Comment by periblepsis on Sallen key second order design
Jeep, you aren't getting a gain of 10. Not in the Sallen-Key topology there. Gain and damping factor/Q are mutually dependent on gain and there is no way to get more than a gain of 3, memory serving....

I don't see an "X" type in the schematic, so I'm assuming this is purely passive. Did you take into account the loading? Because if not then your computation of the -3 dB point is wrong. Please show an...

No responses even in comments in a couple of hours. So do you agree that since the scope, at the ADC input, is showing one thing you appear to accept and the captured data in memory (once the internal...

@qrk Google tells me that it is the Air Force Civilian Service. But of course that can't be right. ;) So it might be an Aircraft Flight Control System...?

Good answer. Thanks. My recollections were about a common choice with equal-valued resistor and capacitor values. So +1 for this. And I'm going to add an answer when I get a moment, just to add a few...

@AllenStroker Here's a speaker model developed by an IEEE member who identifies as analog. Note how the speaker is divided up into distinct physical processes that are each modeled separately. Just...

@EdinFifić Thanks for sharing your simple approach to a discrete 555 that one might try and build and perhaps use to understand it better, too. Using a single BJT for each comparator on the voltage...

I'll leave this for the experts here. (I'm not one.) But I think it is because current control is very much less prone to the effects of stray/parasitic capacitance.
View ArticleComment by periblepsis on Quadrature encoder interface without capacitor
R1 is obvious and R2 seems to me both protective (to the quad switches) and also perhaps to provide a semi-known/predictable output impedance (2:1, depending on output state is "close enough".) You may...

It sounds like your window is bracketed by \$\pm 1\:\text{V}\$ around the ground reference and that any excursion outside this bracket triggers a latch. What supply rails do you have available? What...

You will need an amplifier circuit: either buy, or build from plans, or design the plans and build. You will also need some way to convert digital output to analog, in the process: Internal or external.
