Figure 9-40 shows a DAC1230 connected to provide digital control of a 1-A current sink. Such a circgit can be used for heater control, stepper-motor torque compensation, and automatic test equipment. The largest source of nonlinearity in this circuit is the stability of the current-sensing resistance (with changes in power dissipation). The sensing resistance should be kept as low as possible to minimize this effect. The reference voltage must be reduced (to -1 V, as shown) to maintain the output-current range. The triple Darlington is used to minimize the base-current flowing through the sensing resistance, while simultaneously maintaining the collector current flow to the load.

U1A and U1C of RCA CA3046 transistor array form emitter-coupled oscillator. Portion of U1A current is diverted through U1B and L1, producing magnetic flux that reduces effective inductance of resonating coil L2. Output frequency is varied in direct pro portion to voltage applied at A. L1 is 23 turns on 3/4-inch Teflon form 2 inches long, with 4 turns wound between windings for L2. VR1 is 1N3828 6.2-V zener. Circuit must be well grounded and shielded to avoid hum pickup by input, which could modulate output.-D. G. Stephenson, A Second Look at Linear Tuning, OST, March 1977, p 40-41. (View)

Motorola MC1553 video amplifier provides wide band-width and output swing capability needed for high-frequency master clock or local oscillator in many system designs. Positive feedback is injected through crystal to input pin 1. Output is taken from pin 7 which is buffered internally from oscillator by gain and emitter-follower stages. Brute-force pi filter at output extracts desired fundamental frequency.- A Wide Band Monolithic Video Amplifier, Motorola, Phoenix, AZ, 1973, AN-404 , p 9. (View)

Uses 2.235-MHz crystal with counter chip to produce 136.5-Hz subaudible tone for amateur transmitter. Low-frequency square-wave output of IC is put through multistage low-pass filter to develop sine wave. Tone should be introduced into transmitter just after audio processing (after deviation control). AIternate filter is also shown; use whichever gives best performance, For other tone frequency, use crystal that is 16,384 times frequency desired.-E. Gellender and M.

Output of amplifier is connected to apex of Wien bridge. Positive feedback is taken from junction of C1A and C1B for noninverting input of first opamp, while negative feedback is taken from other junction of bridge for inverting input. Oscillation is sustained when R2 = 2r. Nonlinearity of lamp r provides stabilization of oscillator. Frequency depends on values used for bridge components.-H. D.
