Abstract :
One of the stages in designing microprocessor-controlled instruments is a thorough analysis of instrument blocks to adjust them to a more precise method of control. The analysis of a rate generator period is presented that shows two types of tuning and the errors involved. Simple expressions are derived that can be used efficiently to determine maximum frequency or minimum period for assumed errors
