Abstract

1280297 Transistor amplifier and switching circuits BRK ELECTRONICS Inc 27 May 1969 [29 Feb 1968 8 Aug 1968 13 Nov 1968] 10582/69 Heading H3T [Also in Division G4] In a fire alarm (see Division G4) a horn H is operated in response to the combination of changes in output of a humidity-sensitive resistance R and an ionization chamber R5. Resist. ance R is connected with resistor R2 in a bridge circuit arranged so that a rapid increase in humidity causes a rapid reduction in the value of resistance R, giving an increase in current in MOS transistor Q1. C1 shunts a negative feedback loop hence the circuit does not respond to slow changes. In the event of simultaneous presence of smoke, the resistance of an ionization chamber R5 changes sufficiently to change the current in MOS transistor Q3, the combination of currents from Q1 and Q3 being sufficient to turn on a thyristor Q5 which operates a horn H. Transistors Q4, diodes D and variable resistor R8 provide adjustable reference voltages for the two forms of sensor. R2 may be replaced by or shunted by a further transistor so that Cl charges rapidly on said switching on. Low-battery voltage alarm.-If the voltage of battery B falls to a value predetermined by R11, then capacitor C4 charges via R12 from a further battery B2 so as to trigger a programmable unijunction transistor Q6 which, in turn, turns on thyristor Q7 which operates the horn H. In Fig. 1 (not shown), the horn H is replaced by an indicator lamp and the circuit is operable from either 120 or 24 V. supply.
