Technique Increases Low Cost DAC's Resolution: 04/09/98 EDN-Design Ideas
/ (added 3/03) In telemetry or security applications in which a modem connection automatically establishes itself between two systems, a
failure in one of the systems can interrupt the data exchange while the connection remains established until someone physically breaks the
line or restarts the failed system. This situation can also happen if your PC crashes during a long-lasting Internet download. To prevent this
problem, the circuit in Figure 1 continuously supervises the RS-232C data lines (TxD and RxD) and automatically hangs up the connection when
the circuit detects a long period without transmitted or received data.... |

Twin DAC's Produce True Bipolar Operation: 08/18/94
EDN-Design Ideas / (added 3/03) The 8-bit multiplying DAC-08 is a versatile device that offers excellent performance at low cost. This DAC
produces an output current that is the product of an 8-bit digital number and the input reference current. Either a unipolar voltage source
for normal D/A conversion or a bipolar signal voltage for multiplying D/A .... |

Use a DAC to Vary LVDT Excitation: 10/02/03 EDN Design
Ideas / (added 02/05) LVDTs (linear variable differential transformers) are electromechanical measuring devices that convert
the position of a magnetic core into electrical signals. You generate these signals via excitation on the primary side. The results on the
secondary side—typically, two secondary windings—depend on the position of the core (Figure 1).... |

Zero Power A/D Converter uses Printer Port: 07/06/95 EDN-Design Ideas /
(added 11/05) You can use a desktop or laptop PC to monitor physical variables such as temperature or pressure. A convenient way to do this is
to connect an A/D converter through the ubiquitous Centronics printer port (Fig 1). The current requirement of the ADC0804LCN used here is
less than 1.5 mA at 5V supply voltage with a 640-kHz clock. Tristate-buffer 74HC244 multiplexes 8 bits of A/D-converter data through 4 bits
(54 through 57) of the status port of the printer adapter.... |
