Semiconductors are the essential component fueling the growth of industries such as automotive, renewable energy, communications, information technology, defense, and consumer electronics. The rise of ...

The circuit is a triangle waveform generator that uses as few parts as possible. A 555 timer IC, 2 resistors and two capacitors make the triangle wave. The IC is connected in a 50% duty-cycle astable ...

Fig 1. This basic VCO/waveform generator IC circuit includes a voltage follower loop (formed with IC1) and symmetry feedback loop (IC3) to eliminate an asymmetric duty cycle, which would cause ...

This article is part of the Ideas for Design Series: Vol. 3, No. 7. This simple, robust, and low-cost signal generator, based on the LM386 power amplifier IC, provides a trio of audio-band signals ...
