The IC loudspeaker protection device is designed to work with a stereo amplifier powered by a bipolar source and connected to the load without a coupling capacitor. It turns off the loudspeakers when a DC voltage exceeding -1,2 V appears on any of the outputs of the amplifier, and when any of the bipolar power sources, common in this case to the amplifier and the protection device, fails.

The device includes a time relay that delays the connection of the loudspeakers for a time longer than the duration of transients in the amplifier associated with turning on the power.

IC Loudspeaker Protector

The device consists of two low-pass filters (R1C1 and R2C2), a diode distributor (V1 - V4), two comparators made on the op-amp A1, A2, and an electronic key on transistors V11-V13 loaded on the relay winding K1. If the amplifier is working, then with the power on, the diodes V6, V7 are closed by the positive output voltages of the op-amp A1, A2, and the capacitor C3 begins to charge through resistors R9, R12 from a stabilized voltage source on the zener diode V8. At the moment when the voltage on the capacitor reaches 1,3 ... 1,4 V, transistor V12, and then V13 open, and relay K1 is activated, connecting the speakers to the outputs of the amplifiers of the left and right channels.

When a voltage of positive polarity exceeding 1,2 V appears at the output of any of the amplifiers, the output voltage of op amp A1 becomes negative, diode V6 opens, capacitor C3 quickly discharges through it and circuit R11V9, and transistors V12, V13 close. As a result, relay K1 releases, and its contacts disconnect the loudspeakers from the amplifiers. Similarly, the process proceeds when the output of any of the voltage amplifiers of negative polarity appears (in this case, the output voltage of the op-amp A2 becomes negative, and the capacitor C3 is discharged through the R11V9V7 circuit), as well as bipolar voltages of any value exceeding the threshold.

The reaction of the device to the disappearance of the supply voltage of positive polarity is due to the fact that this voltage is used to power the transistors V12, V13. When the supply voltage of negative polarity disappears, transistor V11 closes (bias voltage is supplied to its base through resistor R10 from a source of - 5,6 V), breaking the collector circuit of transistor V12. In both cases, relay K1 is activated and disconnects the loudspeakers from the amplifiers.

The device uses the RES-9 relay (passport RS4 524 200).

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Methane beer festival 26.12.2019

The contributions of humanity to the formation of a warm blanket of our planet from greenhouse gases, although insignificant, are numerous. And methane, which, in terms of its harmfulness, that is, its heat-holding capacity, gives a twenty-fold head start to carbon dioxide, is one of the most important. This means that the fight against methane emissions is a serious task for climate advocates. And in order to fight seriously, you need to study the enemy well. It would seem that he noted for himself that cows give a hundred million tons of methane per year, became a vegetarian and calmed down in the hope that he had made a feasible contribution to the uncompromising struggle for the cold. But even in this case, you can’t relax, because the enemy has many faces and can lurk in an unexpected place.

Let's take folk festivals. It would seem, where is the emission of methane? But Chen Jia and Florian Dietrich from the Technical University of Munich, with the help of Dutch colleagues and smart devices, got close to the famous Munich beer festival - Oktoberfest. According to them, for 16 days on the central square of Munich, 2018 million people fell to the sources of the foamy drink in 6. They drank 8 million liters of beer, spent 100 million liters of water flushing sewage, 2,9 million kW of electricity and 201 liters of natural gas, of which 79% went to cooking and the rest to heating visitors and vendors.

Before the start of the holiday, methane emission was almost zero, and during the holiday it increased to 6,7 micrograms per second per square meter. Over the weekend, the issue rate doubled, as did the number of visitors. It would seem that this directly indicates that the source of methane is people who excrete it like ruminants. An no. Although methane can be seen in the exhalation of half the people, its amount is small: Oktoberfest attendees could breathe in only 0,13 micrograms of gas per second per square meter of area. The sewage system, although it took 100 million liters of water and 8 million liters of drunk beer, produced negligibly little methane during the holiday - the processing of waste by bacteria requires much more time than 16 days. There remains the spent natural gas, which, in terms of methane, amounted to 134 tons. To ensure the calculated emission, 16 tons had to fly into the atmosphere in 1,47 days, that is, 1,1% is a completely normal estimate for gas leaks.

The conclusion follows from this: it is not beer at the holiday that contributes to global warming, but gas. Abandoning it, say, switching to spirit lamps or gasoline stoves, will significantly improve the situation. True, there was a question for the authors of the work. Usually for portable burners, namely they are used in mobile pavilions, bottled gas is used. And this is not methane at all, but a mixture of propane and butane. If just such a gas was used at Oktoberfest, then the search for a source of festive methane will have to continue.
