Abstract

1,065,907. Digital-to-analogue converters. TELEFUNKEN PATENTVERWERTUNGS G.m.b.H. Dec. 17, 1965 [Dec. 19. 1964], No. 53667/65. Heading G4H. A tuning arrangement for a voltage tunable circuit comprises a digital counter (Fig. 4, not shown) which makes a count representing the frequency of the oscillator (1), and means (6a-6e) for converting each decade value to an analogue form for comparison with a similar signal representing the desired frequency, the comparator outputs (5a, 5o<SP>1</SP>-5e, 5e<SP>1</SP>) causing resistors to be switched into the charging circuits of capacitor 3 to control the frequency of the oscillator. The desired frequency is stored in digital storage units (9a-9e) and converted (8a-8e) to an analogue comparison signal. The arrangement is such that an error output on one of the comparators operates a high or low switch (So, Sa<SP>1</SP> &c.) the effect of which is to change the frequency to remove -the error.
