The use of an external clock to set the full-scale frequency uses a variation of the popular charge-balancing technique to allows the AD651 to achieve linearity and stability far superior : perform the conversion function. The AD651 uses an external to any other monolithic VFC. By using the same clock to clock to define the full-scale output frequency, rather than drive the AD651 and (through a suitable divider) also set the : relying on the stability of an external one-shot capacitor.
