Digital signal level conversion

Digital signal level conversion

When powered by a single power supply, digital systems often need to convert a pulse train of different polarity into a positive or negative pulse output. This application note introduces three simple circuits that can easily and reliably convert digital signal levels. The MAX913 comparator is used in the design.

The circuit shown in Figure 1 uses a positive power supply, which can convert a negative pulse train into a positive pulse output. The comparator (MAX913) shown in the figure can provide both in-phase and inverting outputs (if the system requires only one output polarity, a single output comparator can be selected). The inverting input voltage range of the comparator is between 1.8V and 3.0V. Select R1 = R2 to set the comparator non-inverting input voltage at 2.5V. The output of the comparator is the positive pulse train shown in the figure.


Figure 1. The circuit uses a positive power supply, accepts negative pulse input and produces two complementary bipolar outputs.

The circuit shown in Figure 2 uses a negative power supply, which can convert a positive pulse train into a negative pulse output. The inverting input voltage range of the comparator is between -1.8V and -3V. Select R1 = R2 to set the comparator non-inverting input voltage at -2.5V. The complementary output of the comparator provides a negative pulse train.


Figure 2. The circuit uses a negative power supply to accept positive pulse input and produce two complementary bipolar outputs.

Figures 3 and 4 use the comparator as a buffer to provide a circuit interface for a system with an input signal opposite to the polarity of the system power supply. The circuit in Figure 3 enables the positive power supply system to accept negative pulse signals; in Figure 4, the input signal is positive and the system power supply is negative. Both circuits use NPN transistors to shift the output level of the comparator by VBE (R5 + R4) / R5 ≈ 4.5V (for single-phase output, a single output comparator can be selected).


Figure 3. This circuit converts the negative pulse output to a positive pulse output, and can work with the negative power supply comparator and the positive system power supply.


Figure 4. This circuit converts a positive pulse output to a negative pulse output and can work with a positive power supply comparator and a negative system power supply.

Currently, the outdoor media are mainly composed of text spraying and LED outdoor Advertising Screen. The outdoor advertising screen is also the most popular way of media, but it is regulated by the government, so the area and location must be approved. After the approval, the steel structure and screen body shall be customized according to the site conditions. So the main cost ways of Outdoor Led Display are: Led Display, steel structure, surrounding products and product electricity. Outdoor LED display as a commercial, investment and advertising is the main source of income. Of course, with the popularity of LED outdoor screens, more and more are used for lighting, store layout, and become a bright landscape in a modern metropolis.       

   Outdoor LED display

  LED outdoor advertising screen features: 

1. Strong visual impact, dynamic picture and sound, all-round let the audience feel, effectively transmit advertising information to guide consumption. In the face of overwhelming advertising, memory limitations and unlimited information dissemination, the use of LED display has become a scarce resource.         

 2. According to the shape of the wall, it can be straight or curved. Shape diversity creates more personalization and strong visual impact.         

 3. The credibility of the audience is high. Compared with the rejection and distrust of the advertising flyers artificially distributed on the street, the application of LED display makes the audience more active and passive. It can avoid the help barriers caused by the conscious active avoidance of the advertising audience, and greatly improve the credibility and promotion of the Led Screen advertising content.         

  4. Accurate advertising, the original extensive advertising effect is not good, resulting in waste, so it is more product content to meet the needs of the masses, hot news, hot TV and movies can be used for reference, to control the market heat and laws freely.

  Product structure: outdoor LED display mainly consists of screen body, control system, heat dissipation system and structure. The control mode includes remote control and field control, timing switch, etc.
