A primer on binary-arithmetic rounding - 01/21/99 EDN-Design Ideas - (Scroll to find this one) As digital communications and data compression/decompression proliferate, signal-processing functions grow in importance. Whether you’re dealing with hard-wired logic or programmable engines, an understanding of binary-arithmetic rounding is important in getting correct and consistent results. Before we discuss rounding, consider a binary number (Figure 1) Page includes

Bat Detector The Simple Bat Detector is a frequency division type device. Frequency division type detectors allow you to hear ultrasonic sound by digitally scaling the frequency down into the human hearing range. For instance, a western pipistrelle bat emits ultrasonic sound in the range __ Designed by Tony Messina-Las Vegas, NV
Build a Large Ultrasonic Cleaner Most readers would know that you can obtain small ultrasonic cleaners for jewellery and similar small items. So why not a much larger version? It would be great for cleaning automotive and other mechanical parts, fabrics which cannot be machine washed, ornate bric-a-brac and a host of other hard-to-clean items. __ SiliconChip

Cheap Ultrasonic Range Finder based on PIC16F877A with a 8MHz crystal - Everybody knows the speed of the sound in the dry air is around 340 m/s. Send a short ultrasonic pulse at 40 Khz in the air, and try to listen to the echo. Of course you won't hear anything, but with an ultrasonic sensor the back pulse can be detected. If you know the time of the forth & back travel of the ultrasonic wave, you know the distance, divide the distance by two and you know the range from the ultrasonic sensor to the first obstacle in front of it. __ Designed by Bruno Gavand

Dog Whistle - It's well known that many animals are particularly sensitive to high-frequency sounds that humans can't hear. Many commercial pest repellers based on this principle are available, most of them operating in the range of 30 to 50 kHz. __ Designed by Tomaz Lazar-Ljubljana, Slovenia
Fast Integer Multipliers Fit In FPGA - 05/12/94 EDN-Design Ideas You can fit a fast and compact digital multiplier into a field-programmable gate array(FPGA]. The technique involves using small look-up tables to find partial products and then adding the partial products. The key factor for making the design compact, fast, and easy to implement is to make the look-up tables for the partial products as small as possible. This multiplier can quickly multiply a number by a constant; changing the constant momentarily takes the multiplier off-line __ Circuit Design by Kenneth David Chapman, Xilinx Ltd, byfleet, Surrey, UK

PIC16F873 Ultrasonic Range Meter - On these pages, I will introduce the Ultrasonic Range Meter with PIC16F873. As for the range meter which doesn't use PIC, refer to "Ultrasonic Range Meter". I created the PCB pattern for this circuit using EAGLE CAD. With this circuit, the following features of PIC16F873 are used. __ Designed by Seiichi Inoue
Receiver-Ultrasonic Switch - The circuit described generates (transmits) ultrasonic sound of frequency between 40 and 50 kHz. As with any other remote control system this cirucit comprises of a mini transmitter and a receiver circuit. Transmitter generates ultrasonic sound and the receiver senses ultrasonic sound from the transmitter and switches on a relay __ Designed by Andy Wilson
