MUSIC BOX OUR DAYS

MUSIC BOX present day (Fig. 1.)MUSIC BOX present day (Fig. 2.)Since ancient times people admired the music box. Their creation was only very skilled mechanics, who had besides an ear for music. Now the progress of technology made it easier. Electronic box whose schema is shown in figure 1, may collect even the ham is not very high qualifications. But a musical ear is still required.

PROGRAMMATOR FOR CHIPS

PROGRAMMER FOR CHIPSHams, self-repairing computers and modern means of automation or manufacturing such equipment, are faced sometimes with the need to record information in the chip programmable logical matrices (PLM). With similar problems they have, for example, to meet when you combine the joystick with the keyboard on the basis of MC КР556РТ1 (КР556РТ2). However, it may be that the existing programmer (even among the so-called universal) are not designed for firmware of these chips. To buy new, more specialized and costly electronic device is not always justified. Another thing is to modify what is already at hand.

REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM

The proposed remote control system (remote control) is executed in the form of attachment to the radio commercial production. It allows you to control ten different loads with up to eight fixed channels (the first pressing — on, second — off) and two not fixed (the operation is possible only when the button is pressed).

ELECTROSTIMULATOR ON A COMPUTER

ELECTROSTIMULATOR ON THE COMPUTERDevices for influencing the so-called biologically active points (BAP) are known to many. Including those created by radio Amateurs. Circuitry underlying some BAT-stimulants, saw light in the pages of “Modeller-designer” (see “modelist-Konstruktor” No. 1 and 3 in 1998). However, to implement them was proposed, as a rule, “miscomputing” database. Well, if to approach from positions of today, when even personal supercomputer are not uncommon?

MOSQUITO ELECTRIC CURRENT

MOSQUITO ELECTRIC SHOCKPushkin “Ah, summer red, I would love you, if not for the heat, and dust, Yes mosquitoes, Yes flies” not to recall with the advent of the hordes of winged insects that spoil our mood more than heat and humidity. And then remember the promotional video: in the fight with the flying vermin are becoming increasingly prevalent electronic protection. A few behind the effectiveness of chemical pesticides, it is more gentle to the environment, and this is now of the essence.

WITHOUT ALTERATION OF THE POWER SUPPLY

WITHOUT ALTERING THE POWER SUPPLYIn Amateur radio practice, there are situations when 9-volt DC source you need to obtain 12, and then a higher output voltage. Bail in such cases can I designed a compact transformerless adapter. Made on the basis of two or three common chips and four transistors, it will allow first to improve the initial voltage of approximately 17 V, and then to output the desired 12 V. And stable.

CD PLAYER from old COMPUTER

CD PLAYER from old COMPUTERRecently there is a rapid displacement of the cassettes compact discs (CD). Among the reasons for this and the continuous increase of requirements to quality of sound reproduction and virtually unlimited service life “compacts”, and reducing the value gap between them and the tape carriers of audio information. So, in June 2001, the market price of one CD with modern recordings is consistent with a cost a half to two cassettes. However, equipment to play music CDs is still very expensive and not everyone can afford its purchase.
