Digital Thermometer Sends Data over AC Power Line -  This circuit is intended for precision centigrade temperature measurement, with a transmitter section converting to frequency the sensor's output voltage, which is proportional to the measured temperature.  The output frequency bursts are conveyed into the mains supply cables.  The receiver section counts the bursts coming from mains supply and shows the counting on three 7-segment LED displays.  The least significant digit displays tenths of degree and then a 00.0 to 99.9 °C range is obtained.  Transmitter-receiver distance can reach hundred meters, provided both units are connected to the mains supply within the control of the same light-meter.   __ Contact: Flavio Dellepiane, fladello @ tin.it

Digital Thermostat with LED Temperature Display -  I needed to replace two old, unreliable thermostats for controlling the heating and cooling for a large garden shed.  Commercial basic digital thermostats are available quite cheaply, but some lack the ability to control heavy loads or have the extra features that I require for saving energy when the door is often left open or to indicate temperature being out of range etc.  I like the PIC18F1320 microcontroller used in my previous project, so decided to use it again in a very similar design to drive three multiplexed LED displays and read the temperature from a Dallas/DS18x20 "1-Wire" digital sensor.   __ Designed by D.

Digital timer has independent on/off period -  03/28/96 EDN-Design Ideas You can easily implement a long-interval digital timer using the popular 4060 oscillator-divider IC.  However, in repetitive-timer applications, this IC produces equal on and off times.  The circuit in Figure 1 allows you to set different on and off times; the state of the timer’s Q14 output automatically selects one of two independent RC time constants Design by Sanjay R Chendvankar, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Bombay, India

Digital Timer with 7-Segment Display & Pushbuttons -  The original version of xTimer used MAX7219 for driving 7-segment.  This new design uses a cheap CMOS shift register, 4094 for LED interface.  Each 4094 drives a 0.5" 7-segment without the need of limiting resistor.  The left-hand LED is timer function with buzzer alarm output.  The right-hand is for clock display.   __ Designed by Wichit Sirichote

Digital to Analogue Converters for PC Parallel Port -  JDAC and CENT_DAC are both simple Digital to Analogue converter to use with your IBM PC/AT or compatible.  Those circuit are connected to Centronics parallel port and does not affect the normal port usage in any way.  The circuits are transparent to computer, so it is not possible to program to see if those devices are connected or not. __ Designed by Tomi Engdahl

Digital Voltmeter -  The ICL7107 is a 3 1/2 digit LED A/D convertor.  It contains an internal voltage reference, high isolation analog switches, sequential control logic, and the display drivers.  The auto-zero adjust ensures zero reading for 0 volts input.   __ Contact: IQ Technologies

Digital voltmeter (DVM) -  This multimeter was designed to measure output voltage and current in a PSU, where the current sense shunt resistor is connected in series with load at the negative voltage rail.  It needs only one supply voltage that can be acquired from main PSU.  An additional function of the multimeter is that it can control  (switch on and off) an electric fan used to cool the main heatsink.  The power threshold at which the fan switches on can be adjusted using One Touch Button Setup.
