...]

Designing passive crossover network for your speaker system is easy, just like what shown in our previous crossover design article, but now we can design many types of crossover even easier using online crossover design tool. The crossover schematic diagram here is an example with a case of 10 kHz high corner frequency, 1250 Hz [...]
