<DIV>Hi Scott:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What program program did you use to make your schematic? It looks neat.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Tnx. </DIV>

The<BR>PWM waveform comes from pin 13 (timer channel 0) of the MCU. The output is<BR>a 57.6 KHz square wave with the duty cycle determined by the sine wave<BR>lookup table. The PWM frequency and its harmonics are far enough out of the<BR>audio passband to not be a problem.<BR><BR>Scott<BR>N1VG<BR><BR>-----Original Message-----<BR>From: Andrew Rich [mailto:vk4tec@tech-software.net]<BR>Sent: Monday, August 23, 2004 1:46 PM<BR>To: scott@opentrac.org; 'TAPR APRS Mailing List'; 'TAPR PIC Development<BR>Special Interest Group'<BR>Subject: RE: [aprssig] APRS tone encode question<BR><BR><BR>Scott how do you get this waveform ?

For<BR>audio stuff, Yoshimasa Electronic's RAL package is great.
