Voltage Controlled Oscillator 1.2GHz

Published:2012/9/17 21:38:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Voltage Controlled Oscillator, 1.2GHz


Since high frequency voltage-controlled oscillators, or VCOs, are not easy to construct, Maxim (www.maxim-ic.com) has produced an integrated 1.2GHz oscillator, the MAX2754. The center frequency is set using the TUNE input, and a linear modulation input allows the frequency to be modulated. The IC is available in an 8-pin μMAX package, operates from a supply of between 2.7 V and 5.5 V, and draws a current of less than 2 mA. Both TUNE and MOD operate over control voltage range of +0.4 V to +2.4 V. TUNE allows the VCO frequency to be adjusted from 1050 MHz to 1270 MHz.   (View)

Astable/Monostable oscillator using  555 IC
The 555 is a highly stable device for generating accurate time delays or oscillation. Aditional terminals are provided for triggering or resetting if desired. In the time delay (monostable) modeof operation the time is precisely controlled by one extrernal resistor and one capacitor. For stable operation as an oscillator, the free running frequency and the duty cycle are both accurately controlled with two external resistors and one capacitor.   (View)

The following schematic diagram shows the design of a 100 MHz Radio Frequency RF Oscillator Circuit. The electrets microphone picks up and amplifies sound then fed it into the audio amplifier stage built around the first transistor. The output from the collector is fed into the base of the second transistor where it modulates the resonant frequency of the tank circuit (the 5 turn coil and the trim cap) by varying the junction capacitance of the transistor.   (View)

CMOS INVERTER PARALLEL LC OSCILLATOR
I have used this parallel resonant LC oscillator circuit countless times. The oscillator frequency is determined by the inductor and capacitor values. I have shown an adjustable inductor to make it easy to set the frequency to a specific value. Once set the frequency is fairly stable over supply voltage variations and temperature changes. The values shown are for 125KHz but the frequency can range from tens of kilohertz to tens of megahertz. With a 74HCU04 type inverter, it will oscillate down to about 1.5 volts. If the frequency is low, you can also use a 74C04 (CD4069) inverter. Source: discovercircuits   (View)

Ultra Low Current Oscillator (February 17, 2009)
Here is a challenge. Design an astable oscillator which draws only a few nanoamps of current from a +3v supply. I gave this some thought and came up with the circuit below. I used some pretty standard parts except for three surface mounted 1000M resistors I had on hand. The oscillator frequency measured a low 1Hz frequency and the average current was a very low 3 nanoamps. If I had some higher resistors values handy, I think I could have gotten the current down below one nanoamp. Source: discovercircuits   (View)
