Abstract

A triangular/square-wave generator with current-controllable frequency and amplitude is presented. The generator utilizes operational transconductance amplifiers as switching elements. A prototype circuit built with commercially available components exhibits less than 2% nonlinearity in its current-to-frequency transfer characteristic from 1 to 10 kHz and -150 ppm//spl deg/C temperature coefficient of frequency over 15/spl deg/C to 35/spl deg/C. The circuit also displays wide sweep capability and good linearity of current to amplitude. The application of the circuit to a current-controllable saw-tooth waveform generator is also presented.
