Do you mean compressed to a sequare wave? You can do a 180 degree phase shift in a double T RC network how ever, that produces a sine wave. etc..

Seems to me John Larkin or Jim Thompson posted something like this a long time ago. Searching didn't find exactly what I want. I'm building a set of mechanical chimes but wanted something to use until I work out the kinks - and test the pic timing. --

If you've got a PIC, why not use it?

The pic is just putting out de multiplexed pulses (only 4 outputs on the chip expanded to 12) to operate solenoids to strike chimes. Pics don't make sine waves very well without a lot of extra effort. The end goal is a mechanical chime system that can be programmed for different melodies. I have a goal in mind, I'm not interested in changing the goal, and this is just a little side excursion to aid in testing. -- |
