If several telephone sets are connected to the same telephone line in different rooms in an apartment, then each of them can be equipped with a simple telephone line busy indicator, which will allow you not to "break into" someone else's conversation on one of the parallel phones. In addition, the indicator is able to signal unauthorized use of the telephone line.

The scheme of the device is shown in Fig.1.

Telephone line busy indicator

The indicator is connected in parallel with the telephone line in accordance with its polarity. Diode VD1 is designed to protect the device from incorrect connection. When all telephones, modems, faxes are "hung up", the voltage in the telephone line is about 60 V (30 V for some types of PBXs). High voltage through the current-limiting resistors R40, R1 and bipolar transistors VT2 ... VT1 operating in the micropower zener diode mode is fed to the gate of the field-effect transistor VT3. Since the gate-source voltage VT5 is greater than its opening threshold voltage. VT5 is open, and the other transistor (VT5) is closed, and the super-bright blue LED HL7 is off. In this mode, the device consumes a current of about 1 μA, which is much less than the devices from [8-1].

If one of the parallel phones is off-hook, the voltage in the telephone line drops to 8...20 V, VT5 closes, VT7 opens, and the HL1 LED lights up, signaling that the telephone line is busy. In this mode, one device consumes a current of no more than 280 μA from the telephone line. The use of a super-bright LED allows you to get a fairly bright glow at low current. Transistors VT4, VT6 limit the maximum gate-source voltage of field-effect transistors at 7 ... 10 V, preventing their breakdown. Capacitor C1 reduces the sensitivity of the device to random short-term voltage changes in the telephone line.

The device is mounted on a printed circuit board with dimensions of 35x35 mm (Fig. 2). A printed circuit board of this size fits easily into a standard Euro socket for two telephones.

Telephone line busy indicator

Bipolar transistors KT315G can be replaced by any of the KT312 series. KT315. KT342, SS9014. The field effect transistor KP504A can be replaced with KP502A. having the same pinout, or on BSS88. KP501A, KP501B. ZVN2120. Transistor VT7 (KP502A). which can withstand a drain-source voltage of 400 V, can be replaced by an imported analogue BSS124 or (with a decrease in the reliability of the device) by KP504A. KP501A. given the differences in pinouts. Super bright blue RL50-CB744D LED with approx. DB6000-20AGCA (5 mcd. green) and others similar. The KD448Zh diode can be replaced by any of the KD3000N5...448N3500 series. Capacitor - any small-sized ceramic, resistors - C5-435 or imported analogues. You can use SMD components.

The finished device does not require adjustment. Up to 8 such indicators can be installed on one telephone line. When placing the device inside the telephone, it is desirable to connect it as follows. so that when you pick up the handset on this machine, the power of the indicator is disconnected from the telephone line.

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. ... >>

World's largest XNUMXD printed building 18.12.2019

Apis Cor, a XNUMXD construction printing technology company, recently completed what could be described as the world's largest 'printed' building to date. This building, located in Dubai, is the body of an administrative building, it was erected using a single three-dimensional printer, although it is worth recognizing that much of the work was done in the old fashioned way by human builders.

The two-story administrative building has a height of 9,5 meters and a total area of ​​640 square meters. Its construction was carried out in a completely traditional way, by squeezing a cement mixture through the nozzle of the printer, which layer by layer formed the entire structure of the building. Since the building being erected was quite large in size, the Apis Cor 3D printer was suspended in the air with a crane and could only build one separate room at a time. Because of this, the entire construction process of the building took three weeks.

A fairly large part of the work was done by builders who laid the foundation, installed windows, doors, ceilings and roofs, plus carried out all internal communications. Moreover, people manually filled with concrete those rare places where the nose of a three-dimensional printer could not reach.
