Tachometer circuit

Description. Here is a simple circuit that can be used as a tachometer. The circuit is basically a frequency to current converter which converts the incoming signal into a proportional current to drive the meter. The deflection on the ammeter will be proportional to the frequency of the incoming signal. For using this circuit as […]

FSK Demodulator

PLL Application – FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) Demodulator FSK demodulator  using NE-SE 565 IC A very useful application of the 565 PLL is as a FSK demodulator. In the 565 PLL the frequency shift is usually accomplished by driving a VCO with the binary data signal so that the two resulting frequencies corre­spond to the

Frequency Demodulation

PLL Application – Frequency Demodulation Using NE-SE 565 IC Frequency demodulation or detection can be obtained directly by using the PLL circuit. When the centre frequency of the PLL is selected or designed at the FM carrier frequency, the filtered or output voltage in the circuit shown in figure, is obviously the desired demodulated voltage,

Frequency Multiplication

PLL Applications 1. Frequency Multiplication or Frequency Synthesis The block diagram of a frequency muliplier (or synthesizer) is shown in figure. In this circuit, a frequency divider is inserted between the output of the VCO and the phase comparator (PC) so that the loop signal to the PC is at frequency fOUT while the output

PLL Operation

How a PLL works ? Consider VCO operating without input signal at free-running frequency fr and input signal of frequency fIN increasing from zero is applied to the PC. If the input frequency is less than fIN1, then the error voltage Ve is zero as illustrated in figure and VCO operates at a frequency fr.
