Title: Convert sine to square
Post by elec_eng on Mar 22^nd, 2007, 5:00am

Hi.

What type of circuit could i use to convert a sine wave to a square wave. The resulting square wave would need to have the same frequency and amplitude of the sine wave. The sine wave would be working in the range of 0-10kHz and 0-2 V p-p. Could this be done using a 741 op-amp?

Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks.

Hi,

why can't u use a comparator to compare the input sine wave with a referenc voltage, so u get a square wave output.

This is just an idea.
