The 555 timer circuit is configured as a 10-kHz astable multivibrator that feeds this signal to the 4046 phase-locked-loop IC. The signal that is fed from this chip is then coupled to a divide-by-N counter. This counter will take the 10-kHz signal locked on by the 4046 and will produce multiples of the fundamental frequency(10 kHz). Therefore, it is possible to generate frequencies as high as 100 kHz with this circuit. When building this circuit, remember to use safety precautions when handling CMOS chips. (View)

Two quad TTL packages form simple circuit that generates output pulse at C as function of either leading or trailing edge of input pulse at A, depending on logic level at terminal D. Additional output at E supplies pulses coinciding with both leading and trailing edges of input, independently of logic level at D. Maximum input frequency is 10 MHz, and edge pulses are about 35 ns wide. IC1 is quad two-input EXCLUSIVE-OR gate, and IC2 is quad two-input NAND gate.-C. F. Reeves, A Programmable Pulse-Edge Selector, EDN Magazine, April 20, 1973, p 85 and 87. (View)

Circuit generates log ratio of currents Ic1, and Ic2, with accuracy within 3% from 10 nA to 1 mA (100dB range) when Ic2 is fixed at 10-μA reference value. Accuracy increases to 1% for current inputs between 40 nA and 400 μA (80 dB). A2 supplies constant reference current to Q2.Q1 is operated as transdiode withQ2 providing temperature compensation of offset voltage.-W. G. Jung, IC Op-Amp Cookbook, Howard W.

Developed for applications requiring that gated oscillator must always complete its timing cycle. Circuit uses only two NAND gates and two diodes, none of which are critical as to type. With no input at A, oscillator output B is low. When A is driven high, D goes low initially and drives output B high. If input at A is removed, regenerative feedback is applied from B through diode D2 to C until normal timing cycle is finished. Then, with B low, D becomes high and keeps output B low.-L. P. Kahhan, Gated Oscillator Completes Last Cycle, EDN Magazine, Jan. 5, 1977, p 43. (View)
