Abstract

The variable frequency switchable oscillator consists of an inverting Schmitt trigger (1), whose output is fed back to its input via a potentiometer (3), while its input is earthed via a capacitor (2). The potentiometer is incorporated between the output of the Schmitt trigger and a permanent level. The potentiometer slider is coupled to the Schmitt trigger input. When the oscillator switches on the potentiometer is so positioned that the resistance between earth and slider is at a min so that the capacitor can be charged up to a specific OFF threshold of the Schmitt trigger via the feedback resistance between the Schmitt trigger output and the slider. USE/ADVANTAGE - For frequency generators etc, with simple design and improved operation.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen schaltbaren Oszillator nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a switchable oscillator the preamble of claim 1.

Ein derartiger schaltbarer Oszillator ist als Grundschaltung für Frequenzgeneratoren bekannt, wobei ein invertierender Schmitt- Trigger so beschaltet ist, daß sein Ausgangssignal verzögert auf den Eingang rückgeführt wird. Die Verzögerung geschieht durch ein RC-Glied, gebildet aus einem Widerstand, der in der Rück­ führung des Ausgangssignals des Schmitt-Triggers an dessen Eingang liegt, und aus einem Kondensator, der vom Eingang des Schmitt-Triggers gegen Masse geschaltet ist. Die Frequenz des Oszillators ist veränderbar, wenn der Widerstand des RC-Gliedes durch ein Potentiometer verstellt wird. AUS-schaltbar ist der bekannte Oszillator durch einen zusätzlichen Schalter, der den Eingang des Schmitt-Triggers auf einen Dauerpegel legt. Diese Art den Oszillator schaltbar zu machen, bringt zwei Nachteile. Zum einen erhöht der zusätzliche Schalter die Ausfallwahrscheinlichkeit des Oszillators, zum anderen benötigt man zum Ein- und Ausschalten ein eigenes Bedienelement, wodurch der Komfort vermindert wird.Such a switchable oscillator is the basic circuit for Frequency generators known, an inverting Schmitt Trigger is wired so that its output signal is delayed the entrance is returned. The delay happens through an RC element formed from a resistor in the back routing the output signal of the Schmitt trigger to the Input, and from a capacitor connected to the input of the Schmitt trigger is connected to ground. The frequency of the Oscillator is changeable when the resistance of the RC element is adjusted by a potentiometer. It can be switched OFF known oscillator by an additional switch that the Input of the Schmitt trigger to a continuous level. This kind Making the oscillator switchable has two disadvantages. To the one the additional switch increases the probability of failure of the oscillator, on the other hand you need to switch on and Turn off its own control, reducing comfort is reduced.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen einfachen schaltbaren Oszillator unter dem Gesichtspunkt der Verfügbarkeit und Komfortverbesserung zu realisieren. The invention has for its object a simple switchable oscillator from the point of view of availability and to improve comfort.  

Dies wird bei dem schaltbaren Oszillator durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 erreicht.This is the case with the switchable oscillator characterizing features of claim 1 achieved.

Der zusätzliche Schalter entfällt, wenn das Potentiometer, dessen Schleifer mit dem Eingang des Schmitt-Triggers verbunden ist, zwischen dem Ausgang des Schmitt-Triggers und einem Dauerpegel liegt. Dadurch entstehen zwei Widerstände, einer zwischen Schleifer und Masse und einer zwischen Schleifer und Schmitt-Trigger-Ausgang, deren Widerstandswerte sich bei Verstellen des Potentiometers gegenläufig verändern. Geht der Widerstand zwischen Schleifer und Masse gegen 0, wird dadurch die gleiche Funktion erfüllt wie bei einem geschlossenen zusätzlichen Schalter. Statt einer Frequenz liegt am Ausgang des Schmitt-Triggers ein Dauerpegel an, der Oszillator ist ausgeschaltet.The additional switch is omitted if the potentiometer whose Grinder is connected to the input of the Schmitt trigger, between the output of the Schmitt trigger and one Continuous level. This creates two resistors, one between grinder and mass and one between grinder and Schmitt trigger output whose resistance values are at Adjust the potentiometer in opposite directions. Does that go Resistance between grinder and ground towards 0 is thereby performs the same function as a closed one additional switch. Instead of a frequency lies at the output of the Schmitt triggers a continuous level, which is an oscillator switched off.

Somit kann mit nur einem Bedienelement, einem Potentiometer- Drehknopf sowohl die Frequenz des Oszillators eingestellt, als auch der Oszillator ausgeschaltet werden. Gleichzeitig werden durch den ersatzlosen Wegfall des Schalters Kosten reduziert.Thus, with just one control element, a potentiometer Rotary knob both set the frequency of the oscillator as also the oscillator can be switched off. Be at the same time costs are reduced due to the replacement of the switch without replacement.

In der Zeichnung ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung dargestellt.In the drawing is an embodiment of the invention shown.

Diese zeigt einen invertierenden Schmitt-Trigger 1. An seinem Eingang ist ein Kondensator 2 angeschlossen, der mit Masse verbunden ist. Außerdem ist der Eingang des Schmitt-Triggers 1 mit dem Schleifer des Potentiometers 3 verschaltet. Der eine der beiden anderen Anschlüsse des Potentiometers 3 ist mit dem Ausgang des Schmitt-Triggers 1, der andere mit Masse verbunden. This shows an inverting Schmitt trigger 1 . A capacitor 2 is connected to its input and is connected to ground. In addition, the input of the Schmitt trigger 1 is connected to the wiper of the potentiometer 3 . One of the other two connections of the potentiometer 3 is connected to the output of the Schmitt trigger 1 , the other to ground.

Ist der Oszillator ausgeschaltet, d. h. liegt am Ausgang des Schmitt-Triggers 1 ein Dauerpegel an, befindet sich das Potentiometer 3 in einer Stellung, in der der Widerstand zwischen Schleifer und Masse gegen 0 geht. In dieser Stellung wird der Eingang des Schmitt-Triggers 1 gegen Masse kurzgeschlossen, der Kondensator 2 kann sich nicht aufladen. Damit bleibt die Eingangsspannung des Schmitt-Triggers 1 auf 0 Volt, wodurch die Ausgangsspannung konstant auf einem High-Pegel verharrt.If the oscillator is switched off, ie if there is a continuous level at the output of the Schmitt trigger 1 , the potentiometer 3 is in a position in which the resistance between the grinder and ground goes to zero. In this position, the input of the Schmitt trigger 1 is short-circuited to ground, the capacitor 2 cannot charge. The input voltage of the Schmitt trigger 1 thus remains at 0 volts, as a result of which the output voltage remains constant at a high level.

Beim Einschalten des Oszillators wird das Potentiometer 3 in eine Stellung gebracht, in der der Widerstand zwischen Masse und Schleifer minimal so groß ist, daß sich der Kondensator 2 über den rückführenden Widerstand zwischen dem Ausgang des Schmitt-Triggers 1 und dem Schleifer bis zur spezifischen Ausschalt-Schwelle des Schmitt-Triggers 1 aufladen kann. Ist die Ausschaltschwelle erreicht, liegt am Ausgang des Schmitt-Triggers ein Low-Pegel an. Daraufhin entlädt sich der Kondensator 2 über den rückführenden Widerstand solange, bis die Eingangsspannung die Einschaltschwelle des Schmitt-Triggers 1 erreicht hat.When the oscillator is switched on, the potentiometer 3 is brought into a position in which the resistance between the ground and the slider is minimally large enough that the capacitor 2 extends over the returning resistance between the output of the Schmitt trigger 1 and the slider until the specific switch-off -Schmitt trigger 1 threshold can be charged. When the switch-off threshold is reached, there is a low level at the output of the Schmitt trigger. Thereupon, the capacitor 2 discharges through the feedback resistor until the input voltage has reached the switch-on threshold of the Schmitt trigger 1 .

Die Auf- und Entladezeit des Kondensators 2 während dieses Zyklusses ist indirekt proportional zur Frequenz des Oszillators. Sie wird über den Wert des rückführenden Widerstandes und den Kondensator 2 bestimmt. Die Minimalfrequenz ist durch den Wert des rückführenden Widerstandes gegeben, der sich aus der Potentiometerstellung ergibt, wenn der Widerstand zwischen Schleifer und Masse gerade eine Aufladung des Kondensators 2 zuläßt.The charging and discharging time of the capacitor 2 during this cycle is indirectly proportional to the frequency of the oscillator. It is determined via the value of the feedback resistor and the capacitor 2 . The minimum frequency is given by the value of the returning resistance, which results from the potentiometer position when the resistance between the wiper and ground just allows the capacitor 2 to be charged.
