Current-limited H-bridge
I attempted to design my own H-bridge (P-MOSFET high-side), using a comparator hooked to a one-shot to limit current, modeled after the one-shot current-limited schematic described here.
Upon applying power (VINP is nominally 12 V), the circuit…

how to design a circuit that gives high output between input transition and next rising edge of CLK
I'm trying to understand how can one build a circuit that does the following functionality:
I see according to the output that I should have a D-FF, that works at Falling-Edge mode, so I need to add an inverter to the CLK. how can I continue from…

Can the output impedance on af op-amp be set to 50 ohm regardless of frequency?
I want to make a circuit with an output impedance of 50 ohms.
I am dealing with negative photomultiplier tube pulses that in 50 ohm load look like in the picture below:
I want to use the pulses to trigger the one shot sub-circuit described here…

Dual edge detector
I am designing a hobby project that will run on a battery so I am trying to reduce power consumption. The SoC I am using has the ability to go into a deep sleep mode where it consumes very little power, and then can be interrupted by a falling edge…

Time relay and solenoid valve
For a project, I need to control a normally closed solenoid valve and be able to apply a current on the valve only for a set amount of time before closing it again, and only once (so no cycle).
I think I could use a time relay to do so, but it seems…

Multisim (2008) - How do I provide a reset stimulus using a controlled one shot pulse, in order to properly initialize my design under simulation?
Apologies for the captured image quality but I have a circuit from a communications textbook Fundamentals of Electronic Communication Systems 3rd Edition, by Louis E. Frenzel Jr.
The image below consist of a Commutating SCF (Switching Capacitive…

Timed one-shot circuit to drive laser module
I'm trying to adapt my Match Guns MGH1 (Air pistol with electronic trigger) to use trigger a laser when shooting. Currently the trigger circuit is driving a solenoid. The circuit board seems to have the trigger signal passing through a monostable…

Uninterruptible Power Supply - Reset the load when power is restored
My system is powered by a redundant supply (UPS).
When the input power supply is removed, the system detects this event and it performs a safe shutdown (actually it is a microcontroller that enters a power-down mode after performing few…

Why does adding this low pass-filter to a monostable multivibrator prevent triggering?
A 24 VDC sinking sensor is tied to an SSR. The SSR converts the signal from 24 VDC to 5 VDC.
The output of the SSR goes directly to input B of a 74121 One-shot. (The diagram has a resistor and capacitor in between that were not there originally).…

Regenerating the Gate of a Gated Pulse Wave
I'm looking for suggestions for alternative solutions to a design problem I have. Basically converting a gated pulse wave back into it's enabling gate. Bottom of the post lists the solutions I've come up with so far.
Background: Immediately…

What does the diode in this D flip-flop "One-shot" do?
Does this diode help discharge the capacitor once the flip-flop is reset?
Thanks in advanced.

One shot monostable multivibrator with OA, output active low
I need to make a one-shot multivibrator with a OA, since in the main design, one OA is available form a package with 4 (single supply).
Triggering can be either POS or NEG since I can adapt the circuit before.
What I really need is OUT pulse to be…

One-Shot circuit has problems with slow voltage ramps
I'm using this circuit:
simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab
The circuit is powered by "24V" , "24V ENABLE" is the trigger. The circuit should act like a one-shot signal (or single impulse) that is OPEN for about 100us…

PIC16F Timer 2 one shot not running
I am using a PIC16F18877 to control some LEDs on a control panel. The whole project is rather huge, involving multiple processors communicating via SPI. This particular processor is controlling 88 LEDs in an 11 x 8 matrix arrangement. Pins RA0-RA7…

One shot pulse generator Low->High->Low even if button is still pressed?
I am trying to use a 555 IC to create a low-high-low pulse that will trigger only once and still go low even if the button continues to be pressed. This is the circuit I have now but the pulse stays high if I continue pressing the button:
Edit:…
