This application note discusses how to best bias the AC signal to within the DC supply range and how to use digital potentiometers in circuits designed for mechanical potentiometers. This understanding is crucial to effectively using the DS1802 in a pushbutton-controlled audio preamplifier circuit.
This application note describes the use of a current-sense amplifier along with an optocoupler to extend the operating voltage range up to 1,000 volts for high-voltage applications. The circuit relies on the optocoupler's isolation barrier to separate the high-side and grounded side of the 1,000V system. Op amps are used to eliminate photodiode non-linearity and drift and provide an accurate output voltage proportional to the load on the 1kV supply.
This document describes a microcontroller-based 1-Wire® master interface for reliable operation of small, medium, and large 1-Wire networks. This is accomplished using careful impedance matching, intelligent (software-controlled) active pullup, and slew-rate control. Software flow charts are included to assist the user in generating the correct 1-Wire timing for reset pulse, presence detect, write one, write zero, and read time slots using any suitable microcontroller. Scope traces illustrate the timing performance of the driver as well as transmission line effects as they appear with long cables.
In order to preserve the quality of HDTV and progressive DVD video, a bank of three (RGB/YPbPr), 5-pole reconstruction filters are used to set the 30MHz bandwidth and to provide the >40dB selectivity required by EIA770-3.
Many modern systems have the majority of their electronics powered by 3.3V or lower, but must drive external loads with ±10V, a range that is still very common in industrial applications. There are digital to analog converters (DACs) available that can drive loads with ±10V swings, but there are reasons to use a 3.3V DAC and amplify the output voltage up to ±10V.
A flexible circuit is shown that limits current or removes power in response to a command from the user or other fault-indicating signal. It accommodates manual-reset (MR), over-temperature, and protection in hot-swap applications. Residing on either the backplane/host side or the removable-card/remote-device side of the backplane connectors, it guards against start-up faults when a card or board is inserted into a rack or host with the main power supply turned on.
Originally, video filters were passive LC circuits surrounded by amplifiers. Smaller, more efficient designs can currently be achieved by combining the amplifier with an RC filter. Sensitivity analysis and predistortion methods developed in the 1960s have, moreover, overcome the poor performance that gave early video filters a bad reputation.
In most video applications, the video signal generated from the DAC requires a reconstruction filter to smooth out the signal and attenuate the sampling aliases. The MAX4090 is a direct, DC-coupled output driver, which can be used after the reconstruction filter to drive the video signal. The driving load from the video DAC can be varied from 75Ω to 300Ω. A low input impedance (< 100Ω) is required by the MAX4090 in normal operation, special care must be taken when a reconstruction filter is used in front of the MAX4090.
