MAX038_HIGH_SPEED_FUNCTION_GENERATOR_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/13 21:07:00 Author:May | From:SeekIC

For enthusiasts who would like to experiment with this device for themselves, a simple circuit to get it up and running is shown. The only real problem with the MAX038 is inherent in its sheer speed. Maxim suggests careful layout on adouble-sided ground-plane PC board for best results. In practice, a single-sided PC board seems to work well, provided it has plenty of copper areas at ground potential, good decoupling, and guard tracks around signal paths carrying rectangularwaveforms, especially that from the sync output. The following component recommendations are offered:Resistors-0.6 W, 1-percent metal filmC1, C2, C3, and C5-ceramic diskC4 and C6-tantalum bead, 35 VCext-as required for frequency, between 47pF and 47μF, polyester or polystyrene
