In the article by E. Zuev "Probe for testing audio equipment" in "Radio", 1999, No. 8, p. 68, it was told about a small-sized probe on the K174XA10 chip, with which you can trace the passage of a 3H signal through amplifier stages of various equipment and detect malfunctions.

If there is no specified microcircuit, the probe is easy to perform on discrete elements (see figure). It is also small-sized and allows you to listen to the signal by touching the probe directly to the outputs of the magnetic head, for example, the player or the outputs of the parts of the amplifying stages.

Discrete Mini Probe

In addition to those indicated in the diagram, transistors KT315G, KT315E with a current transfer coefficient of more than 100 are suitable. Oxide capacitors - K50-35 or other small ones. Fixed resistors MLT, variable R1 - SPZ-4aM. The X3 connector includes a small headphone (or stereo phones) with as much impedance as possible. Probe X1 (they touch the terminals of the parts of the stages under test) - a piece of copper wire with a diameter of 2 mm and a length of 70 mm, X2 (it is connected to the common wire of the controlled structure) - a crocodile clip connected to the parts of the probe with a stranded mounting wire.

The probe is powered either from an autonomous source or from a battery design.

The device is adjusted with a supply voltage of 9 V. First, by selecting resistor R2, the voltage on the collector of transistor VT1 is set to approximately 4 V. Then, the phone is connected to the X3 connector and, by selecting resistor R5, the voltage is set at the collector of transistor VT2. equal to half the supply.

When working with a probe, a variable resistor is used to set the sound volume in the phone so that there is no distortion.

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

Soft electronics has become multi-layered 22.08.2018

Soft PCBs could change the way we think about electronic devices. Flexible and soft electronics will allow you to create medical sensors that you can comfortably wear on yourself without fear of breaking. But how soon will we have such devices?

Various research groups have repeatedly demonstrated prototypes of soft electronics. As a rule, in such cases, they try to combine existing electronic components with a soft and durable substrate, or they try to create new flexible transistors and microcircuits. The employees of the University of California at San Diego have taken another step towards the release of "electronic-soft" technologies beyond the walls of laboratories. They took the first path by incorporating microscopic components into elastomer substrates, a polymer with high elasticity and viscosity.

However, unlike previous attempts, this time the soft board was made multi-layered. Previously, this did not work: the main difficulty was that it was not possible to create strong electrical connections between the layers. In ordinary, solid boards, this is no longer a problem, modern printed circuit boards can have several dozen layers, and the power of devices can be increased without changing their size.

To create a soft "layer cake", Zhenlong Huang (Zhenlong Huang) and his colleagues used laser technology: holes were burned into the thinnest elastomer substrates and then filled with a conductor material. Inside the layer, the components are connected using flexible copper threads twisted into spirals, which the authors of the work called "bridges"; There were four layers in total.

A soft device the size of a coin was literally stuffed with functions: a wireless communication module and a whole set of sensors (accelerometer, etc.) fit in it. A soft board was attached to the neck, head, hands, which made it possible to take an electroencephalogram, monitor heart rate and breathing. With the help of the board, it was also possible to control the robot's hand, tracking nerve impulses in the hand of one of the researchers: the robot moved its "fingers" and "hand" after the person.

In the future, the California laboratory intends to further increase the number of layers. Perhaps thanks to this technology, amazing new medical devices and all kinds of agile and agile soft robots will appear faster than we think.
