Figure 17 shows a schematic diagram of an oscillator that can be used to tune the intermediate frequency path in radio receivers for various purposes. The frequency of the output signal of the generator - fp=465 kHz * - is set by the quartz resonator ZQ1, and its amplitude - not less than 2 V - depends on the voltage of the power supply Upit.

All resistors in the generator are of the MLT-0,125 type, KM-6 capacitors or the like. Transistor VT1 - almost any npn that has a current gain of at least 100 and a cutoff frequency of at least 100 MHz.

The generator does not require adjustment. To maintain a good waveform at Upitі10 V, it will be necessary, perhaps, only to slightly increase the capacitance of the capacitor C2 (up to 6200 .... 6800 pF).

With such an amplitude of the output signal, the generator may not be connected to the radio receiver - it is enough just to bring them closer. But the output signal level can be reduced, brought to the desired level. So, for example, as shown in Fig. 18. But in this case, the generator itself will need to be placed on the screen (a fragment of it is shown by the dashed line), otherwise the pickups "through the air" will not allow a signal of a sufficiently low level to be obtained at its output. With good shielding of all circuits, the resistor divider can be made stepwise (Fig. 19), the output signal of which can be reduced, if necessary, to fractions of a microvolt. The calculation of such divisors is described in [1].

*) The carrier of the IF path fp=465 kHz is a domestic standard. In foreign communications technology, more often fp = 455 kHz. To set up such equipment in the generator, you only need to change the quartz resonator.

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 ... >>

Primium Seneca keyboard 05.05.2024

Keyboards are an integral part of our daily computer work. However, one of the main problems that users face is noise, especially in the case of premium models. But with the new Seneca keyboard from Norbauer & Co, that may change. Seneca is not just a keyboard, it is the result of five years of development work to create the ideal device. Every aspect of this keyboard, from acoustic properties to mechanical characteristics, has been carefully considered and balanced. One of the key features of Seneca is its silent stabilizers, which solve the noise problem common to many keyboards. In addition, the keyboard supports various key widths, making it convenient for any user. Although Seneca is not yet available for purchase, it is scheduled for release in late summer. Norbauer & Co's Seneca represents new standards in keyboard design. Her ... >>

The world's tallest astronomical observatory opened 04.05.2024

Exploring space and its mysteries is a task that attracts the attention of astronomers from all over the world. In the fresh air of the high mountains, far from city light pollution, the stars and planets reveal their secrets with greater clarity. A new page is opening in the history of astronomy with the opening of the world's highest astronomical observatory - the Atacama Observatory of the University of Tokyo. The Atacama Observatory, located at an altitude of 5640 meters above sea level, opens up new opportunities for astronomers in the study of space. This site has become the highest location for a ground-based telescope, providing researchers with a unique tool for studying infrared waves in the Universe. Although the high altitude location provides clearer skies and less interference from the atmosphere, building an observatory on a high mountain poses enormous difficulties and challenges. However, despite the difficulties, the new observatory opens up broad research prospects for astronomers. ... >>

Gold changes the glow of silicon quantum dots 16.04.2018

An international team of scientists conducted a study and experimentally proved that gold changes the glow of silicon quantum dots.

At first, theoretically, experts convinced the public of this postulate, but then they moved from words to deeds. According to experts, silicon quantum dots can be successfully used in cell biology and the treatment of various ailments, as they penetrate into cells and luminesce. Engineers can create devices based on them that can detect the presence of the disease in patients at an early stage. As a result, mortality will decrease, as timely diagnosis will ensure the correct treatment.

Silicon crystals can be used in solar cells and make them much more efficient. In this case, people would not have to use dangerous components such as arsenic and lead in these devices. When gold interacts with silicon quantum dots, a polariton is formed and the optical properties of the latter change.

According to scientists, the precious metal allows you to control the absorption and emission spectra, and also creates the necessary electrode. Thanks to this, quantum dots can be successfully used in solar cells.
