Square Oscillator Using Comparator: The Circuit Schematic Diagram and The Formula

circuit schematic

Using a single supply quad comparator LM339, LM239, LM2901, LM2901V, NCV2901, or MC3302, we can build a square-wave oscillator with simple circuit and formula. Here is the schematic diagram: This circuit is suitable if you need  many square-wave oscillators in one circuit, since the quad packaged comparator provide four comparators in one single  [...]

Wien Bridge Oscillator: The Circuit Schematic Diagram and The Design Formula

circuit schematic

The excellent high input impedance, high slew rate, and high voltage qualities of CA3140 op-amp make it suitable for Wien-bridge sine wave oscillator. The basic circuit for Wien-bridge sine wave oscillator is shown in the figure below (the upper part). You can see the formula in the figure, when R1=R2=R, and C1=C2=C, then the formula [...]

Baxandall Tone Control Using LM833: The Circuit’s Schematic Diagram and The Formula

circuit schematic

This circuit is similar to our previous tone control circuit, a bass-treble tone control circuit, but here we present the formula for design your tone control’s custom frequency response. Here is the schematic diagram and formula of the tone control circuit: Almost all op-amp type can be used, as long as they have [...]

First Order Low-Pass Active Filter: The Circuit Schematic Diagram and The Design Formula

circuit schematic

The simple low-pass filter is shown in Figure below. The filter has a 20dB/decade roll-off after its corner frequency fc. Its low-pass frequency gain (f->0) is defined by R3/R1. This allows low-frequency gains other than unity to be obtained.  R2 should be chosen equal to the parallel combination of R1 and R3 to minimize error [...]

Transformerless Voltage Booster Circuit: A DC-DC Step-Up Switching Regulator Using Transistors

circuit schematic

A DC-to-DC step-up converter is traditionally implemented using transformer, working by converting the DC voltage to AC Voltage, step-up it using transformer, then rectify and filter the transformer’s output to  get a higher DC voltage. Using a switching method, we can step-up a voltage without a transformer. We just need an inductor which is driven [...]

Transformerless, Switch Mode Boost Regulator, A Step-Up Converter

circuit schematic

Using this switch mode regulator circuit, you can get a stable 12 volt output (500mA) although you just have 4,3 – 10V power supply. You can even boost a 3.5V input to 12V if the load draws only 100 mA or less. This switch mode voltage regulator use LTC1266 IC chip from Linear Technology. Here [...]
