in the 4049 are not a matched pair... they can (iirc) sink much more current<BR>
than they can source. The one time I tried a linear circuit with them, it<BR>
oscillated<BR>
at the crossover point... causing me to have to redesign the whole damn circuit.</BLOCKQUOTE><BR>

And you couuldn't use the oscillation in a drum </FONT></HTML>
