Chip like LTC1799

Looking for alternate part like the LTC1799.

Its a variable 1kHz - 33MHz, square wave oscillator. Uses single resister
to control frequency. 50% Duty Cycle.

Thanks
DaveC

Was it too hard to look up the linear website ?
Special functions, Silicon Oscillators.
They have a bunch of these parts.

TinyLogic schmitt trigger.

TinyLogic schmitt trigger.

Thanks John and Rene for those two rather flippant replies.

I have been down the Schmitt road but found that for any variable
resistor / fixed cap combination the frequency was not selectable.

I was asking for other manufactures of similar chips to the LTC one. If
you knew off the tops of your heads that would be quite help full, but I
can of course do my own research.

Why flippant? A cmos schmitt will oscillate with a single resistor,
and the resistor sets the frequency. It might be useful if you don't
need high frequency accuracy, it's multi-sourced, and very cheap.

Sorry John, was having one of those days.

I did try a schmitt res/cap did not get very good results. I'm clocking a
DAC & ADC so need mark/space within 40-60% and frequency between 20kHz &
800kHz

I dont have a scope where I am, but the ADC conversions became error
riden. When I get back to school in a week I can use a scope so will
further investigate the schmitt option.

I need inverters for this circuit any way so the hex chip is not wasted
on the board.

Does this mean that any frequency between 20 kHz and 800 kHz will do
if the symmetry stays between 40-60%, or must that symmetry hold while
the frequency is adjusted, continuously between these limits?

Yes it must hold, The frequency is controlled by the user. It's for a
guitar pedal. A foot controller is used to adjust the frequency at any
time. If the 40-60% mark/space is lost then you get really awful pops as
the ADC drops samples.

How about:

A CD4060 / HC4060

IIRC the oscillator part of the LT1054 runs at about 30KHz. You can
combine the oscillator with another useful circuit.

A TICPAL22V10Z could make the oscillator and divide by two with some extra
sections to make other glue logic.

What's bleeding-edge about a mediocre-accuracy oscillator?
It operates at around 30 THz? (;-)
