TDA 1072AT is a special purpose integrated circuit for AM radio receiver from Philips Semiconductors. The integrated circuit is designed for mains-fed home receivers and car radios. The voltage-controlled oscillator provides signals with extremely low distortion and high spectral purity over the whole frequency range even when tuning with variable capacitance diodes. RF radiation and [...]

This antenna booster circuit can be used to amplify the weak signal received by the antenna. Antenna for AM/FM is usually not tuned for the optimal dimension of 1/4 wavelength, since we prefer small portable size. This untuned antenna has very low gain, so the antenna booster circuit here is very helpful in getting better [...]

For you who has failed to build radio transmitters, this circuit worth a try. This circuit uses 74HC14 hex Schmidt trigger as the oscillator, and you can choose to use capacitor for low cost goal or quartz crystal for better stability. For quartz crystal, you can choose any frequency between 00.7-1.6MHz, but around 1.6MHz is [...]

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 [...]

LM386 is one of my favorite small audio amplifier integrated circuit chip. The LM386 is a power amplifier designed for use in low voltage consumer applications. The inputs are ground referenced while the output automatically biases to one-half the supply voltage. The gain is internally set to 20 to keep external part count low, [...]
