Kits circuits - related electronic projects and circuit diagrams (schematics), this helps you finding desired informations and facilitates your site navigation through all articles database. In every website page you will find a special section (at the beginning or the end) with tags just like this and also different tags associated with the current article. Tags inter-links stories with related Kits articles.
This Audio Clipping Indicator circuit was intended to detect clipping in preamp stages, mixers, amplifiers etc. and can be used as a separate, portable unit, to signal by means of a LED when the output wave form of a particular audio stage is “clipping” i.e. is reaching the onset of its maximum permitted peak-to-peak voltage value before an overload is occurring. This will help the operator in preventing severe, audible distortion to be generated through the audio equipment chain.
Need electronic dog whistle? It is widely known that dogs can hear sounds with frequencies higher than the humans cant hear. Sound frequencies higher than 20 kHz can be hardly detected by humans but animals are very sensitive to it. Basing this fact, an electronic dog whistle can be constructed and used to call dogs back from long distances.
The heart of this digital volume controller DVC circuit is IC2 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. The current consumption is 1mA.
This audio compander circuit schematic is equiped with NE575 produced by Signetics, it is working with a 3 – 7V battery and has a current consumption of 3.5mA at 3V and 5mA at 7V. The companding process ( input compression, output as expander) is improving the signal/noise ratio on a communication line.
