LM231A/LM231/LM331A/LM331 Precision Voltage-to-Frequency Converters General Description The LM231/LM331 family of voltage-to-frequency converters are ideally suited for use in simple low-cost circuits for analog-to-digital conversion, precision frequency-to-voltage conversion, long-term integration, linear frequency modula- tion or demodulation, and many other functions. The output when used as a voltage-to-frequency converter is a pulse train at a frequency precisely proportional to the applied in- put voltage. Thus, it provides all the inherent advantages of the voltage-to-frequency conversion techniques, and is easy to apply in all standard voltage-to-frequency converter appli- cations. Further, the LM231A/LM331A attain a new high level of accuracy versus temperature which could only be at- tained with expensive voltage-to-frequency modules. Addi- tionally the LM231/331 are ideally suited for use in digital systems at low power supply voltages and can provide low-cost analog-to-digital conversion in microprocessor-controlled systems. And, the frequency from a battery powered voltage-to-frequency converter can be easily channeled through a simple photoisolator to provide isolation against high common mode levels. The LM231/LM331 utilize a new temperature-compensated band-gap reference circuit, to provide excellent accuracy over the full operating temperature range, at power supplies as low as 4.0V. The precision timer circuit has low bias cur- rents without degrading the quick response necessary for 100 kHz voltage-to-frequency conversion. And the output are capable of driving 3 TTL loads, or a high voltage output up to 40V, yet is short-circuit-proof against VCC.

A simplified block diagram of the LM231/331 is shown in Figure 3 and consists of a switched current source, input comparator, and 1-shot timer. The operation of these blocks is best understood by going through the operating cycle of the basic V-to-F converter, Figure 3, which consists of the simplified block diagram of the LM231/331 and the various resistors and capacitors con- nected to it. The voltage comparator compares a positive input voltage, V1, at pin 7 to the voltage, Vx, at pin 6. If V1 is greater, the comparator will trigger the 1-shot timer. The output of the timer will turn ON both the frequency output transistor and the switched current source for a period t=1.1 RtCt. During this period, the current i will flow out of the switched current source and provide a fixed amount of charge, Q=i x t, into the capacitor, CL. This will normally charge Vx up to a higher level than V1. At the end of the timing period, the current i will turn OFF, and the timer will reset itself. Now there is no current flowing from pin 1, and the capacitor CL will be gradually discharged by RL until Vx falls to the level of V1. Then the comparator will trigger the timer and start an- other cycle. The current flowing into CL is exactly IAVE = i x (1.1xRtCt) x f, and the current flowing out of CL is exactly Vx/RL ≅ VIN/RL. If VIN is doubled, the frequency will double to maintain this balance. Even a simple V-to-F converter can provide a fre- quency precisely proportional to its input voltage over a wide range of frequencies. DETAIL OF OPERATION, FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM (Figure 2) The block diagram shows a band gap reference which pro- vides a stable 1.9 VDC output. This 1.9 VDC is well regulated over a VS range of 3.9V to 40V. It also has a flat, low tem- perature coefficient, and typically changes less than 1⁄2% over a 100˚C temperature change. The current pump circuit forces the voltage at pin 2 to be at 1.9V, and causes a current i=1.90V/RS to flow. For Rs=14k, i=135 µA. The precision current reflector provides a current equal to i to the current switch. The current switch switches the current to pin 1 or to ground depending on the state of the RS flip-flop. The timing function consists of an RS flip-flop, and a timer comparator connected to the external RtCt network. When the input comparator detects a voltage at pin 7 higher than pin 6, it sets the RS flip-flop which turns ON the current switch and the output driver transistor. When the voltage at pin 5 rises to 2⁄3 VCC, the timer comparator causes the RS flip-flop to reset. The reset transistor is then turned ON and the current switch is turned OFF. However, if the input comparator still detects pin 7 higher than pin 6 when pin 5 crosses 2⁄3 VCC, the flip-flop will not be reset, and the current at pin 1 will continue to flow, in its at- tempt to make the voltage at pin 6 higher than pin 7.

Simplified Block Diagram of Stand-Alone Voltage-to-Frequency Converter and External Components www.national.com 6 Typical Applications (Continued) condition will usually apply under start-up conditions or in the case of an overload voltage at signal input. It should be noted that during this sort of overload, the output frequency will be 0; as soon as the signal is restored to the working range, the output frequency will be resumed. The output driver transistor acts to saturate pin 3 with an ON resistance of about 50Ω. In case of overvoltage, the output current is actively limited to less than 50 mA. The voltage at pin 2 is regulated at 1.90 VDC for all values of i between 10 µA to 500 µA. It can be used as a voltage ref- erence for other components, but care must be taken to en- sure that current is not taken from it which could reduce the accuracy of the converter. PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION OF BASIC VOLTAGE- TO-FREQUENCY CONVERTER (Figure 1) The simple stand-alone V-to-F converter shown in Figure 1 includes all the basic circuitry of Figure 3 plus a few compo- nents for improved performance. A resistor, RIN=100 kΩ±10%, has been added in the path to pin 7, so that the bias current at pin 7 (−80 nA typical) will cancel the effect of the bias current at pin 6 and help provide minimum frequency offset. The resistance RS at pin 2 is made up of a 12 kΩ fixed resis- tor plus a 5 kΩ (cermet, preferably) gain adjust rheostat. The function of this adjustment is to trim out the gain tolerance of the LM231/331, and the tolerance of Rt, RL and Ct. For best results, all the components should be stable low-temperature-coefficient components, such as metal-film resistors. The capacitor should have low dielectric absorp- tion; depending on the temperature characteristics desired, NPO ceramic, polystyrene, Teflon or polypropylene are best suited. A capacitor CIN is added from pin 7 to ground to act as a filter for VIN. A value of 0.01 µF to 0.1 µF will be adequate in most cases; however, in cases where better filtering is required, a 1 µF capacitor can be used. When the RC time constants are matched at pin 6 and pin 7, a voltage step at VIN will cause a step change in fOUT. If CIN is much less than CL, a step at VIN may cause fOUT to stop momentarily. A 47Ω resistor, in series with the 1 µF CL, is added to give hysteresis effect which helps the input comparator provide the excellent linearity (0.03% typical). DETAIL OF OPERATION OF PRECISION V-TO-F CONVERTER (Figure 4) In this circuit, integration is performed by using a conven- tional operational amplifier and feedback capacitor, CF. When the integrator’s output crosses the nominal threshold level at pin 6 of the LM231/331, the timing cycle is initiated. The average current fed into the op amp’s summing point (pin 2) is i x (1.1 RtCt) x f which is perfectly balanced with −VIN/RIN. In this circuit, the voltage offset of the LM231/331 input comparator does not affect the offset or accuracy of the V-to-F converter as it does in the stand-alone V-to-F con- verter; nor does the LM231/331 bias current or offset cur- rent. Instead, the offset voltage and offset current of the op- erational amplifier are the only limits on how small the signal can be accurately converted. Since op amps with voltage off- set well below 1 mV and offset currents well below 2 nA are available at low cost, this circuit is recommended for best ac- curacy for small signals. This circuit also responds immedi- ately to any change of input signal (which a stand-alone cir- cuit does not) so that the output frequency will be an accurate representation of VIN, as quickly as 2 output pulses’ spacing can be measured. In the precision mode, excellent linearity is obtained be- cause the current source (pin 1) is always at ground potential and that voltage does not vary with VIN or fOUT. (In the stand-alone V-to-F converter, a major cause of non-linearity is the output impedance at pin 1 which causes i to change as a function of VIN). The circuit of Figure 5 operates in the same way as Figure 4, but with the necessary changes for high speed operation. www.national.com7 Typical Applications (Continued) DS005680-5 *Use stable components with low temperature coefficients.

Standard Test Circuit and Applications Circuit, Precision Voltage-to-Frequency Converter www.national.com 8 Typical Applications (Continued) DETAILS OF OPERATION, FREQUENCY-TO- VOLTAGE CONVERTERS (Figure 6 and Figure 7) In these applications, a pulse input at fIN is differentiated by a C-R network and the negative-going edge at pin 6 causes the input comparator to trigger the timer circuit. Just as with a V-to-F converter, the average current flowing out of pin 1 is IAVERAGE = i x (1.1 RtCt) x f. In the simple circuit of Figure 6, this current is filtered in the network RL = 100 kΩ and 1 µF. The ripple will be less than 10 mV peak, but the response will be slow, with a 0.1 second time constant, and settling of 0.7 second to 0.1% accuracy. In the precision circuit, an operational amplifier provides a buffered output and also acts as a 2-pole filter. The ripple will be less than 5 mV peak for all frequencies above 1 kHz, and the response time will be much quicker than in Figure 6. However, for input frequencies below 200 Hz, this circuit will have worse ripple than Figure 6. The engineering of the filter time-constants to get adequate response and small enough ripple simply requires a study of the compromises to be made. Inherently, V-to-F converter response can be fast, but F-to-V response can not. DS005680-6 *Use stable components with low temperature coefficients.
