In the ‘Audio Limiter (for DVD)’ circuit, the peak val-ues of the audio signals are used to reduce thedynamic range of the sound. A possible disad-vantage is that the entire audio spectrum is usedto determine the level, so that peak levels in thelow or high frequencies may lead to suppression of,for example, voices in the mid frequency range. Ifwe divide the spectrum into three ranges and foreach range a separate window comparatordefines the signal level then the signals in onerange will have a smaller influence on the othertwo ranges. It is the intention of this filter, there-fore, that the notorious ‘breathing’ of the limiter isreduced.The filters proposed here are standard 3rd ordertypes with crossover frequencies of 200 Hz and2.5 kHz. IC1a/IC2a form the low-pass filters for thelow range, IC1b/IC2b are the high-pass filters forthe high range, and IC1c/IC2c and IC1d/IC2d thehigh- and low-pass respectively for the mid range.The crossover frequencies are not simply the cor-ner frequencies of the filters, but these frequen-cies have been calculated such that the curvescross when the attenuation is 0.25 dB. This waythe detected amplitude remains approximatelyequal across the entire audio spectrum. The realcorner frequency with a 3rd order Butterworth is aratio of 1.6 further away than the –0.25 dB point.The curve shows what this looks like in practice.

Filter for Audio Limiter (for DVD)
At the crossover from the mid to high range, the high-pass fil-ter has a little more damping and it appears therefore that thecrossover point has shifted slightly. This is of no real conse-quence in practice.The connection to the audio limiter is made with a 14-pin DIL-connector to the socket for the comparator of this limiter. Thisfilter utilises the same DIL connector (K1) so that the connec-tion can be made with a short length of ribbon cable. Thepower supply for the comparators is also connected throughthis ribbon cable to supply power for the filter. The power for
the opamps, however, has to be taken from the power supplywith three separate wires. The increase in current consump-tion of the limiter is about 15 mA.In addition, a couple of small changes have to be made to thelimiter: R19 and R38 (both 3k3) have to be replaced with 47-Ω resistors. Otherwise the input impedance of the filters willaffect the level of the input voltage. The PCB shown here isunfortunately not available ready-made.

The joysticks used in games and modelling contain two poten-tiometers with a resistance of about 100 kΩ, which turnthrough 60 to 90 degrees. In fact only one third to one quar-ter of the total resistance is used in these potentiometers. Thediagram shown here should be used when making your ownjoystick with ordinary potentiometers that turn through 270degrees. The values for R1 and R2 are given as guidelines onlyand their optimal value should be found through trial anderror. It will be easier if you temporarily replace R1 and R2 with
a combination of a fixed resis-tor and a preset, since it canbe a time consuming job todetermine the correct values;this is because each of theresistors affects the other.
