BD139 and BD140 Complementary Transistors

This pair is my favorite when driving small solenoids or motors. SOT-32 and 12 Watts on Heatsink. This means any small solenoid, relay or DC motor can be controlled with this. I would use it upto 24V DC and max of 1A for applications of full on and full off. The pair is complementary NPN and PNP and well matched, this makes it suitable for the push-pull final stages of mini amps or small motor drivers.

Wenzel Associates Technical Library

Since 1978, Wenzel Associates has defined the state-of-the-art in ultra-low phase noise while providing system manufactures with the highest quality, cost effective frequency components and instruments.

Wenzel Associates introduced the Blue Tops system building blocks to offer oscillator users well-characterized, low noise components, which improved the time to market for new frequency based systems.

CA3140 and CA3130 Special Opamps

CA3140 and CA3130 are originally RCA part numbers( i feel). They are amazing close to ideal opamps, the input offset has to be trimmed. I used to use it when high input impedance is required. 1.5T ohm 10pA is the specs. A Electrometer can be made with just one opamp.

CA3130 has the additional Merit of swinging to the rails, if you are on a +/- 12V supply, the output will be +/-12V. This is a feature required in control applications.nn

Surge Protection and Lightning Arrestors

Supplementary to EMI/RFI/EMC Immunity of an Equipment. Many Installations are subject to Highly Disruptive Electrical Environment not just EMI. Depending on the budget and the situation a solution has to be found. Sometimes a CVT or an Isolation Transformer can do a lot of good.

Converting all Energy inputs to battery energy and having a Isolated Synthetic Sine Supply may be an expensive but good solution. Either way the devices that face the harsh environment have to be over rated along with these protections. - delabs design Notes

Electrical Safety Code Manual

In the case of the electrical industry, safety is critical and the codes and regulations that determine safe practices are both diverse and complicated. Employers, electricians, electrical system designers, inspectors, engineers, and architects must all comply with safety standards listed in the National Electrical Code, OSHA and NFPA 70E.

Maintenance of Temperature Measurement Devices

There are many different types of temperature measurement devices, each one tailored to meet a specific need. This fact sheet provides information on the types, use, and calibration of temperature measuring devices. It also provides guidelines for the selection and proper maintenance of common thermometers and temperature sensors.

Selection and Maintenance of Temperature Measurement Devices

BC557 PNP Transistor General Purpose

BC556, BC557 and BC558 PNP Amplifier Transistors are not only popular today but very ancient, it is used as a General Purpose device and a popular LED control in small products.

This Silicon device along with some others replaced Germanium Devices in Preamplifiers and Portable Transistor Radios  and Portable Tape Recorders. A Complement is the BC547B NPN General Purpose Transistor. Now for Specs 45V, 100mA, 200 beta approx.

CD4093BC Quad NAND Schmitt Trigger

The CD4093B consists of four Schmitt-trigger circuits. Each circuit functions as a 2-input NAND gate with Schmitt-trigger action on both inputs. The gate switches at different points for positive and negative-going signals.

The difference be-tween the positive (VTa) and the negative voltage (VTb)isdefined as hysteresis voltage (VH). All outputs have equal source and sink currents and con-form to standard B-series output drive.

74HCT373 Octal transparent D-type latches

74HCT373 - High Speed CMOS Logic Octal Transparent Latches with 3-State Outputs. The 'HCT373 devices are octal transparent D-type latches. When the latch-enable (LE) input is high, the Q outputs follow the data (D) inputs. When LE is low, the Q outputs are latched at the logic levels of the D inputs.

What it can do ? - This is like a Byte of Memory, A Byte means 8 Bits. A Bit Means one Input or Output Pin of an IC, Which understands Logic 1 is High and Logic 0 is Low.
