CMOS SCHMITT TRIGGER IC MAKES VCO
By changing the supply voltage fed to a classic 4584 Schmitt trigger type
oscillator, the oscillator frequency can be changed over a range of 50:1.
A 74HCU04 inverter is used at the output of the 4584 to maintain a constant TTL
logic level signal.

Circuit Performs High Speed Voltage to Current Current to Current Conversion -
07/25/02 EDN-Design Ideas: In low-power, single-supply analog
applications, it is often desirable to maintain precise control of voltages much
greater than the positive-supply rail. The circuit in Figure 1 allows you to
amplify the input voltage, VIN, by a factor, A, which resistors R1 and R2 set. The
output voltage, VOUT, equals AVIN, where A=R2/(R1+R2).....(design idea added

Designs for High Frequency Voltage-To-Frequency Converters - AN14 Linear
Technology A variety of high performance V/F circuits is presented. Included are a
1Hz to 100MHz design, a quartz-stabilized type and a 0.0007)% linear unit. Other
circuits feature 1.5V operation, sine wave output an nonlinear transfer functions.
A separate section examines the trade-offs and advantages of various approaches to
V/F conversion. |

DPP Adds Versatility to VFC - 11/14/02 EDN-Design Ideas: The basic VFC
(voltage-to-frequency converter)in Figure 1 comprises an integrator (IC1)and a
Schmitt-trigger circuit (IC2). The integrator converts the dc input voltage, VIN ,
to a linear voltage ramp, and the Schmitt trigger sets the limits of the
integrator's output voltage. Feedback around both circuits provides the condition
for oscillation.....(design idea added 1/05) |

Inverters Form Three Phase VCO - 08/02/01 EDN-Design Ideas: You sometimes need
an inexpensive VCO that can produce evenly spaced three-phase outputs over a wide
frequency range. You could use tracking all-phase filters with only one
oscillator, but this technique is difficult to implement and offers limited range.
Other methods, such as using a DSP, are feasible, but they're complex and
expensive.....(design idea added 1/05) |
