Function Generator Circuit

The document describes a function generator circuit using the ICL8038 chip that is capable of producing sine, square, and triangular waveforms simultaneously. The circuit allows the user to control the frequency from 20Hz to 20kHz using a 100k logarithmic potentiometer. A 1k potentiometer can adjust the duty cycle and a 100k potentiometer controls the distortion of the waveforms. The circuit requires a dual power supply of +15V to -15V to operate the ICL8038 chip.

Function Generator Circuit

Description.
The ICL8038 is a function generator chip, capable of generating triangular, square , sine, pulse and sawtooth waveforms . From these sine, square & triangular wave forms can be made simultaneously.There is an option to control the parameters like frequency,duty cycle and distortion of these functions.This is the best function generator circuit for a beginner to start with and is of course a must on the work bench of an electronics hobbyist.The circuit here is designed to produce waveforms from 20Hz to 20 kHz.The ICL 8038 has to be operated from a dual power supply.

Notes .

The circuit needs a dual power supply. A +15 -15 power supply as shown in the circuit is enough for the purpose. The frequency of the output wave form can be adjusted using R7.It must be a 100K Log POT.

The duty cycle can be adjusted using R3 , a 1K POT. The distortion of the wave form can be adjusted using R5 , a 100K POT. Square,triangle & sine waveforms can be obtained simultaneously at pins 9,3,2 respectively.
