CAPS PROVIDE VOLTAGE BOOST TO SERIES REGULATOR

This circuit adds some capacitors and diodes to a traditional transformer type series regulator circuit to extend the normal operating range. It can insure regulation during low line voltage conditions or it can squeeze a few more watts out of a plug-in-the-wall poweradapter power supply.

HIGH PASS ACTIVE FILTER COLLECTION

Image
This is a collection of inverting and non-inverting active high pass filter circuits.  I included one, two three, four and six pole filter circuits.  You can change the component value ratios shown to achieve any frequency cut-off you may need. The circuit does not specify an operational Amplifier.  The circuits should be used to select the needed resistor and capacitor components for a particular frequency knee and  slope.

60Hz Notch Filter

Image
High input impedance Amplifiers are ideal for buffering high impedance networks. Here a twin-T notch filter is shown to reject 60Hz signal content by more the 60dB. Small size, low valued capacitors can be used at such a low frequency with high valued resistors when using a CMOS op Amp…
