Description
This voltage to frequency converter provides the output
pulse train at a frequency precisely proportional to the
applied input voltage. The KA331 can operate at power
supplies as low as 4.0V and be changed output frequency
from 1Hz to 100KHz. It is ideally suited for use in simple
low-cost circui t fo r anal og-to digi tal conver sio n, long ter m
integration, linear frequency modulation or demodulation,
frequency-to-voltage conversion, and many other functions.
