Stereo Digital Volume Control

Here is the circuit diagram of stereo digital volume control. This circuit could possibly be applied for upgrading your manual volume management within a stereo amplifier circuit. In this particular circuit, push-to-on switch S1 controls the forward (volume enhance) operation of the two channels while a identical switch S2 controls reverse (volume reduce) operation of… Read More »

A Hierachical Priority Encoder

The above diagram is a hierachical priority encoder circuit. Described on wikipedia, priority encoder is a electronic circuit or algorithm that compresses multiple binary inputs into a smaller number of outputs. The output of a priority encoder is the binary representation of the ordinal number starting from zero of the most significant input bit. They… Read More »

Circuit For Quiz Contest : Electronic Jam

This is the design diagram of electronic jam. This jam circuit can be implemented in quiz contests in which any participator who pushes his switch (button) prior to the other participants, will get the first opportunity to answer a question. The circuit provided right here allows up to eight participants with each one assigned a… Read More »

1Hz Clock Generator with Chip On Board (COB)

This is the 1Hz clock generator circuit with Chip On Board (COB). Commonly, the circuits to produce 1Hz clock for digital clock and counter circuits applications implement ICs in conjunction with a crystal and trimmer capacitors, etc. Even so, equivalent or improved accuracy could be obtained working with a chip-on-board (COB) device found inside a… Read More »

ADC0808 – Simple Analoque to Digital Converter

ADC0808 – Simple Analoque to Digital Converter This is a very simple analoque to digital converter circuit based on 8-bit analog-to-digital converter ADC0808. Typically analogue-to-digital converter (A/D Converter / ADC) requires interfacing through a microprocessor to convert analogue information into digital format. This needs extra hardware and appropriate software, resulting in more complexity and hence… Read More »
