In Boost and modify square waves, we covered several methods for conditioning square waves for use with digital signals. In this final installment, we look at 555 timers, voltage regulators, op amps, ...

Fig 1. This basic VCO/waveform generator IC circuit includes a voltage follower loop (formed with IC1) and symmetry feedback loop (IC3) to eliminate an asymmetric duty cycle, which would cause ...

Editor's note: This article is the first of two parts. If you spend any time on a test bench, you probably use square waves to test components, subsystems, and systems. You can get square waves from ...
