I'm trying to build a function generator with a few limitations just for fun but I'm having a difficult time finding the right components. I built a function generator from this website:
http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=9002
which was very easy to build but now I want to modify some things in it. On the website it says that it needs atleast 14V or so volts to run but I am pretty sure there are ways to power this device with less than 9 volts but I'm stuck and have no idea how to do so other than unsoddering some of the components and putting some new components in. If possible I would like to maintain an amplitude of 500 mA. Any help would be great Thank you.
