Hello,
I've been looking into switched capacitor such as the LTC1043 and the VCO in the datasheet has grabbed my attention so I've been trying to analyze but can't seem to figure out how it works.
So here's my current understanding of the circuit:
-When the Op Amp hits negative rail the 330K charges the 1uF capacitor until the pnp transistor turns on...
-I see positive feedback but never have I seen with capacitor by itself, maybe a filter...
-I believe that the 2.5V zener triggers the capacitor switch when reached..
This what I could figure out any help is great if anyone has used the LTC1043 help would be appreciated.
Thanks
