I've been tinkering with a phasing exciter that uses easy-to-get parts and produces a very clean signal from the sound card quadrature outputs in Jason and SpecLab. A preliminary schematic (hand-draw
Hi John, Nice drawing, and much more complete than my "sketch" hi.. One question... Was the L.O. using 74AC74 + 74AC08 better than the simple 74 HC 107 method ? ...and one suggestion: To eliminate th
Wolf, Was the L.O. using 74AC74 + 74AC08 better than the simple 74 HC 107 method ? No! I had done the 74/08 section before you produced the schematic for the HC107. It is simpler. Is that dual-JK ver
One other note at this point. I attempted to use a CD4017B, but it just wasn't fast enough to provide good carrier and sideband suppression. This is definitely a project for HC or AC logic. John, if
Rik, if you want to use 4000 series logic in fast speed applciactions it can be used at 15V. This will increase the speed by a factor 3..4 compared to 5V. Agreed. But I would not have been able to us
Hi Rik and John, Another problem with the 4017 "Johnson" counter is, the output timing is not very precise because it is an asynchronous counter. To divide by 4, one of the 4017's outputs (Q4) must b
