8_BIT_PROGRAMMABLE_INPUT

Published:2009/7/14 4:24:00 Author:May

Serves as digitally programmable frequency source covering 10 to 2550 Hz for systems under microprocessor control. Frequency change is essentially instantaneous, assuring immediately valid data. Uses MC1408L8 8-bit monolithic D/A converter to supply constant current for charging C in negative direction. When capacitor voltage exceeds lower negative threshold voltage at pin 3 of LM311 high-impedance comparator A1, comparator changes state and sets 7476 flip-flop.This turns on Q1 through level-shifter Q2, discharging C until it exceeds higher threshold voltage at pin 2 of A2. Flip-flop then resets and C begins charging again. Second half of 7476 serves as divider. To cover above frequency range, values should be: R3.9K; R1 27K; R2 10K; R3 2.2K; C 0.1 μF. Circuit gives 8-bit accuracy. Design equations are presented in article.-A. Helfrick, Eight-Bit Frequency Source Suited for μP Control, EDN Magazine, Sept. 20, 1976, p 116 and118.   (View)

LOCKED_90°OUTPUTS

Published:2009/7/14 4:26:00 Author:May

Delivers two-phase (sine and cosine) outputs locked together. Frequency can be varied over wide range by altering bias current with 10K pot that produces common-mode output voltage in NE5596 multiplier IC driving 8038 ICs serving as VC0s. Triangular outputs of oscillators are fed to multiplier inputs for phase control. Lower-cost 566 VCO can be used if sinusoidal outputs are not needed. Phase error over tuning range is nominally zero, whereas with conventional phase locked loop circuitry the capture range may be exceeded or phase error can be large.-J. M. Worley, Two-Phase V.
