Abstract

A voltage-to-frequency converter comprising a triwave generator responsive to an input signal to produce an output triangular signal the frequency of which corresponds to the magnitude of the input signal, and a voltage-slope-to-periodic-function (VSTPF) generator which receives the output of the triwave generator and produces a pulsed output signal having a frequency which is a multiple of that of the triwave generator.
