Duty cycle alteration circuit

摘要

A duty cycle alteration circuit can simply alter a duty cycle of a pulse by using a Schmitt circuit in a monitor. The duty cycle alteration circuit includes: a microcomputer for outputting a waveform amplifying ratio control signal; an amplifying circuit for inputting and amplifying the waveform amplifying ratio control signal outputted by the microcomputer or a triangular wave and for outputting an amplified triangular wave; and a Schmitt circuit for establishing a logic "high" level and a logic "low" level centering around a reference level according to the amplified triangular wave supplied from the amplifying circuit and for changing a duty cycle on the basis of the logic "high" and "low" levels and for outputting a rectangular wave having an altered duty cycle.
