Speedometer/Odometer or Tachometer Application
In some cases a designer may wish to use the CS8191 only
as a driver for an air-core meter having performed the F/V
conversion elsewhere in the circuit.
Figure 8 shows how to drive the CS8191 with a DC voltage
ranging from 2V to 6V. This is accomplished by forcing a
voltage on the F/V
OUT
lead. The alternative scheme shown
in figure 9 uses an external op amp as a buffer and operates
over an input voltage range of 0V to 4V.
Figure 8. Driving the CS8191 from an external DC voltage.
An alternative solution is to use the CS4101 which has a
separate function generator input lead and can be driven
directly from a DC source. Figure 8 and 9 are not tempera-
ture compensated.

have a direct effect on gain and
therefore directly effect temperature compensation.

Note 4: The IC must be protected from transients above 60V and reverse
battery conditions.
Note 5: Additional filtering on the FREQ
