Micro-Laser range finder - Laser range finders are a vital component of high precision targeting engagements. The precise and accurate range-to-target information is an essential variable in the fire control solution of today’s sophisticated weapons. This range information is readily provided by the laser range finder, however, current fielded laser range finders are bulky, heavy, difficult to mount onto weapons, eye hazards and very expensive. The US Army CECOM RDEC NVESD is addressing these laser range finder issues in the development of a Micro-Laser Range Finder (mLRF). The mLRF is being developed for the soldier, with his special needs a top

MIDITester - Sometimes when experimenting with different soundcards and MiDI interfaces it is useful to see if there is some data going in MiDI interface. This can be easily tested with this adapter, which converts the midI signals to visible light pulses. Just the circuit and plug it to the MiDI output of your computer. When computer sends any midI data out, you see the LED flashing. I found this tester very useful in testing homebuilt soundcard MiDI interface. __ Designed by Tomi Engdahl

Mini 3 digit display, an inexpensive digital voltmeter - We build a simple and inexpensive three digit display. it's a voltmeter module but it has also general purpose digital iO pins. You could use it as well to read a digital sensor and display the value. it can be freely programmed, calibrated and even be programmed with a non linear formula. it's a display where you can define the relation between the measured value and the displayed number. __ Designed by Guido Socher
Miniature Pushbutton On/Off Switch - in many battery powered devices, you would like to turn the circuit on and off by pressing a small pushbutton switch. One press turns the device on and second press turns it back off. The flip/flop circuit below uses a minimum number of parts to perform . . . Hobby Circuit designed by David Johnson P.E.-October, 2005
Miniature SWR / RF power meter - After building my Z-match tuner, I wanted to design a circuit board for a Stockton type swr/pwr meter that I could reproduce easily and see how small I could make it. The result is in the above picture. it is a board that measures a scant 1" x 1.5" and is made from common single sided copper clad board. I drew the lines on the board with a pencil, and then used a Dremel tool and an abrasive wheel to cut the traces in the copper that isolates the individual pads that the components solder to. The circuit is a variant of the Stockton type of bridge used in many commercial swr/pwr meters and kits these days. __ Designed by KC8AON's QRP PROJECTS

Model fixed-point DSP arithmetic in C - 03/18/99 EDN Design Ideas: NOTE: Page includes several designs. Scroll to find this one. You can run initial high-level simulations of custom numerical algorithms, such as digital filters, using floating-point numbers in an environment such as C or Matlab. Unfortunately, you won't see include fixed-point effects, such as truncation due to limited precision and register overflow, until you use a Hardware Design Language (HDL) , such as Verilog or VHDL. However, a technique that models these effects in C—the function "bit_limit" in Listing 1—provide as faster execution and better portability than HDLs and allows early exploration of the trade-off between bus width and performance.

Modify a CDV-715 Survey Meter for High Sensitivity - This project endeavors to modify an ion chamber style radiation meter, the CDV-715, so that it has useful sensitivity, taking advantage of the internal ion chamber, high value resistor, and nice packaging. The new circuit increases the electrical gain by 1000, converting the scales from R to milli-R. I decided to abandon virtually all of the existing electronics for several reasons. The chamber current is converted into a voltage by switched resistors but the ceramic switch will simply leak too much; it can only be used for range switching after amplification. There is no need for 1.5 volts since there will be no filament to heat so the inverter that converts 1.5 volts to 50 volts and 10 volts will be unnecessary. A 9 volt battery will power the electronics and a unique version of the Cockcroft-Walton voltage multiplier will generate the 50 volts for ion chamber bias. __ Contact: Charles Wenzel of Wenzel Associates, Inc.
