DDS forms Inphase & Quadrature Generator - 12/04/97 EDN Design Ideas: Many instrumentation applications use two sine waves to carry out coherent modulation. The circuit in Figure 1 allows you to measure vector magnitudes (for example, voltage or impedance) by multiplying the measured signal with in phase and quadrature sinusoidal signals of the same frequency. in a classic approach, these signals come from one VCO and a pi/2 (90º) delay. However, when the measurements cover a wide frequency span, it is necessary to compensate phase differences between the measured and instrument circuits by using a programmable delay. Design by J Toda, R Bragos, and M Tresanchez, UPC, Barcelona, Spain Delay Unit for Surround Sound - The Mitsubishi M65830 Delay IC has been discontinued (for reasons beyond my comprehension) , and so far a suitable replacement device has not been found. This means (of course) that you will be unable to build this delay circuit. I have left the project in place as reference, and the overall connection schematic is still valid if (when?) a replacement for the M65830 is located. The project will be updated at that time. in the meantime, just ignore the delay circuit __ Designed by Rod Elliott ESP

Quadraphonic Amplifier - This is a four channel amplifier ideally suited for use with quadraphonic equipment such as a Sound Blaster Live card. There is no volume control, audio levels being directly controlled from the sound card itself. __ Designed by Andy Collison
Quadrature (sine/cosine) voltage controlled oscillator - Several schematics on this page, scroll to find this one. The first circuit is a dual ramp generator where the positive and negative ramps are generated separately. This circuit was used as a ramp generator for a transistor curve tracer: the positive going ramp was used for testing NPN transistors and the negative ramp for testing PNP transistors. __ Designed by Richard Torrens
Simple Circuit Surround Sound Decoder - This surround-sound decoder is based on the "Hafler" principle, first discovered by David Hafler sometime in the early 1970s. The original idea was to connect a pair of speakers as shown in Figure 1, for use as the rear speakers in the surround setup __ Designed by Rod Elliott ESP

Two Quadrant Analog Multiplier uses No Log Amps - 10/10/96 EDN Design Ideas: You usually obtain product of two values by summing outputs of logarithmic amplifiers. block diagram in Figure 1 shows a configuration that produces a two-quadrant product of analog signals but uses no log amplifiers. VA and VB are multiplier inputs. triangle generator produces a linear triangle whose voltage range is between0V and maximum value that VB can attain (VB>=0V]. VA may assume both positive and negative values. Figure 2 shows circuit waveforms Design by Giovanni Romeo, Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica, Rome, Italy
