sawtooth vco schematic in trade journal

[Michael Lloyd]

Just letting folks know that the latest Electronic Design magazine (july 26,
1999) features a sawtooth/squarewave VCO in the "Ideas For Design" section.
Here is a link that should get you to the article (but when I tried it,
article wasn't up yet!)
http://devel.penton.com/ed/Pages/sitepage/ed_acces/ideas4ds.htm
Click on "Ideas For Design 7/26/99" on the right hand side of the page, then
go to next article.
It's simple (claims cost is ~$3.00), and uses a Maxim op amp and comparator,
as well as a pair of 2N3904 transisitors as the active elements.
