This application note describes the use of the LTC1799 precision monolithic oscillator in various instrumentation applications, including transducer circuits, carrier-based amplifiers, sine wave generators, filters, interval generators, and data converters. The LTC1799 is a high-accuracy, high-stability RC oscillator that can be tuned over a wide range.
The document introduces the LTC1799 as a simply applied, broadly tunable, accurate RC-type oscillator suitable for various instrumentation tasks. It highlights that the device requires only a single external resistor to set frequency, eliminating the need for an external timing capacitor, and offers a small 5-pin SOQT-23 footprint.
