Hi all !
This is my circuit :
With the given configuration,I should have about 0.080 V of 950Hz AC (~50% duty cycle) at the output
However,I get almost 2Volts of 1900Hz AC at 96% duty cycle at the output.
Moreover,the inverting terminal should be nearly at ground.But I read 2.4 Volts Ac at that point (~50% duty cycle).
Also, another strange thing is that as I INCREASE the feedback resistance,the output voltage DECREASES.
However ,this circuit operates correctly when the resistances involved are higher. For instance,if Rf=5k and R1=10k then I do read 4V ac at output (950Hz @ 50% duty cycle) and the inverting terminal is nearly at ground too.
From my limited knowledge of analog circuits,I infer that the problem might be due to inadvertently occurring oscillations (since the output frequency doubles and duty cycle too almost doubles).
Please advice me on this ! What could be the cause? And a possible solution ?
Thank you so much :smile:
