AN6884 is a logarithmic scale LED bar display driver. AN6884 accept wide range of supply voltage, ranging from 3.5V to 16V. This VU (voltage unit) bar display circuit provides only 5 levels,  but will accept wide range of input level because the scale is logarithmic: -10, -5, 0, 3, and 6dB points. The output current [...]

Using this circuit, you can measure the actual output power of your amplifier.  You can put this circuit in a box as a measurement instrument, or you can integrate it inside your power amplifier to get real power display. The circuit’s schematic diagram is shown in the figure below.

This  circuit would be a handy instrument [...]

This LED (Light Emitiing Diode) display consist of 10 LEDs to indicate the level of an input signal. If the signal is small, only LED#1 will light, and if the signal level getting higher then you’ll se the light dot will move through LED #2, #3, #4, … and so on. When the signal input [...]
