Using the CMOS IC 4046 we found this VCO in the November 1984 Radio Electronics magazine. The center frequency is given by the capacitor. The maximum frequency is around a few megahertz.
In the figure we have the way to use a stepper motor as an encoder. Operational amplifiers can be of...
Placed inside the refrigerator, this circuit triggers an oscillator when the part is opened...
We found this circuit in an old documentation from the 70s, but it can be assembled with more...
