The first-generation integrator-hysteresis-switch FGs were replaced by a second-generation design scheme using current sources. The integrator-based FG loop can be improved by driving the integrating ...

Commercial curve tracers have existed for decades. But designers without access to one can create a simple circuit that uses a function generator and oscilloscope to generate JFET transfer and ...

Simple triangle-wave generators have a weakness in that the waveform of their output signal normally cannot be modified. The circuit presented here makes it possible to smoothly alter the waveform of ...

If you have a modern function generator on your bench it is quite likely to contain a direct-digital synthesis circuit that creates arbitrary waveforms using a microprocessor controlled DAC. If you ...

We needed a handheld, battery-powered signal generator with a sine-wave output that was continuously adjustable from 100 Hz to 10 kHz. For such a wide frequency range, we selected a function-generator ...
