Re: MAX7311 MAX7312

it seems, the datasheet's creator was under educated if was unable to translate binary to hex or hex to binary numbers. Difficult to say what's correct.

Re: problem with starting ispLEVER Classic Project Navigator

I think, you need a licence for ispLever Classic.

Re: expander MCP23009

I have never seen an application or circuit where multiple MCP23009 was used. If you use one MCP23009, set address input to zero. My opinion, analog address setting for multiple MCP23009 can result in problems and instability.

Re: VGA monitor for vintage 8-bit home computers

We are very sorry, but there is no solution for ZX Spectrum. ZX Spectrum, as I know, has an RF output for the TV.

Re: how to replace CRT for HP-85A

if you replace half of HP-85 with newly developed electronics, then Yes.

Re: Digital clock

The solution is easy. You need to convert 7-segment-code either to BCD or to decade-code. If you convert the 7-segment code to decade code, you drive nixie directly. If you convert 7-segment code to BCD code, you need change voltage level from 12V to TTL with a resistor divider and use 74141 nixie d...

Re: function generator - diy

First, you need to specify what you need - functions, frequency range ... In the past were produced several IC's for functions generators. I think the best was Maxim 038. This IC generates sine, square and triangle. Max. frequency was theoretically 20 MHz, really 16 MHz. Unfortunately, Maxim 038 is ...

Re: Cold-Junction Thermocouple compensation

mostly the TC circuit like AD595 or AD597 do it. Check the circuits for thermocouples connection and read the datasheets.

Re: ICL8069 voltage reference

try LT1004LP. Note, the resistors needs to have different value compare to ICL8069.

Re: analog front end for digital AC Voltmeter

That's easy. Use a standard AD converter you like. Maybe 7107 or 7135 or a MCU with ADC. At input you need to make a Precision full-wave AC/DC converter (two OpAmps). At input to precision full-wave AC/DC converter you need a resistor divider.
