A single RC network is all that is required to set up any full scale (FS) frequency up to 500 kHz and any FS input voltage up to ± 30 V. Linearity error is only 0.03% for a 250 kHz FS, and operation is guaranteed over an 80 dB dynamic range. The low drift (4 µV/°C typ) input amplifier allows operation directly from small signals such as thermocouples or strain gauges while offering a high (250 MΩ) input resistance. Unlike most V/F converters, the AD654 provides a square-wave output, and can drive up to 12 TTL loads, optocouplers, long cables, or similar loads.
