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 ...

Function generators (FGs) are measurement instruments in the category of waveform sources. They grew out of both a need for a versatile source of multiple waveshapes and from some interesting analog ...

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 ...

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 ...

[Debraj] needed a simple signal generator for a project he was working on, but didn’t have one handy. He found that the easiest and cheapest way to get clean, reliable signaling was by using something ...

For a long time, I have thought that pulse generator outputs should not have adjustable amplitude and offset. Instead, they should have an adjustable top value and a separately adjustable bottom value ...
