53 dB Stereo Preamplifier for Tape or Phonographs


With the circuit shown in the following schematic diagram, both channels of this stereo preamp is constructed using  RCA CA3052 quad AC amplifier.  this pre-amplifier circuit is featured with tone control (bass – treble). Make a similar circuit to complete the other channel, since the circuit for left and right channel are similar. To be high-fidelity, total harmonic distortion should be kept minimum, this circuit gives less than 0.3% distortion level at  at 1-kHz testing signal with 1-V amplitude.  

Gain or amplification at 1 kHz is 47 dB,  and the tone control will curve the response with 11.5-dB boost at 100 Hz and 10 kHz at maximum bass and treble boost.  For minimum bass and treble knob position,  the attenuation will be 10dB  at 100 Hz  and 9dB at 10kHz. This circuit is operated by a single ended supply for wider range environment. Inputs can be from tape recorders pickup or magnetic-cartridge phonographs.

PID instruction in Allen Bradley PLC Closed Loop Control

PID instruction in Allen Bradley PLC [Proportional/Integral/Derivative] Closed Loop Control For   Processor SLC 5/02SLC 5/03SLC 5/04SLC 5/05    MicroLogix 1200 and MicroLogix 1500 (A special PID file replaces the old integer file control block.) Description of PID in PLC   This output instruction is used to control physical properties such as temperature, pressure, liquid level, or flow rate of process loops. The PID instruction normally controls a closed loop using inputs from an analog input module and providing an output to an analog output module as a response to effectively hold a process variable at a desired set point. The PID equation controls the process by sending an output signal to the actuator. The greater the error between the setpoint and the process variable input, the greater the output signal, and vice versa. An additional value (feed forward or bias) can be added to the control output as an offset. The result of the PID calculation (control vari...

NE566 Function Generator Circuit Diagram

The NE566 Function Generator is a Voltage-Controlled Oscillator of exceptional linearity with buf fered square wave and triangle wave outputs. The frequency of oscillation is determined by an external resistor and capacitor and the voltage applied to the control terminal. The Oscillator CAN be programmed over a ten-to-one frequency range by proper selection of an external resistance and modulated over a ten-to-one range by the control voltage, with exceptional linearity.  FMAX = 1 MHz     WIDE 1000:1 Continuous Sweep Possible  NE566 Function Generator Circuit Diagram Pdf Datasheet  Sourced by : Circuitsstream

Circuit Project Wireless Doorbell

The first thing you will notice is the clever circuitry. Some of the design goes against everything we have learnt in electronics. That’s why we have to study other people’s designs and realise “the more you know, the more you realise you don’t know.” The oscillator circuit is very interesting, but first we will look at the RF oscillator. The doorbell operates on the 303MHz band and the 30 metre range (100ft) is obtained without the use of an antenna! The circuit is actually radiating from the printed track of the tank circuit. The Tank Circuit is a single-turn coil and a small capacitor (5p & 4p in parallel). In this project we show how to add a small antenna to the circuit to get double the range – plus two other improvements to increase the range. Some of the improvements will load the circuit and alter the frequency at which it operates. Others can be done without any effect on the circuit. Fortunately, the transmitting stage is what we call “tight” and is not affected by surro...
