Apple – iPhone – Web Phone with Apps

Apple who primed the Home PC Technology, has again redefined the ways a Mobile phone can be used.

This has not only given Apple Fans and many new enthusiasts a way to use a Handheld gadget, it also has sent ripples of Creative Adrenaline in other Cell Phone Makers. This means better phones, a better world. Now the phones can do a lot more, than just plain talk.

The Apple iPhone is a Beacon of New Innovative Technologies, an opportunity for developers, An empowerment for the consumer to make his work more productive and an Advanced tool for business. Apple iPhone means Agility for Businessmen and is not short on games and multimedia for youngsters.

Phone – Make a call by tapping a name or send a text with the intelligent keyboard.

iPod – Enjoy music and video on a widescreen display and shop for music with a tap

Internet – Browse the real web, get HTML email, and find yourself with GPS maps.

 

The LM3914 is a monolithic integrated circuit that senses analog voltage levels and drives 10 LEDs, providing a linear analog display. A single pin changes the display from a moving dot to a bar graph. Current drive to the LEDs is regulated and programmable, eliminating the need for resistors. This feature is one that allows operation of the whole system from less than 3V.

LM3914 – Versatile and Easy use Display

  • Drives LEDs, LCDs or vacuum fluorescents
  • Bar or dot display mode externally selectable by user
  • Expandable to displays of 100 steps
  • Internal voltage reference from 1.2V to 12V
  • Operates with single supply of less than 3V
  • LED driver outputs are current regulated, open-collectors

The circuit contains its own adjustable reference and accurate 10-step voltage divider. The low-bias-current input buffer accepts signals down to ground, or V-, yet needs no protection against inputs of 35V above or below ground. The buffer drives 10 individual comparators referenced to the precision divider. Indication non-linearity can thus be held typically to ½%, even over a wide temperature range.

Electronic Shift Monitor

The Security Guard duty monitor below, shown in eight circuits at Digital Circuits – 1 are examples of logic circuits, i have converted them from the DOS Orcad to Orcad 9 and corrected some errors a few years back. These circuits can be used for looking at the logic blocks or to learn. This product was built and sold to some firms many years back. Now these designs are best done with a PIC or Atmel chip.

LF398 – Monolithic Sample and Hold Circuit The LF198/LF298/LF398 PDF are monolithic sample-and-hold circuits which utilize BI-FET technology to obtain ultra-high dc accuracy with fast acquisition of signal and low droop rate. Operating as a unity gain follower, dc gain accuracy is 0.002% typical and acquisition time is as low as 6 µs to 0.01%. A bipolar input stage is used to achieve low offset voltage and wide bandwidth. Input offset adjust is accomplished with a single pin, and does not degrade input offset drift. The wide bandwidth allows the LF198 to be included inside the feedback loop of 1 [Read More ....]
