CEM 3340/3345 Voltage Controlled Oscillator The CEM 3340 and CEM 3345 are completely self contained, precision voltage controlled ‘oscillators, featuring both ex- ponential and linear control scales and up to four buffered ‘output waveforms: triangle, sawtooth, square, and pulse with voltage controllable pulse width. Full temperature compensation makes these VCOs extremely stable, and eliminates the need for a temperature compensation resistor. The highly accurate exponential and linear control inputs are virtual ground summing nodes, allowing mul- CEM 3340 Circuit Block and Connection Diagram tiple control voltages to be mixed within the device itself. ‘Also included is provision for hard and soft synchronization of the frequency, and an output for easy adjustment of high fre- ‘quency tracking. Special care in ‘the design ensures oscillation start-up under any power-on sequence and supply conditions. ‘Although a low voltage process has been used to reduce die size, cost, and leakage cur- rents, an on-chip 6.5 volt zener diode allows the device to operate off 16 volt supplies, as well as +16,-5 volt supplies. | tures Large Sweep Range 0,000:1 min.
