In some cases of checking logical devices, it is necessary that the measuring device, in this case a probe, does not change the operating mode of the device under test during the measurement process. This requires a probe with a high input impedance.

Through the resistor R1, the signal is fed to the gate of the field-effect transistor V3. Diodes V1, V2 serve as an input voltage limiter, thanks to which it is possible to connect the probe to circuits energized with 250 V. After the source follower, the signal is fed to emitter followers (transistors V4 and V5), which reduce the mutual influence of microcircuits and shift the input signal levels, which necessary for a clear operation of the logic elements D1.1 and D1.2.

With the values ​​of the resistors R2-R5 indicated in the diagram, the threshold voltages of operation "0" and "1" are equal to 0,4 and 2,4 V, respectively. If other values ​​"0" and "1" are selected in the device under test, you should select these resistors.

When the input voltage exceeds the threshold value "1", a logical "1.1" appears at the outputs of the elements D1.2 and D0, and the segment d on the indicator H1 lights up ("1" is displayed). If the voltage at the probe input is below the threshold voltage of logical "0", a logical "1.2" appears at the output D1, a logical "2" appears at the output D0A, and the segment f, a, b and g lights up (the sign "0" is displayed) . If the input voltage is between 0,4 and 2,4V (intermediate level), the logic "1" will be at the outputs D2.1 and D2.2 and "0" at the output D2.3. Now the segments a, b, g are lit (the P sign is displayed) The input pulses are detected by the waiting multivibrator (elements D1.4, D2.4, C5 and R13). When the input signal goes from "0" to "1" and vice versa, negative pulses are generated at the output of element D2.3. A point (segment h) is connected to the output of the waiting multivibrator. At an input pulse frequency of less than 20 Hz, the dot flashes noticeably, at frequencies greater than 20 Hz, the dot glows continuously.

If the input pulses are close to the meander, the signs "0" and "1" are lit simultaneously with the dot, and their relative brightness depends on the duty cycle of the pulses.

With a large or small duty cycle, one of these signs and a dot glow.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Graphene Shoe Drying Agent 02.05.2020

Silica gel is the most common chemical agent for providing a dry space in many things, especially in shoes, where it is placed in a special niche under the sole - which helps to prevent the accumulation of excessive amounts of moisture and the growth of fungi. However, microbiologists from the Australian University of New South Wales today presented the results of their work on the properties of graphene oxide as such a chemical agent - based on such a well-known material as graphene, this variety of it really has impressive capabilities.

Specialists have long observed the action of graphene oxide - consisting of hydrogen, carbon and oxygen atoms - in the context of its interaction with other chemical agents and direct moisture on various surfaces. They created a special multilayer graphene structure, where each layer serves as a certain insulator of absorbed moisture, which makes it possible to absorb it noticeably faster and more efficiently, unlike traditional agents of this type.

In particular, the scientists found that their new graphene structure has the ability to absorb up to 0,58 g of water per 1 g of graphene oxide, which is a really promising result. What's more, they found that each layer is particularly easy to control when exposed to certain light and laser patterns - and this could lead to the development of new graphene systems.

The scientists point out that in the course of studying the properties of graphene, they found that by changing the scale of the space between each individual layer of the structure, they can achieve ultra-precise tuning of the speed and frequency at which graphene oxide absorbs water. This last aspect will definitely come in handy in creating new technological systems for using graphene as a drying chemical agent, especially since from an economic point of view, its use is quite justified and more rational than silicon.
