The linearity of triangular waveforms makes triangular wave generators useful in many “sweep” circuits and test equipment. For example, switched-mode power supplies and induction motor-control ...

This article is part of the Ideas for Design Series: Vol. 3, No. 7. This simple, robust, and low-cost signal generator, based on the LM386 power amplifier IC, provides a trio of audio-band signals ...

Renewable energy continues to be a massive trend around the world. As methods for capturing wind, solar, and other forms of renewable energy have developed, the cost and efficiency of renewable energy ...

If these signals exhibit a simple, periodic waveform, such as with sine, square, or triangular waves, the generators are called function generators. They are often used to check the function of ...

A personal computer (PC) sound card can be the basis for a readily available signal generator for testing electronic circuits. The usefulness of these signal generators is limited, however, because ...
