Comments on the article
Two years ago, we had a KXA-058 chip on sale. On its basis, I made a VHF radio receiver, the circuit of which I present to your attention. The receiver was conceived to work on the headphones from the player. It is minimal in size and easy to carry in the breast pocket of a jacket or shirt. Since the microcircuit consumes a relatively large current (8 ... 14 mA), I used three cylindrical batteries 14 x 50 mm in size as a power source. The rest of the circuit was chosen taking into account the reduced supply voltage and low current consumption.

The K538UN3A microcircuit [1] was used as a ULF. It provides enough power to the load. To match the microcircuit with a low-resistance load, it is necessary to connect a 100 Ohm resistor in series with it. To work on a loudspeaker, you can use the K157UD1 chip [2]. Both microcircuits remain operational when the supply voltage drops to 3 V. To tune the receiver in range, a KV134AT varicap is used (you can use KV132AT), which is connected to the local oscillator circuit through an isolation capacitor. As such a capacitor, I used a free chip capacitor between its third and fourth legs.
To stabilize the reference voltage of the varicap, a micropower stabilizer circuit based on three transistors is used. Transistor VT3 must be germanium. All this complicates the circuit a little, but it is much more economical and stable. The stabilization coefficient is approximately 10. The stabilization voltage can be changed from 1,5 V to 2 V without a noticeable deterioration in the stabilization coefficient by selecting the resistor R7. With the ratings indicated in the diagram, the reference voltage is 2 V. The inductor in the local oscillator circuit contains 14 turns of 0,4 mm PEV wire wound turn to turn on a 6x6 mm ribbed frame with a ferrite trimmer with a diameter of 3 mm.
The setting element is a resistor R6 type SP3-36, etc. Such a resistor is convenient in that it is miniature, multi-turn and has a slider with a label that can be used as a scale.

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. ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Recharging with light
11.01.2000
A small device - a heart stimulator transplanted under the skin - saved the lives of many, but every few years the operation has to be repeated in order to change a dead battery. Osaka University (Japan) is experimenting with a stimulator recharged by light.
A solar battery is introduced under the skin - a thin plate measuring two by two centimeters. By illuminating it with a laser beam for two hours, you can recharge the stimulator for 22 hours of operation. The laser is infrared, with a wavelength of 860 nanometers: this invisible light penetrates the skin well. The laser power is 30 percent of the permissible sanitary standards for human exposure.
About 200 people in Japan wear pacemakers. Heart disease is getting younger, more and more middle-aged Japanese have to connect a stimulator, which means that throughout life they will either have to undergo operations with changing the battery many times, or find a way to recharge it.
