Decibel Meter - The circuit below responds to sound pressure levels from about 60 to 70 dB. The sound is picked up by an 8 ohm speaker, amplified by a transistor stage and one LM324 op-amp section. You can also use a dynamic microphone but I found the speaker was more sensitive. The remaining 3 sections of the LM324 quad op-amp are used as __ Designed by Bill Bowden
Digital volume control - The Tiny Audio Amplifier kit is a good choice for battery operation. it is based on LM386 IC .__
Digital Volume Control - The heart of this digital volume controller DVC circuit is IC 2 4067, 16-channel analog multiplexer. Because the 1kΩ has been connected between every input and output, the multiplexer can act like a potentiometer. The total resistance is 15kΩ. You can use different values for the resistor to obtain a different characteristic. __ Designed by Popescu Marian
Digital volume control - Circuit of a digital volume control using six discrete IC s, including a 5V regulator, is presented. IC 1 (555) is configured to function as astable flip-flop. its frequency or period may be adjusted by proper choice of resistors R44, R45 and capacitor C6 combination. Here it is for 0.3 second period __ Contact IQ Technologies
Digital Volume Control - This circuit could be used for replacing your manual volume control in a stereo amplifier. in this circuit, push-to-on switch S1 controls the forward (volume increase) operation of both channels while a similar switch S2 controls __ Contact IQ Technologies
Digital volume control has log taper - 04/11/02 EDN Design Ideas: Digital potentiometers provide a compact and convenient way to attenuate audio-amplifier signals. However, most such potentiometers suffer from at least one flaw a nonlogarithmic step increment. To avoid this problem, a user must usually step the potentiometer in a nonlinear sequence to simulate a logarithmic taper Design by Doug Farrar, Los Altos, CA
Digital Volume Control using DS1669 Digital Pot IC - This digital volume control has no pot to wear out and introduces almost no noise in the circuit. instead, the volume is controlled by pressing UP and DOWN buttons. This simple circuit would be a great touch to any home audio project. __ Designed by Aaron Cake
High-resolution volume-unit meter simplifies CD recording - EDN Design Ideas: 06/21/01 Digitally recorded music on CDs offers superior quality to that recorded on vinyl records or tape, but most prerecorded CDs have an annoying characteristic: The average volume levels of the recorded signal can vary by as much as 14 dB from disk to disk. Significant variances, such as 4 dB, can occur from track to track on a single CD. Design by Chester Simpson, National Semiconductor, Santa Clara, CA
LED Audio UV Monitor - The circuit is completely conventional, and is based on the App Note From National Semiconductor. The circuit is shown in Figure 1 and as you can see it uses a single IC and a few discrete components. The extra diode (D3) is included to ensure that the DC to the LEDs is almost unfiltered __ Designed by Rod Elliott ESP
LEDs Indicate Sound Level - 08/25/11 EDN Design Ideas: Build a battery-operated portable meter to measure sound-pressure levels. This Design idea describes a battery-operated, portable soundlevel meter (Figure 1). its portability makes it useful for detecting the source of noise in automotive engines and power trains, factory machinery, and residential HVAC (heating/ventilation/air-conditioning) systems Design by Stephen Kamichik, Ile Bizard, PQ, Canada
