Check Consistency of Binary Addresses - 09/28/95 EDN Design Ideas: The validation circuit in Fig 1 allows you to check the consistency of successively recurring 3-bit address codes. The circuit simultaneously applies the address code to the A port of IC 2, a 7485 magnitude comparator, and to IC 3, a 1-of-8 decoder. When IC 2's B port reads the same address latched on the output of D flip-flop, Design by Arthur Edang, Don Bosco Technical College, Mandaluyong, Philippines
Check Swamp-Cooler Water Level - 10/31/02 EDN Design Ideas: A "swamp cooler" is an easy way to obtain effective air conditioning, especially in hot and dry climates, if a water source is readily available. Although most units are very reliable, the storage-reservoir control usually uses a single level-detector component. Failure of this component can lead to serious water damage Design by Daniel Krones, Precision Design Services, Sky Forest, CA

Doggie Water Dispenser Alarm - I have two Beagle dogs. They drink a lot of water; they go through about 3 gallons a week. They have two water dispensers. One is on the inside and second unit on the outside of my house. Often, I forget to fill one of their two jugs and discover them completely empty. I do worry that my dogs might get dehydrated if I ever forget to fill both of their containers. . . Circuit by David A. Johnson P.E.-June, 2012
