Developed for use with amateur 2-meter radios, to give direct choice of frequency by setting thumbwheel or lever switches. Phase.locked loop gives precise high-purity output. Input frequency to system is 4.5511 111-MHz reference signal from CD4060 crystal oscillator. Digital edge-triggered Hughes HCTR320 phase comparator maintains inputs of both frequency and phase coherence at lock; lock range is thus capture range, making locking on harmonics impossible. Article describes operation of circuit in detail, and gives construction details as well as circuit for keyboard entry system. Power supply is 723 precision regulator giving 7.15V.._M. I.

Single CMOS flip-flop generates approximately constant low-frequency signal from variable high-frequency signal. RC network in feedback loop determines output frequency, which is independent of rate at which flip-flop is clocked if output frequency is lowerthan dock frequency. If clock frequency is lower, output transitions occur at half of clock frequency. Provides two outputs, approxi-mately equal in duty cycle but opposite in phase. Circuit was developed to blink lamp at 1 Hz to indicate presence of active digital signal having variable duty cycle in range of 100 to 3000 Hz.-V. L.

A dual optocoupler is used in a configuration which has the same current throughout as the LEDs. Assuming similar optocoupler features the output voltage must be equal to the noninverting input voltage. Since the op amp is within a closed loop the output voltage becomes equal to the input voltage. RC and C perform as a compensation network to prevent oscillations. (View)
