Re: Sample & Hold capacitor, CX, for Analog Shift Register

2004-05-23 by Larry Hendry

Well, I plan to leave the original 2 I built stock. I am building 2
more. I think I'll use the cap you have listed below (thanks). Like
you, on this one I intend to socket the chips so I can compare. Once
I know what I want, I'll go back and change the originals.

Now, here is another question. I plan to add internal clocks for my
2nd dual ASR. I see no reason in many cases to tie up an external
osc or clock for the job. I do intend to normal that to the jacks so
I can still jack in an external clock.

I am trying to decide what I think the useful range of the internal
clock shoudl be. I want to scale the clock frequency control to only
include the useful range. Since I am not an experianced ASR user,
any input would be apprecited.
