Analog Dividers – Part I

An analog divider is a function circuit that accepts two input voltages V₁, V₂ and produces an output voltage

where V_R is a constant reference voltage. Figure 10.1 shows the symbol of an analog divider.

Figure 10.1 Divider symbol

Analog dividers are classified into (i) time division dividers and (ii) peak responding dividers. The peak responding dividers are further classified into (i) peak detecting dividers and (ii) peak sampling dividers. A rectangular waveform whose duty cycle (i) proportional to one ...
