DESCRIPTION
The VFC121 is a monolithic voltage-to-frequency
converter consisting of an integrating amplifier, volt-
age reference, and one-shot charge pump circuitry.
High-frequency complementary NPN/PNP circuitry is
used to implement the charge-balance technique,
achieving speed and accuracy far superior to previous
single power supply VFCs.
The high-impedance input accepts signals from ground
potential to V
S
鈥?2.5V. Power supplies from 4.5V to
36V may be used. A 2.6V reference voltage output
may be used to excite sensors or bias external cir-
cuitry. A thermometer output voltage proportional to
absolute temperature (擄K) may be used as a tempera-
ture sensor or for temperature compensation of appli-
cations circuits.
Frequency output is an open-collector transistor. A
disable pin forces the output to the high impedance
state, allowing multiple VFCs to share a common
transmission path.
