[Ideas For Design]
Missing pulse detector protects transformer
Designed as part of the controller of an astronomical telescope, this circuit delivers an ac drive waveform to the drive motor. The frequency of the ac output is set by an external oscillator that generates the desired drive rate. But what... — Contributing Author

[Ideas For Design]
Single-ended to differential twisted-pair driver
The proliferation of personal computers and particularly of video applications has created a need for sending high-speed analog signals over twisted pair for short distances (up to 200 feet). Twisted-pair data transmission is easy to set up and the... — Contributing Author

[Ideas For Design]
RS-232 stepper control exhibits versatility
A number of “smart” motion-control chips, commonly called “indexers,” are available that will do a bang-up job of generating accurate ramps and slews in stepper-motor-driven actuators. But if the motion profile demanded by an application is really... — W. Stephen Woodward
