Title: more power from LTC1799 ?
Post by: basshell on February 27, 2012, 11:35:14 AM
how can i increase the voltage of the ltc1799 oscilators output signal..im getting about 2.3 volts and i want closer to 6/7 volts.?

put it through sum sort of amp circuit? 

hope someone can help me out.

with a 5v supply you should be getting a 5v peak to peak output for most of the frequency range if you measure it on a scope. It can't give you a bigger output than the supply, and according to the datasheet the maximum supply voltage is 5v, although you might get a way with a little more.

I guess you could increase the output signal using an opamp, but you's need a separate power rail to run it from.
