COMMENTS ON “LOW DISTORTION OSCILLATOR” The oscillator described can be improved by making the second stage gain greater than one, and taking the output from the first stage rather than the second. In Figure 1. the values of R3 and R4 have been interchanged for this purpose the preset resistor Rf then needs to have approximately twice the original value but there are no other changes. The limiting now takes place in the second stage an the selectivity of the first stage is available to filter the resulting distortion. From an oscilloscope comparison the setting of Rf is considerably less critical than in the original circuit about 96% of the value required just to sustain oscillation is a reasonable compromise between waveshape compromise between waveshape and start - up time.

DIGITAL FUEL GAUGE METER amount of fuel that there is in a Bike. Bike owners need to be particularly aware of fuel level. Having a low amount of fuel can hamper the Bike performance and damage it in the long run. Good sensors are equipped with microprocessors, measure the fuel level in a high temperature environment, and are designed for fast, on request delivery. Low power consumption and easy calibration are other distinguishing features. When properly functioning, fuel level sensors warn when refueling is required. Wiring and Indicator Mostly Fuel gauges in your bike tells only Empty, Mid and Full position. it does not give a clear idea of fuel purchased. suppose your Bike fuel tank has fuel capacity of 15 liters. Now if you purchase only 10 liters, than there is no graduation on the indicator dial to indicate the 10 liter fuel purchase .

upon the float sensor type and its maximum resistance. Since our battery voltage is 12 volts DC, if we connect the sensor to battery directly current flow will be 120 mA approx, which is high, we can easily calculate using Ohms law ie

Here we give you a idea to make digital fuel indicator for your bike using AET DPM kit and float type fuel sensor.

R = Resistance of Float Sensor.

Float type fuel level sensor are commonly use in bikes. It consist of float mounted on moving arm of potentiometer. These float sensor are mounted in the tank where float is inside the fuel and potentiometer is outside the fuel.

V=IxR V = 12 DC Battery Voltage. I = Current in the Circuit 120mA approx. We should further reduce this current otherwise battery will discharge early. So we connect 10,000 ohms resistance in series to Float Sensor, as per circuit given. A fuel level sensor informs about the

Limitation Since Float inside the tank has some limitation of moment and shape of the tank is not linear.

Float Sensor

The float in the fuel tank varies as per fuel level in the tank and controls the viper position from maximum to minimum. When the tank is full the float is at the top and the resistance of the potentiometer is maximum. When fuel tank is empty the float is at the bottom and resistance is minimum. suppose resistance of float sensor varies between zero to 100 ohms depending

The connection between the sensor and the Bike should be stable. A stable connection reduces the probability of getting false readings that may lead to the Bike stopping in the middle of the road if the vehicle has ran out of fuel. Although the sensor may indicate the right level of fuel, the indicator may go haywire as it can't interpret the data. Checking if the sensor is working is the best way to prevent accidents due to false information.

LOGIC GATES The switching action of a transistor makes it especially suitable for use in digital logic circuits where the output is either 0 or 1 depending on the input. Applications of such circuits are to : a). Switch on a water pump on a hot sunny day. b). Sound an alarm if the pilot light of a boiler went off. c). Sound an alarm if a burglar stepped on a pressure pad or shone his torch. d). Switch a light on if it was a cloudy day. e). Add two simple binary numbers together. f). Switch on a fan if a darkroom door was shut and it was warm inside All these things and indeed many more can be done with ELECTRONIC LOGIC CIRCUITS. These circuits are ones that can make decisions. Different decisions need different circuits.

If you refer to the switching circuit for the transistor you will see that the output voltage is high (consider this as 1) when the input voltage is low (consider this as 0). This is the basic NOT gate - there is an output when there is not an input. Combinations of these switching circuits can be made into logic gates that will perform simple decisions within a microprocessor. These logic gates are the basis of all decisions within computers and from now on we will consider their effects rather then their internal structure. We will consider the following types of logic gate: (1) NOT gate - this gives an output 1 for an input of 0. (2) NOR gate - this gives an output 1 for neither of two inputs 1. (3) OR gate - this gives an output 1 for either of two inputs 1 and both

(6) EXCLUSIVE-OR - this gives an output I for either but not both of two inputs 1. (7) EXCLUSIVE-NOR - this gives an output 1 when both inputs are 0 or 1. Because of its wide use in modern digital electronics the NAND gate will be considered as a basic building block for a variety of logic circuits. In fact a number of other logic gates can be constructed from NAND gates as is shown below. The circuit in Figure 1 shows how a NAND gate might be constructed from discrete components, although it would normally be in the form of an integrated circuit.

Interfacing Sensors Hydrogen (H2) Sensor After completing this section you should be able to :

Necessity of Hydrogen Sensor. Explain the working of Hydrogen Sensor. Study of Applications of Hydrogen Sensor. Interfacing Microcontroller to Hydrogen Sensor. Introduction Hydrogen is emerging as a primary fuel source to replace oil-based fuels. Hydrogen-based fuel cells will be the mechanism by which electrical energy will be derived from the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen gases within the fuel cell to make water. All fuel cells require two types of sensors; the first monitors the quality of the hydrogen feed gas, and the second for leak detection. Hydrogen leak-detection sensors must detect over the general level of ambient hydrogen levels, and in a variety of environments. Leak detection can be accomplished by two types of sensors: one to detect the leak and a second alarm sensor with a set-point set at 50 percent of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) of 4 percent hydrogen in air. The need for leak detection is especially acute where there is a large volume of hydrogen consumed. For example, in residential/stationary applications and in automotive applications, where the fuel cell sits in an enclosed volume. The demands on the explosive-limit sensors and the leak-detection sensors are naturally different. Explosive-limit sensors have similar metrics to current domestic CO or fire alarm sensors, in that they are continuously on, do not need to sense

below a certain threshold value and are generally slow to respond. Like these sensors, the placement of H2 sensors, within a volume will be critical, as H2 is a very buoyant gas. For H2 alarm sensors, the detection range will likely be 0.5 to 4.0 percent H2 in air, with a response time of several seconds to tens of seconds. Once a large-scale leak is detected, the buoyant nature of hydrogen means that it is easily dissipated, making it ultimately a safer gas to use than heavy flammable gases which tend to settle. In contrast to leak detection, explosivelimit monitoring, H2 sensors are also required to monitor H2 going into a fuel cell. Technical challenges originate from the multitude of potential generation sources for the gas. These challenges include H2 from reformers, tanks, electrolysers, H2 storage media, biomass and other storage technologies. Catalytic Bead Sensors consist of two beads surrounding a wire operating at high temperature (450°C). One bead is passivated, so that it will not react when it comes into contact with gas molecules. The other is coated with a catalyst to promote a reaction with the gas. The beads are generally placed on separate legs of a Wheatstone bridge

circuit. When hydrogen is present, there is no measurable effect on the passivated bead, whereas there is a significant effect on the catalyzed bead. The increase in heat increases the resistance in that leg of the Wheatstone bridge circuit, which in turn changes the bridge balance signal, which is the sensor signal. In terms of performance specifications, catalytic bead technology is generally used in the 1 to 5 percent H2 range. The response times of the sensor varies, ranging from 10 to 30 seconds for full-scale response Semiconductor Sensors. Solid state sensors utilizing semiconducting oxides generally operate at temperatures above ambient. The electrical resistance of the sensor material will also depend on temperature, and also on the chemical composition of the surrounding atmosphere. These sensors do offer fast response in the range of 01000ppm H2, therefore are useful in leak-detection applications on the end of a sensor wand. Hydrogen Field Effect Transistors (HFET). By using palladium as the gate material for a standard field effect transistor, small changes in the resistivity of the palladium produce large changes in the current-voltage characteristics of the FET. This sensor technology works well in

Small motor with integrated controller

Winchester-based PCB design house Professional Circuit Designs (PCD) is offering design for manufacture (DFM) checks for Gerber and ODB++ files. PCD can also modify the Gerber or ODB++ files to pass DFM checks against ERFs (electronic rules files) from several PCB makers, giving the customer a choice of more than one production site from a common data set.

Nanotec of Germany has introduced a 42mm flange motor with integrated controller and encoder. Called PD2-C, it comes in two electro-magnetic options: 12-48V stepper motor with 0.5Nm nominal torque, or brushless dc (BLDC) motor with 105W nominal output, peaking at 315W. Due to its field-oriented control, the stepper motor behaves like a high-pole DC servo – with a higher torque but lower nominal speed than a BLDC motor. Therefore many applications can be realised without a gear.

G.M. COUNTER

Introduction History - GM Detector A Geiger counter (Geiger-Muller tube) is a device used for the detection and measurement of all types of radiation: alpha, beta and gamma radiation. Thanks to an ingenious German physicist named Hans Geiger, we've all heard the sound of radioactivity. It's just as well we do have Geiger counters because most radiation (radioactive particles and energy) is extremely harmful to living things, completely invisible, and very difficult to detect in other ways. Physics principle behind GM Detector tube A "Geiger counter" usually contains a metal tube with a thin metal wire (Figure 1.) along its middle; the space in between them sealed off and filled with a suitable gas, and with the wire at a very high positive electric potential relative to the tube(a). An electron, positive ion, or gamma radiation penetrating the tube through a mica window, will ionize a number of the atoms in the gas(b), and because of the high positive voltage

of the central wire, the electrons will be attracted to it while the positive ions will be attracted to the wall(c). The high voltage will accelerate the positive and negative charges, they gain more energy and collide with more atoms to release more electrons and positive ions; the process escalates into an "avalanche" which produces an easily detectable pulse of current. With a suitable filling gas, the current quickly drops to zero so that a single voltage spike occurs across the resistor R and that is registered by an electronic counter. A scaler counts the current pulses, and one obtains a�count� whenever radiation ionizes the gas (Figure 2.). Theory of Operation As explained in the working principle of GM counter, the collection of the charge thus produced results in the formation of a pulse of voltage at the output of the tube. The amplitude of this pulse, on the order of a volt or so, is sufficient to operate the scaler circuit with little or no further amplification.

1. Plateau curve Counting Rate

2. Dead-time of the GM counter Every GM tube has a characteristic response of counting rate versus voltage applied to the tube. A curve representing the variation of counting rate with voltage is called a plateau curve (Figure 3). The counter starts counting at a point corresponding approximately to the Geiger threshold voltage; from there follows a “plateau" with little change in the counting rate as the voltage increases. Finally a point is reached where the self-suppressing mechanism no longer works, and the counting rate rapidly increases until the counter breaks down into a continuous discharge. In order to ensure stable operation, the counter is operated at a voltage corresponding approximately to the mid-point of the plateau.

Plug the Geiger-MĂźller tube into the scaler (counter) and switch on.

You will find that the counts vary with voltage and then reach a plateau. A graph would look like this (you do not need to plot the graph):

Start the voltage at about 200 volts. Make a note of the number of counts in, say, a 15 second interval.

After the threshold voltage, the count will reach a plateau. It will stay constant over a range of voltages.

Set the voltage at a value of between 50 to 100 V above the threshold.

As determining the plateau is an important aspect, so is determining the dead time. Build-up of the positive ion space charges after each discharge process turns the G-M tube off for the next incident radiation measurement. A considerable amount of time should elapse before next avalanche can take place in the tube. Depending on the physical characteristics of the

EnvisioN-II detector, this time is of the order of 20 to 300 μs. This dead period makes the G-M tube response as a nonlinear and complicated function of the incident radiation intensity. As it is visible from Figure 4. there is a time needed to process the interaction and during that time, no further pulses will be registered; this is known as the dead time or paralysis time. Dead times range from a few µs for scintillation and the smallest GM types to a few hundred µs for larger GM types. The effect of dead time is shown in the figure below.

Since it's educational Arduino IDE project, do not rely on its readings in real hazardous situations ! The software and hardware where designed to produce tube high voltage with PWM technology. No additional IC's required, everything is controlled with software. By default it programmed to 400V-420V and you can make fine adjust through software calibration from 350V to 480V. If required, the kit can be adjusted for 500V-550V. For higher voltage it possible to make 600V hardware mode. Complete design Schematic and Software code to make your GM counter is provided in the Software CD. Following is Explanation of GM counter construction a.

Theory Generation of High Voltage Generates a variable duty PWM signal using Timer1, to drive the 400V inverter needed to operate the Geiger tube; The invertor doesn't need a multiplier, as the ferrite's transformer

can be generated. This relation establishes that a constant high voltage source can be realized using duty cycle control of the switching transistor.

Figure 5 shows a simple boost converter which works on the principle of fast switching of an inductor current between two different levels. In the schematic shown, the switch is initially closed for a long time and a constant current is established in the inductor. Now, when the current is suddenly switched from the established constant value to zero by opening the switch a high voltage is generated on the pole side of the switch.

Precaution

This momentarily generates high voltage that can be stored in a capacitor through a diode and further processed to act as a source. Since any load connected to the capacitor discharges it, the capacitor charge should be constantly replenished by repetition of the switching action. This is done by replacing the mechanical switch with a switching transistor with a pulse signal in its base terminal. There is a simple relation between the input voltage (Vin) and the output voltage (Vout) of a boost converter in terms of the duty cycle (D) which states. The high voltage generated depends on the duty cycle of this pulse signal. The duty cycle

a. High voltage isolation b. Overshoots due to sudden switching (inductive effect of the central conductor). These issues can be solved by the implementation of a conditioning circuit as shown in Figure 3. Acquisition of raw analogue pulses from GM-tube Then there is a voltage divider connected to the case of the GM tube. This voltage divider is composed of 10K and 100K resistors with a 220 pf bypass capacitor. Then there is a voltage divider connected to the case of the GM tube. This voltage divider is composed of 10K and 100K resistors with a 220 pf bypass capacitor. Conditioning the raw pulses to form logic pulses The output of this voltage divider, which lowers the high voltage pulse from the GM tube, is feed to an NPN transistor which converts the analogue signal from GM-tube to form a logic pulses.

), thereby enabling a current through the inductor to the total cycle time, (There is the ratio of the time for which the switch is kept closed (Ton + Toff), i.e., switch closed time added with that time for which switch is open)

As the conditioning of the logic pulses as now been done, it's time to count the logic pulses.

FUSE REPLACEMENT BY VARIABLE SEMICONDUCTOR The circuit has been designed to replace the fuses of high as well as low current rating by a semi-conductor trip system utilizing the triac of high as well as low power rating. The current rating of this S.C. fuse can be adjusted by choosing a right value of the reference voltage VR of the feed-back loop and hence a particular value of the fuse in amperage can be set by a particular value of reference voltage VR. Thus the same circuit can act as a fuse different current rating. Initially, the high input impedance of op-amp 741 which has been exploited is in the order of » 1MW as a tough switch. The impedance of the human body being in the order of » 500kW and hence when the op-amp 741 is used in the comparator configuration, a simple, touch of the finger at ‘S’ will change the state of the

voltage changes in the mains supply efficiently. When the mains ac voltage exceeds 220V rms, the given circuit trips ‘OFF’ the supply to load and hence puts the triac to ‘OFF’ stage.

output at A. Monoshot 74121 has been used to restrict any further pulses coming from the previous op-amp during ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ time. An Ic7490 counter in ¸ 2 configuration has been used to trigger the triac. Voltage drop across 0.1W (high wattage) resistance (which can be reduced or replaced by a current meter) is fed to an amplifier in the feed-back loop. The amplified voltage is passed through a diode and a parallel combination of 5mF and 10pF capacitors which help in reducing the transient (a high voltage drop across 0.1W due to heavy current at the time of switching ‘ON’). The DC voltage developed across the capacitors is fed to the op-amp. As soon as the voltage at pt B exceeds VR, the output state of the op-amp changes and trips ‘OFF’ the circuit. This circuit also senses the

The importance of the circuit lies in the fact that it replaces the fuse which is a consumable item. where as in this circuit nothing is consumable and therefore has a long life expectancy. Moreover, the trip time is very small as compared to the fusing time of the fuses made until now. The trip time decreases with the increases with the increase of load current from the designed fuse (in this case a S.C. fuse) current. This would avoid damage of costly and sensitive equipments either due to voltage fluctuations or any short circuit inside the equipment occurring suddenly.

Simple Charge Measuring Meter Experiments involving the manufacturing of optical waveguides by electron beam irradiation on a glass substrates, requires the accurate measurement of electrical charge to control the refractive index variation of the substrate.

requirements is shown in figure 1. The applied charge in the form of an electron beam causing current to flow through the substrate is applied to Ic1, functioning as an integrator with the integrating capacitance of 100µF (10 x 10µF dielectric film). After buffering by Ic2, the resulting ramp given by 1 x T/C is compared to a 10V reference and an edge is generated when the voltage exceeds the reference causing the monostable to trigger for approximately 10mS.

In the particular experiment of incremental charge and accumulated charge were required in increments of 0.001 Coulomb up to a total charge of 100,000 Coulombs. A further requirement was to isolate requirement was to isolate the meter circuit from the measuring system.

The pulse is coupled via opto isolator IC6 to an 8 digit counter with built in LCD display and to relay driver Tr2.

Each time that an increment of charge of 0.001 Coulomb builds up, the relay is energized, discharging the 100µF capacitor and the counter is incremented. The system can be calibrated by injecting a current of 100µA into the input and adjusting the reference voltage so that the monostable triggers repetitively at 0.1s intervals. Provision for zero offset control was found to be necessary. However, figure 1 shows a zero offset control which is adjusted for minimum update rate of the display with the 100uF capacitor disconnected.

Bio BuzZ Better sensors for medical imaging, contraband detection

Computers that mimic the function of the brain

A new, ultrasensitive magnetic-field detector has been developed that is 1,000 times more energy-efficient than its predecessors. It could lead to miniaturized, battery-powered devices for medical and materials imaging, contraband detection, and even geological exploration. In this image, laser light enters a synthetic diamond from a facet at its corner and bounces around inside the diamond until its energy is exhausted. This excites "nitrogen vacancies" that can be used to measure magnetic fields.

A team researchers used a promising new material to build more functional memristors, bringing us closer to brain-like computing. Both academic and industrial laboratories are working to develop computers that operate more like the human brain. Instead of operating like a conventional, digital system, these new devices could potentially function more like a network of neurons. Concept illustration (stock image). A new step forward in memristor technology could bring us closer to brain-like computing.

High-tech method allows rapid imaging of functions in living brain Researchers studying cancer and other invasive diseases rely on high-resolution imaging to see tumors and other activity deep within the body's tissues. Using a new high-speed, high-resolution imaging method, Lihong Wang, PhD, and his team at Washington University in St. Louis were able to see blood flow, blood oxygenation, oxygen metabolism and other functions inside a living mouse brain at faster rates than ever before.

Magnetic nanoparticles could allow brain stimulation without wires Researchers have developed a method to stimulate brain tissue using external magnetic fields and injected magnetic nanoparticles -- a technique allowing direct stimulation of neurons, which could be an effective treatment for a variety of neurological diseases, without the need for implants or external connections.Magnetic nanoparticles could allow brain stimulation without wires.

Swine flu outbreak in India raises concern: New strain of H1N1 may carry dangerous mutations

The brain game: How decreased neural activity may help you learn faster

Since December, an outbreak of swine flu in India has killed more than 1,200 people, and a new study suggests that the strain has acquired mutations that make it more dangerous than previously circulating strains of H1N1 influenza. The findings, which appear in the March 11 issue of Cell Host & Microbe, contradict previous reports from Indian health officials that the strain has not changed from the version of H1N1 that emerged in 2009 and has been circulating around the world ever since.

The researchers discovered that the neural activity in the quickest learners was different from that of the slowest. Their analysis provides new insight into what happens in the brain during the learning process and sheds light on the role of interactions between different regions. The findings, which appear online today in Nature Neuroscience, suggest that recruiting unnecessary parts of the brain for a given task -- similar to overthinking the problem -- plays a critical role in this important difference.
