BLOCK 1
1. Purpose:
To combine 2 input into one and to control the output voltage range from 10
mVpp to 400 mVpp.
2. Schematic of the circuit:

3. Supporting mathematical derivation:








4. Description/explanation of the function of the design:
With the help of the potentiometer and fixed resistors, we can control the gain of
the circuit. And each potentiometer can change the current go through the
voltage source, we can change the gain of both sources respectively.

BLOCK 2
1. Purpose:
To produce a variable gain for high audio frequency and low one.
2. Schematic of the circuit:

3. Supporting mathematical derivation:
No

4. Description/explanation of the function of the design:
When the potentiometer is at its minimum value, the circuit acts as low pass.
When the potentiometer is at its maximum value, the circuit acts as high pass

BLOCK 3
1. Purpose:
Control the output of the block varied between 1.2Vpp and 0Vpp with a
typical 400mVpp (absolute max 1.2Vpp) input.
2. Schematic of the circuit:

3. Supporting mathematical derivation:

4. Description/explanation of the function of the design:
When potentiometer is at its extreme (lets say at its minimum value), the output
is connected to input directly. So at this time Vout = Vin. When potentiometer is
at the other extreme, the output is connected to ground directly. So at this time
Vout = 0V.
5. Graphs/plots:
Not required.

BLOCK 4
1. Purpose:
To create a voltage level meter and to light the LEDs
2. Schematic of the circuit:

3. Supporting mathematical derivation:

4. Description/explanation of the function of the design:
R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 are design to divide the voltage to produce the expected
voltage level. The op-amps are used as comparators, which compare the voltage
at the non-inverting terminal and the one at the inverting terminal. Since the
input voltage varies from 0 to 400mVpp, with this design, LEDs will be lit respect
to different voltage input. And the R
limit
is calculated with V
turn-on
=3.3V given in
the supplement.

BLOCK 5
1. Purpose:
To overcome the loading effect and work up to currents on the order of a couple
tens of milliamps.
2. Schematic of the circuit:

3. Supporting mathematical derivation:

4. Description/explanation of the function of the design:
The TDA7051A audio power amplifier chip (replaced with a voltage controlled
source here) can overcome the loading effect.
