THEORY OF OPERATIO
Table 1. Output Frequency Equations
The LTC6907 is a precision, resistor programmable oscil-
lator (see Block Diagram). It generates a square wave at
the OUT pin with a period directly proportional to the value
of an external resistor, R
and controls the oscillator frequency to achieve the high-
est possible accuracy. In equilibrum, this circuit ensures
that the current in the SET pin, I
is proportional to the master oscillator frequency, so we
have the relationship:
Where C
Solving for the oscillator period:
This is the fundamental equation for the LTC6907. It holds
regardless of how the SET pin is driven. When a resistor,
