ABSTRACT

A pulse train whose maximum value is proportional to one voltage (V3) is generated. If the width of this pulse train is made proportional to one voltage (V2) and inversely proportional to another voltage (V1), then the average value of pulse train is proportional to V2 V3 /V1 . This is a called time-division multiplier-cum-divider (MCD). There are six types of time-division MCDs.

(i) Sawtooth wave-referenced MCD – multiplexing

(ii) Triangular wave-referenced MCD – multiplexing

(iii) MCD using no reference – Multiplexing

(iv) Sawtooth wave-referenced MCD – switching

(v) Triangular wave-referenced MCD – switching

(vi) MCD using no reference – switching

The MCD using no reference, both multiplexing and switching types, is discussed in this chapter.
