This project originated from the need to produce a linear crystal-controlled ramp signal for an HP 8620C RF sweep oscillator. It is inspired by a previously published ramp generator design [1]. That ...
Unijunction transistors (UJTs) were common circuit elements several decades ago. A simple ramp generator could be built from a single UJT and a few other components (Fig. 1). 1. In a simple UJT-based ...
It’s not always easy to design a ramp generator whose ramping frequency can be changed without manipulation of capacitors or inductors. Many ramp circuit designs are available, but they may not be ...
