General Description:
The TC9400/TC9401/TC9402 are low-cost Voltage-toFrequency (V/F) converters, utilizing low-power CMOS technology. The converters accept a variable analog input signal and generate an output pulse train, whose frequency is linearly proportional to the input voltage. The devices can also be used as highly accurate Frequency-to-Voltage (F/V) converters, accepting virtually any input frequency waveform and providing a linearly proportional voltage output. A complete V/F or F/V system only requires the addition of two capacitors, three resistors, and reference voltage.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Voltage-to-Frequency (V/F) Circuit Description
The TC9400 V/F converter operates on the principal of charge balancing. The operation of the TC9400 is easily understood by referring to Figure 3-1. The input voltage (VIN) is converted to a current (IIN) by the input resistor. This current is then converted to a charge on the integrating capacitor and shows up as a linearly decreasing voltage at the output of the op amp. The lower limit of the output swing is set by the threshold detector, which causes the reference voltage to be applied to the reference capacitor for a time period long enough to charge the capacitor to the reference voltage. This action reduces the charge on the integrating capacitor by a fixed amount (q = CREF x VREF), causing the op amp output to step up a finite amount. At the end of the charging period, CREF is shorted out. This dissipates the charge stored on the reference capacitor, so that when the output again crosses zero, the system is ready to recycle. In this manner, the continued discharging of the integrating capacitor by the input is balanced out by fixed charges from the refer-
ence voltage. As the input voltage is increased, the number of reference pulses required to maintain balance increases, which causes the output frequency to also increase. Since each charge increment is fixed, the increase in frequency with voltage is linear. In addition, the accuracy of the output pulse width does not directly affect the linearity of the V/F. The pulse must simply be long enough for full charge transfer to take place. The TC9400 contains a "self-start" circuit to ensure the V/F converter always operates properly when power is first applied. In the event that, during power-on, the op amp output is below the threshold and CREF is already charged, a positive voltage step will not occur. The op amp output will continue to decrease until it crosses the -3.0V threshold of the "self-start" comparator. When this happens, an internal resistor is connected to the op amp input, which forces the output to go positive until the TC9400 is in its normal Operating mode. The TC9400 utilizes low-power CMOS processing for low input bias and offset currents, with very low power dissipation. The open drain N-channel output FETs provide high voltage and high current sink capability.

3.2 Voltage-to-Time Measurements
The TC9400 output can be measured in the time domain as well as the frequency domain. Some microcomputers, for example, have extensive timing capability, but limited counter capability. Also, the response time of a time domain measurement is only the period between two output pulses, while the frequency measurement must accumulate pulses during the entire counter time-base period. Time measurements can be made from either the TC9400's PULSE FREQ OUT output, or from the FREQ/2 OUT output. The FREQ/2 OUT output changes state on the rising edge of PULSE FREQ OUT, so FREQ/2 OUT is a symmetrical square wave at one-half the pulse output frequency. Timing measurements can, therefore, be made between successive PULSE FREQ OUT pulses, or while FREQ/2 OUT is high (or low).

PIN FUNCTIONS
Threshold Detector Input
4.2
Pulse Freq Out
In the V/F mode, this input is connected to the AMPLIFIER OUT output (Pin 12) and triggers a 3sec pulse when the input voltage passes through its threshold. In the F/V mode, the input frequency is applied to this input. The nominal threshold of the detector is half way between the power supplies, or (VDD + VSS)/2 400 mV. The TC9400's charge balancing V/F technique is not dependent on a precision comparator threshold, because the threshold only sets the lower limit of the op amp output. The op amp's peak-to-peak output swing, which determines the frequency, is only influenced by external capacitors and by VREF.
3msec Typ.
This output is an open drain N-channel FET, which provides a pulse waveform whose frequency is proportional to the input voltage. This output requires a pullup resistor and interfaces directly with MOS, CMOS, and TTL logic (see Figure 4-1).
4.3
Freq/2 Out
This output is an open drain N-channel FET, which provides a square wave one-half the frequency of the pulse frequency output. The FREQ/2 OUT output will change state on the rising edge of PULSE FREQ OUT. This output requires a pull-up resistor and interfaces directly with MOS, CMOS, and TTL logic.

1/f CREF CINT
VREF Amp Out 0V
Notes: 1. To adjust FMIN, set VIN = 10 mV and adjust the 50 kW offset for 10 Hz output. 2. To adjust FMAX, set VIN = 10V and adjust RIN or VREF for 10 kHz output. 3. To increase FOUTMAX to 100 kHz, change CREF to 2pF and CINT to 75 pF. 4. For high performance applications, use high stability components for RIN, CREF, VREF (metal film resistors and glass capacitors). Also, separate output ground (Pin 9) from input ground (Pin 6).

Amplifier Out
The sources of both the FREQ/2 OUT and the PULSE FREQ OUT are connected to this pin. An output level swing from the drain voltage to ground, or to the VSS supply, may be obtained by connecting this pin to the appropriate point.
This pin is the output stage of the operational amplifier. During V/F operation, a negative going ramp signal is available at this pin. In the F/V mode, a voltage proportional to the frequency input is generated.
4.7 4.5 RBIAS
An external resistor, connected to VSS, sets the bias point for the TC9400. Specifications for the TC9400 are based on RBIAS = 100 k 10%, unless otherwise noted. Increasing the maximum frequency of the TC9400 beyond 100 kHz is limited by the pulse width of the pulse output (typically 3sec). Reducing RBIAS will decrease the pulse width and increase the maximum operating frequency, but linearity errors will also increase. RBIAS can be reduced to 20 k, which will typically produce a maximum full scale frequency of 500 kHz.
Zero Adjust
This pin is the non-inverting input of the operational amplifier. The low frequency set point is determined by adjusting the voltage at this pin.
4.8
IIN
The inverting input of the operational amplifier and the summing junction when connected in the V/F mode. An input current of 10 A is specified, but an over range current up to 50 A can be used without detrimental effect to the circuit operation. IIN connects the summing junction of an operational amplifier. Voltage sources cannot be attached directly, but must be buffered by external resistors.

4.9 VREF
5.0
A reference voltage from either a precision source, or the VSS supply is applied to this pin. Accuracy of the TC9400 is dependent on the voltage regulation and temperature characteristics of the reference circuitry. Since the TC9400 is a charge balancing V/F converter, the reference current will be equal to the input current. For this reason, the DC impedance of the reference voltage source must be kept low enough to prevent linearity errors. For linearity of 0.01%, a reference impedance of 200W or less is recommended. A 0.1 F bypass capacitor should be connected from VREF to ground.
VOLTAGE-TO-FREQUENCY (V/F) CONVERTER DESIGN INFORMATION
Input/Output Relationships

The output frequency (FOUT) is related to the analog input voltage (VIN) by the transfer equation:

5.2.1
External Component Selection
RIN
The charging current for CREF is supplied through this pin. When the op amp output reaches the threshold level, this pin is internally connected to the reference voltage and a charge, equal to VREF x CREF, is removed from the integrator capacitor. After about 3sec, this pin is internally connected to the summing junction of the op amp to discharge CREF. Break-before-make switching ensures that the reference voltage is not directly applied to the summing junction.
The value of this component is chosen to give a full scale input current of approximately 10 A:
EQUATION 5-2:
RIN VIN FULLSCALE 10 A
EQUATION 5-3:
RIN 10V = 1 M 10 A
Note that the value is an approximation and the exact relationship is defined by the transfer equation. In practice, the value of RIN typically would be trimmed to obtain full scale frequency at VIN full scale (see Section 5.3 "Adjustment Procedure", Adjustment Procedure). Metal film resistors with 1% tolerance or better are recommended for high accuracy applications because of their thermal stability and low noise generation.
5.2.2
CINT
The exact value is not critical but is related to CREF by the relationship: 3CREF CINT 10CREF Improved stability and linearity are obtained when CINT 4CREF. Low leakage types are recommended, although mica and ceramic devices can be used in applications where their temperature limits are not exceeded. Locate as close as possible to Pins 12 and 13.

Adjustment Procedure
The exact value is not critical and may be used to trim the full scale frequency (see Section 7.1 "Input/Output Relationships", Input/Output Relationships). Glass film or air trimmer capacitors are recommended because of their stability and low leakage. Locate as close as possible to Pins 5 and 3 (see Figure ).
500 400 VDD = +5V VSS = -5V RIN = 1MW VIN = +10V TA = +25C 10 kHz
Figure 3-1 shows a circuit for trimming the zero location. Full scale may be trimmed by adjusting RIN, VREF, or CREF. Recommended procedure for a 10 kHz full scale frequency is as follows: 1. 2. Set VIN to 10 mV and trim the zero adjust circuit to obtain a 10 Hz output frequency. Set VIN to 10V and trim either RIN, VREF, or CREF to obtain a 10 kHz output frequency.

If adjustments are performed in this order, there should be no interaction and they should not have to be repeated.

Recommended CREF vs.
A TC9400, which operates from a single 12 to 15V variable power source, is shown in Figure 5-2. This circuit uses two Zener diodes to set stable biasing levels for the TC9400. The Zener diodes also provide the reference voltage, so the output impedance and temperature coefficient of the Zeners will directly affect power supply rejection and temperature performance. Full scale adjustment is accomplished by trimming the input current. Trimming the reference voltage is not recommended for high accuracy applications unless an op amp is used as a buffer, because the TC9400 requires a lowimpedance reference (see Section 4.9 "VREF", VREF pin description, for more information). The circuit of Figure 5-2 will directly interface with CMOS logic operating at 12V to 15V. TTL or 5V CMOS logic can be accommodated by connecting the output pull-up resistors to the +5V supply. An optoisolator can also be used if an isolated output is required; also, see Figure 5-3.
Power supplies of 5V are recommended. For high accuracy requirements, 0.05% line and load regulation and 0.1 F disc decoupling capacitors, located near the pins, are recommended.

6.0 FREQUENCY-TO-VOLTAGE (F/V) CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When used as an F/V converter, the TC9400 generates an output voltage linearly proportional to the input frequency waveform. Each zero crossing at the threshold detector's input causes a precise amount of charge (q = CREF VREF) to be dispensed into the op amp's summing junction. This charge, in turn, flows through the feedback resistor, generating voltage pulses at the output of the op amp. A capacitor (CINT) across RINT averages these pulses into a DC voltage, which is linearly proportional to the input frequency.

Input/Output Relationships

Input Voltage Levels
The output voltage is related to the input frequency (FIN) by the transfer equation:
EQUATION 7-1:
VOUT = [VREF CREF RINT] FIN The response time to a change in FIN is equal to (RINT CINT). The amount of ripple on VOUT is inversely proportional to CINT and the input frequency. CINT can be increased to lower the ripple. Values of 1 F to 100 F are perfectly acceptable for low frequencies. When the TC9400 is used in the Single Supply mode, VREF is defined as the voltage difference between Pin 7 and Pin 2.
The input frequency is applied to the Threshold Detector input (Pin 11). As discussed in the V/F circuit section of this data sheet, the threshold of Pin 11 is approximately (VDD + VSS)/2 400 mV. Pin 11's input voltage range extends from VDD to about 2.5V below the threshold. If the voltage on Pin 11 goes more than 2.5 volts below the threshold, the V/F mode start-up comparator will turn on and corrupt the output voltage. The Threshold Detector input has about 200 mV of hysteresis. In 5V applications, the input voltage levels for the TC9400 are 400 mV, minimum. If the frequency source being measured is unipolar, such as TTL or CMOS operating from a +5V source, then an AC coupled level shifter should be used. One such circuit is shown in Figure 7-1(a). The level shifter circuit in Figure 7-1(b) can be used in single supply F/V applications. The resistor divider ensures that the input threshold will track the supply voltages. The diode clamp prevents the input from going far enough in the negative direction to turn on the start-up comparator. The diode's forward voltage decreases by 2.1mV/C, so for high ambient temperature operation, two diodes in series are recommended; also, see Figure .

Input Buffer

FOUT and FOUT/2 are not used in the F/V mode. However, these outputs may be useful for some applications, such as a buffer to feed additional circuitry. Then, FOUT will follow the input frequency waveform, except that FOUT will go high 3sec after FIN goes high; FOUT/2 will be square wave with a frequency of one-half FOUT. If these outputs are not used, Pins 8, 9 and 10 should be connected to ground (see Figure 7-3 and Figure 7-4).

Output Filtering
RIPPLE FILTER
The output of the TC9400 has a sawtooth ripple superimposed on a DC level. The ripple will be rejected if the TC9400 output is converted to a digital value by an integrating Analog-to-Digital Converter, such as the TC7107 or TC7109. The ripple can also be reduced by increasing the value of the integrating capacitor, although this will reduce the response time of the F/V converter. The sawtooth ripple on the output of an F/V can be eliminated without affecting the F/V's response time by using the circuit in Figure 7-1. The circuit is a capacitance multiplier, where the output coupling capacitor is multiplied by the AC gain of the op amp. A moderately fast op amp, such as the TL071, should be used.

8.0 F/V POWER-ON RESET
In F/V mode, the TC9400 output voltage will occasionally be at its maximum value when power is first applied. This condition remains until the first pulse is applied to FIN. In most frequency measurement applications, this is not a problem because proper operation begins as soon as the frequency input is applied. In some cases, however, the TC9400 output must be zero at power-on without a frequency input. In such cases, a capacitor connected from Pin 11 to VDD will usually be sufficient to pulse the TC9400 and provide a Power-on Reset (see Figure 8-1 (a) and (b)). Where predictable power-on operation is critical, a more complicated circuit, such as Figure 8-1 (b), may be required.
