Programmable Diode Biases Bridge-  03/17/94 EDN Design Ideas:  A programmable reference diode, such as the Motorola TL431A, can supply constant-current bias for a silicon pressure-sensor bridge (Fig 1].  This circuit is simpler than using an op amp and separate reference diode or than using a current diode, which requires temperature compensation. The TL431A produces a VREF of 2.5V over a current range of 1 to 100 mA.   Design by EDN-Access Design by Patrick J Worcester, KAKM TV, Anchorage, AK

Programmable Divider Restores SVGA Pixel Clock-  03/28/96 EDN Design Ideas:  If you've tried to design a video-overlay board that works with super-video-graphics-adapter (SVGA) graphics through a feature connector, you've probably noticed that the frequency of the supplied clock signal is not always equal to the pixel-clock frequency.  In high-color modes (32, 000, 64, 000, and 16 million colors) , the clock usually runs at 2 or 3x the pixel frequency.  You can restore the pixel clock by using a simple programmable divider, as opposed to the more complex PLL circuit used in many video-overlay boards.  Figure 1 shows the divider circuit Design by Piotr Mazur, Wikom, Warsaw, Poland

Programmable Filter Uses Parallel Processing-  05/23/96 EDN Design Ideas:  The circuit in Figure 1 uses an easy trick to produce a stable highpass filter.  The trick is to simply take a lowpass filter and subtract the filter output from input signal.  The mathematical basis for this method is K (s) =1-1/ (1+ts) =ts/ (1+ts) , where K (s) is the filter's overall transfer function, and 1/ (1+ts) and ts/ (1+ts) are the typical, respective transfer functions of the lowpass and highpass filters.
This approach has several advantages.  First, the lowpass filter itself has excellent stability and noise immunity. Design by Alex Belousov, Rego Park, NY
