#97 Simple function (signal, waveform) generator

XR2206 Function Generator Project - Build a cheap, simple function (signal, waveform) generator. This is not a sponsored project nor did I get the product for free! See video #97 at Here's an uber simple project for generating square waves, sine waves and triangle waves, ideal for general electronics use and for use in Arduino projects too. A simple project like this is also ideal for electronics beginners, with limited soldering skills. This description (and ALL links) is repeated here: https://github.com/RalphBacon/XR2206-Function-Generator-Project -------------------------------------- LINKS LINKS LINKS -------------------------------------- The function (signal) generator kit, here is a link to Amazon but widely available from the Far Eastern Warehouses too, even cheaper there, but slower delivery of course https://www.amazon.co.uk/KKmoon-Precision-Generator-Adjustable-Frequency/dp/B01HMBFSPQ/ref=sr_1_1 CD4093 Quad Dual Input NAND Gate used in the demo as Schmitt trigger http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/cd4093b-mil.pdf CD4093 for demo purposes is OK but better would be to use a Hex (Six) Single Input Texas Instruments SN74HC14 http://www.ti.com/lit/an/scea046/scea046.pdf (see page 3 for the debounce circuit) (see page 4 for pretty much what I described on converting wave forms) We'll discuss these ICs in more detail next time we look at this topic. Here you can read up a bit more about NAND gates https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAND_logic Small soldering iron ideal for projects like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Watt-C15-soldering-iron-Antex/dp/B0118KBD4M/ref=sr_1_13 The XR2206 function generator data sheet. This product has now been retired after 4 decades! https://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Kits/XR2206_104_020808.pdf A wave generator using an Arduino Due https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/DueSimpleWaveformGenerator A cheap source of Arduino Due (other sites also stock it) https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20171022053523&SearchText=arduino+due The video from KainkaLabs who suggests several changes to the design https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/02XtneCHnDA If you like this video please give it a thumbs up, share it and if you're not already subscribed please do so :) My channel is here: ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ How can I remember this?
