Frequency to Voltage

The circuit in Figure 1 is a simple, low-cost voltage-to-time converter using the ubiquitous 555 timer chip. You can use the IC's monostable multivibrator as a voltage-to-time converter by connecting the analog-voltage input to the charging resistor, R, instead of connecting R to VCC. With this modification, the timer chip's output-timing cycle, tP, is proportional to the input voltage, VIN.

The AD650 is a versatile monolithic voltage-tofrequency
converter (VFC) that utilizes a chargebalanced
architecture to obtain high performance in
many applications. Like other charge-balanced VFCs,
the AD650 can be used in a reverse mode as a
frequency-to-voltage (F/V) converter. This application
note discusses the F/V architecture and operation,
component selection, a design example, and the
fundamental trade-off between output ripple and circuit
response time.

The circuit in Figure 1 converts pulse information to a clean dc voltage by the end of a single incoming pulse. In another technique, an RC filter can convert a PWM signal to an averaged dc voltage, but this method is slow in responding. Converting low-duty-cycle pulse information is slower yet. The circuit in Figure 1 uses two low-input-bias-current LT1880 op amps, IC2 and IC3, and an LTC202 quad analog switch,

This circuit is designed to detect the narrow 1uS pulses produced by the above amplifier circuit. The clean logic type pulses produced by the discriminator are then sent to a frequency to voltage converter. The circuit is designed to process a pulse frequency of 10KHz that is frequency modulated by voice audio signals.

Simplify your F/V converter designs with versatile V/F ICs.
Starting with a basic converter circuit, you can modify it to
meet almost any application requirement. You can spare
yourself some hard labor when designing frequency-tovoltage
(F/V) converters by using a voltage-to-frequency IC
in your designs. These ICs form the basis of a series of
accurate, yet economical, F/V converters suiting a variety of
applications.

This PLL can operate over a wide frequency range, not just
1 or 2 octaves but over 1 or 2 or 3 decades. It naturally
provides a voltage output which responds quickly to frequency
changes, yet does not have any inherent ripple.
Thus, it can be used as a frequency-to-voltage (F-to-V)
converter

The improved circuit in Figure 2 makes an end-run around
these compromises. A low-cost sample-and-hold circuit
such as LF398 can sample the F-to-V's output at the peak
of its ripple, and hold it until the next cycle. The LF398 has
fairly low output ripple (rms) but it does have some short
duration noise spikes and glitches which can be removed
easily with a simple output filter.

This Design Idea shows how you can use a frequency-to-voltage converter and a DDS (direct-digital-synthesizer) chip for precise digital-to-analog conversion. The DDS chip generates a precision frequency proportional to its digital input. This frequency serves as the input to a voltage-to-frequency converter, thereby generating an 18-bit analog voltage proportional to the original digital input. Figure 1 shows how the AD650 is configured for frequency-to-voltage conversion.

The high-accuracy frequency-to-voltage converter (FVC) in Fig 1 demonstrates how a synchronous, charge-balance, voltage-to-frequency converter (VFC) can function as a single-supply FVC given proper biasing and level shifting. This FVC can maintain a monotonic 0.01% linearity error over a 60-dB range of 9.7 kHz to 9.7 MHz; it operates from 12 to 36V power supplies. You can modify the circuit’s prescaler to adapt the circuit to considerably higher frequency ranges.

Frequency to voltage converters are available in a number
of forms from a number of sources, but invariably require
significant additional components before they can be put to
use in a given situation. The LM2907, LM2917 series of
devices was developed to overcome these objections. Both
input and output interface circuitry is included on chip so
that a minimum number of additional components is required
to complete the function.
