Design Tips for Rewinding Your Own Transformers

Design Tips for Rewinding Your Own Transformers, October 1944 Radio News - RF CafeNot many people rewind transformers these days, but then even in 1955 when this "Design Tips for Rewinding Your Own Transformers" article appeared in Radio News magazine not many were rewinding transformers. Plenty of radio repair servicemen did, though, because replacements were expensive and getting replacements for other than common transformers could take a long time. There was no searching for one on the Internet and having it delivered in a couple days. Since many - if not most, by necessity - electronics repair shops kept subscriptions to available trade magazines, publishing an article like this provided a great service. Author James Dolan provides all the necessary information for either designing your own transformer from scratch or for modifying an existing transformer to meet your specific requirements...

Reconfigurable Electronics Based on Multiferroics and Nanomagnetism

Reconfigurable Electronics Based on Multiferroics and Nanomagnetism - RF Cafe "Research could lead to the development of new materials with large magnetoelectric (ME) coupling for next-generation multifunctional devices, including, multi-state (neuromorphic-like) circuits and memories, and E-field tunable microwave resonators for secure communications. Multifunctional magnetoelectric materials with high exchange represent a missing 'holy grail' of materials physics. To combine polarization and magnetization in the same solid is nothing short of actually controlling the fundamental nature of electromagnetism in matter. Although magneto-electricity (ME) is an intrinsic phenomenon in some natural materials at low temperature, such single-phase materials suffer from an extremely weak ME exchange..."

Rubberized Circuits for Guided Missiles

Rubberized Circuits for Guided Missiles, February 1957 Radio & Television News - RF CafeYou can go to just about any store these days and buy a tube of RTV (room temperature vulcanizing) rubber caulk. That was not the case as recently as the 1960s and 1970s. Here is a short news item about how Dow Corning Corporation's breakthrough new compound was set to revolutionize hermetic sealing of critical electronic assemblies. It shows entire subassemblies of connectors, wires, and discrete components (no ICs at the time) completely encapsulated in the stuff. I remember at Westinghouse Electric, where I worked as a technician after a tour in the USAF, we used RTV for sealing bulkhead-mounted connectors on torpedo heads and towed sonar arrays. We also used massive quantities of it to seal off machined metal molds for ceramic transducer element arrays prior to potting them with a polyurethane compound. That was cool work. The heavy aluminum molds, about 6-feet long, were placed in a huge, thick-walled aluminum tube and a vacuum...

The Math Behind the Smith Chart

Math Behind Smight Chart - RF CafeMany of us are familiar with the math behind the Smith chart. Some have written spreadsheets and software for creating Smith charts, if only for the satisfaction of being able to do so. It really is quite simple (complex, actually - get it?) to do, but as with most things a genius mind (i.e., Phillip Smith) was needed to think of doing it in the first place. John Dunn, a very smart guy in his own right, posted a good primer on the subject on the EDN website. If you are new to the Smith chart or just want to do a refresh, then surf on over to read his article, and maybe click on the three related links at the bottom for more info.

Electronics-Themed Comics from 1954 Radio-Electronics

Electronics-Themed Comics, June 1954 Radio-Electronics - RF CafeHere for your enjoyment are a few more tech-themed comics from a vintage Radio-Electronics magazine. Television antenna installations and stereophonic audio systems were a big deal back in the day, so lots of comics were centered on the themes. Everything was new and mystical, and ownership of a top-end TV or stereo was a real sign of influence and/or savvy. The comic from page 96 is actually an advertisement for Jensen phonograph needles, which of course were key components to the aforementioned stereo systems. Lost on Millennials (not their fault) and later is probably the allusion to how the bedraggled couple needing to resort to a Flintstones-style (also likely unfamiliar to Millennials) record player...

IEEE Engineering Salary Survey 2020

IEEE Engineering Salary Survey 2020 - RF CafeAccording to this engineering salary report for 2020, pay continued on an upward trend in the U.S. despite the Wuhan Flu debacle. Data collected by technology career company Dice indicated the average salary (not including benefits, bonuses, etc.) of a tech professional in the U.S. increased 3.6% to $97,859 in 2020. Dice based its numbers on a survey of about 9,000 tech employees - which does not really seem to me like a very significant sample size. Looking at the bar chart, most areas reported an increase in salaries, with on the extreme Northwest cities of Seattle and Portland losing ground. The Silicon Valley area went from $123,826 to $126,801, a meager 2.4% increase when living in a land where software developers domicile in their cars due to the cost of housing. Only augmented and virtual reality (AR and VR) software engineers saw a significant increase (13%).

Breakthrough in Quantum EW to Monitor Entire RF Spectrum

Breakthrough in Quantum EW to Monitor Entire RF Spectrum - RF Cafe"Using laser beams to create excited Rydberg atoms, Army researchers say they built a quantum sensor to detect the complete radio frequency spectrum. The findings, published in the Physical Review Applied, show the Rydberg sensor can pick up Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, AM and FM radio, and other communications signals on frequencies as high as 20 GHz. Although more engineering and physics work is necessary, the device has the potential to unleash new potentials for military communications, spectrum awareness, and quantum electronic warfare (EW). Using the lasers, rubidium atoms are excited into desired Rydberg states, allowing researchers to measure atoms' response to an electric field and hone in on a portion of the spectrum they wanted to measure. Because Rydberg atoms are extremely sensitive to the circuit's electric fields..."

A "WAVE" in Naval Electronics

A "WAVE" in Naval Electronics, March 1957 Popular Electronics - RF CafeOddly, the article does not tell you the origin of the acronym "WAVES." From the U.S. Navy's history page: "After a twenty-three-year absence, women returned to general Navy service in early August 1942, when Mildred McAfee was sworn in as a Naval Reserve Lieutenant Commander, the first female commissioned officer in U.S. Navy history, and the first Director of the WAVES, or "Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service". In the decades since the last of the Yeomen (F) left active duty, only a relatively small corps of Navy Nurses represented their gender in the Naval service, and they had never had formal officer status. Now, the Navy was preparing to accept not just a large number of enlisted women, as it had done during World War I, but female Commissioned Officers to supervise them. It was a development of lasting significance, notwithstanding the WAVES' name, which indicated...

U.H.F. Transmission Lines and Converters

U.H.F. Transmission Lines and Converters, June 1954 Radio-Electronics - RF CafeAbout the only kind of transmission line homeowners use today is 75 Ω coaxial cable for television and Internet connections. Up until the turn of this new century (two decades old by now - ugh!), a fair percentage of TV owners still had an antenna mounted on the roof or maybe rabbit ears sitting atop the set. Twin lead transmission line was still a common sight as at least the "last mile" (last few inches, actually) connection via an impedance converter to the pair of screws on the back of a TV or FM radio. By then, most TVs also had an "F" coaxial connector for direct attachment without a converter. Internet connections at the time were telephone cords connected to the modem board inside your computer. It's hard to believe that was just a relatively few years ago that we early WWW users got to cross our fingers when dialing up a local phone number for AOL, Earthlink, Compuserve, Prodigy, Mindspring...

Speed Limit Also Applies in Quantum World

A speed limit also applies in the quantum world - RF Cafe"Even in the world of the smallest particles with their own special rules, things cannot proceed infinitely fast. Physicists at the University of Bonn have now shown what the speed limit is for complex quantum operations. The study also involved scientists from MIT, the universities of Hamburg, Cologne and Padua, and the Jülich Research Center. The results are important for the realization of quantum computers, among other things. They are published in the prestigious journal Physical Review X, and covered by the Physics Magazine of the American Physical Society. Suppose you observe a waiter (the lockdown is already history) who on New Year's Eve has to serve an entire tray of champagne glasses just a few minutes before midnight. He rushes from guest to guest at top speed..."

RCA Numitron Readout

RCA Numitron Readout, March 1970 Popular Electronics - RF CafeRCA's Numitron was their answer to the Nixie tube (manufactured by Burroughs Corporation). It was a simpler 7-segment incandescent display (DR2010) that, with all lines energized, formed the number 8. It worked off of +3.5 to +5 volts, with each element requiring 24 mA of current. The number 8 drew 192 mA of current and dissipated 0.672 W at 3.5 volts and a whopping 0.96 W at 5 volts! RCA marketed a BCD*-to-7-segment display driver (the CD2501E). The Numitron was pitched as a sensible alternative to the 7-segment LED display, but with an element size of 0.35" wide by 0.6" high, there was no real advantage over the LEDs, which were just entering the electronics market in 1970. Numitrons do have a certain nostalgic 'cool' factor, though. It is interesting to note that the author's last name, Wood, is the same as that of Frank Wood, who was issued...

War Bonds Promotion

War Bonds, January 1945, Radio-Craft - RF Cafe"The more things change, the more they remain the same." That old saw has held true throughout the ages, but there seems to be cycles within cycles that causes, to mix in a metaphor, the pendulum to swing back and forth in greater and lesser peak amplitudes, and over long periods of time a bias sets in that causes a perceivable change from the symmetric tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock, to tick----tock-tick----tock-tick----tock-tick. Without an outside-of-the-system input, the bias grows. If you have a "real" gravity-driven pendulum clock, you probably know what I mean. Bringing the system back to symmetry requires adjusting the clockworks movement or "righting" the physical orientation by rotating the clock on the wall or shimming up one side on the shelf until the preferred tick-tock-tick-tock is restored. Economic cycles are much the same, as alluded to in this World War II, War Bonds promotion. There are long periods of overall ups and overall downs, and in-between there are lesser rises and falls. Eventually, those who learn to control the cycles tend to insert a bias into the works...

3-D Diamond Valleytronic Transistor

3-D Diamond Valleytronic Transistor - RF Cafe"Researchers have, for the first time ever, demonstrated electrical control of valley transport in 3-D dual-gate diamond field-effect transistors. Not many people are aware of it, but the diamond is actually a wide-bandgap semiconductor with many extremely good properties, such as high thermal conductivity, high breakdown field, high carrier mobilities, and chemical inertness. These properties, together with the possibility to synthesize high-purity, single-crystalline diamond make it a very interesting material and a candidate for use4 in power electronics. The low impurity concentration achieved when fabricating diamond, together with its rigid lattice, causes it to exhibit a uniquely low scattering rate, especially at low temperatures..."

Behind the U.L. Label

Behind the U.L. Label, August 1955 Popular Electronics - RF CafeThe Underwriter's Laboratory (UL) is an entity that seems to have been around forever. A lot of people - maybe most people - assume that it is a government entity. In fact, it is a non-profit organization sponsored by the National Board of Fire Underwriters (later changed to American Insurance Association, then to APCIA). Its roots are traceable back to the Chicago World's Fair in 1893. Concern over the potential fire hazard of Edison's light bulbs was the impetus for the effort. Another aspect of the UL that a lot of people don't know is that the UL label of approval is no guarantee that the device works properly, only that is passes standards of safety as it relates to fire hazards. This article in the August 1955 edition of Popular Electronics magazine gives a brief history.

17 Best RTL-SDR Software Defined Radio Dongles

17 Best RTL-SDR Software Defined Radio Dongles - RF CafeRF Cafe visitor Tommy Reed sent me this link to a blog he recently posted on FromDCtoDaylight.com (great name) website entitled, "17 Best RTL-SDR Software Defined Radio Dongles." About six months ago I bought the Nooelec NESDR Smart v4 bundle to use with a modification I'm making to a couple vintage 72/75 MHz radio control systems. The 3rd-party interface and processing software is OK, but could be better. Otherwise, it works quite well. Says Tommy: "Software Defined Radios (SDRs) are become more and more popular. This is partially due to the wide availability of low cost USB dongle SDR radios based on RTL2832U demodulator chipset. This is where the 'RTL' in RTL-SDR comes from. While these low cost SDRs are not as capable as some of the higher performance SDR radios, they do offer a good bang for the buck. In this post we'll take a look at 17 great RTL-SDR dongles..."

Special Tubes by Sylvania

Special Tubes by Sylvania, January 1945, Radio-Craft - RF CafeWith most solid state devices, be they discrete elements or integrated circuits, discerning their functions by visual inspection is nearly always impossible. A trained observer can use a microscope on a bare die to get a good idea of what the various parts do. Memory banks, transistors, resistors, capacitors, etc., are usually pretty obvious even to someone relatively new at the job. Opaque overmolded packages and/or extremely small features complicate the task. In the vacuum tube days, anyone accustomed to working with them could fairly easily look at the the arrangement of heaters, cathodes, grids, and plates - sometimes singular but often multiple - and figure out the function. Experts could even make a fair guess at the key electrical specifications. Of course that only applied to those with clear glass envelopes. Tubes with special shapes might have been a bit more difficult to guess the application. To wit, the long, skinny R-1110 "Pirani Tube" shown here is an example. It is designed to measure ambient pressure...

NASA Helicopter Will Soon Fly on Mars

NASA Helicopter Will Soon Fly on Mars - RF Cafe"The Perseverance rover's Mars Helicopter (Ingenuity) will take off, navigate, and land on Mars without human intervention. Tucked under the belly of the Perseverance rover that will be landing on Mars in just a few days is a little helicopter called Ingenuity. Its body is the size of a box of tissues, slung underneath a pair of 1.2m carbon fiber rotors on top of four spindly legs. It weighs just 1.8kg, but the importance of its mission is massive. If everything goes according to plan, Ingenuity will become the first aircraft to fly on Mars. In order for this to work, Ingenuity has to survive frigid temperatures, manage merciless power constraints, and attempt a series of 90 second flights while separated from Earth by 10 light minutes. Which means that real-time communication..."

Understanding Transistor Circuits

Understanding Transistor Circuits, August 1959 Popular Electronics - RF CafeIt had been only a little over a decade since the transistor was invented when this article appeared in the August 1959 edition of Popular Electronics. Transistors were still a mystery to most people, including engineers, technicians, and hobbyists. Author James Butterfield takes a unique approach in presenting the material by writing it as a dialog between an instructor and a student. If you are also new to transistors, this will be worth your while to read. The basics will never change. As an aside (and mentioned in the article), while still a technician I had a manager one time who actually told an engineer working for him that a transistor could be made by soldering two diodes together and using the center node as the base connection...
