A saw-tooth waveform generator with current-controllable frequency is described. The generator utilizes operational transconductance amplifiers as switching element. It features simple and wide sweep capability. The circuit built with commercially avaliable components exhibits good linearity of current to frequency and relatively low temperature sensitivity.

A saw-tooth waveform generator whose frequency can be controlled with a do bias current is proposed. The generator utilizes operational transconductance amplifiers (OTA's) as switching element. It features simple and wide sweep capability The circuit built with commercially avaliable components exhibits good linearity of current-to-frequency transfer characteristics and relatively low temperature sensitivity.
