FleaPower Oscillator Consumes only 1 µA - 05/21/98 EDN-Design Ideas: A simple way
to make an oscillator is to use a resistor, a capacitor, and a Schmitt trigger (Figure
1a). However, this circuit uses several tens of microamperes because of the voltage
transitions at the Schmitt trigger's input. The CMOS device consumes almost no power
when the input is either high or low. Whenever the input voltage is at an.....(design

Generate frequencies with arbitrary relationships - 03/16/00 EDN-Design Ideas: The
circuit in Figure 1 and the program in Listing 1 use an Atmel 89C2051 µC to generate a

given here generates the following eight frequencies: 500, 700, 1000, 1050, 1100,
1500, 1700, and 00 Hz. The program delivers these frequencies on eight I/O pins (P17
to P10, respectively)of the µC. The program associates each of these I/O pins with an
internal-RAM address (f1 through f8).....(design idea added 2/06) |
