Cheap enough. I've heard a lot of complaints about poor availability of PS caps and PP caps. > >> NPO ceramic parts are available, but $$$$. > > >** Really ??? Yeah, 18125A103FAT2A AVX 10nF 1% NPO in 1812 form factor, but about five clams a pop in tens. http://www.avx.com/docs/Catalogs/ccog.pdf >1% tolerance * silvered mica * caps are available in values like 10nF for >big bucks. > > >BTW: > >What the HELL is the point of your TEDIOUS BLOODY nit picking ???? > >Got nothing better to do with your life ??

(NPI) (View in Couriers) Sine----+ | P O<----output T | Cosine--+ But this has an amplitude variation as you move the pot wiper around, perhaps MooseFET knows a trick to eliminate the amplitude change.

GND If you make the phase angle "a" 100 degrees, you can make R1 a 10 turn pot with a counter knob that sets the phase angle in degrees. With the right values for all the resistors, the gain is nearly constant and the phases nearly spot on. |
