Practical Electronics/Frequency Modulation/555
From Wikibooks, open books for an open world
Frequency modulation is the process of modifying the frequency of one signal according to another. This is the basis of FM radio, which modulates a base frequency with another signal.
Basic frequency modulation can be achieved with a 555 Timer IC. This circuit uses the voltage at the "Control Voltage" pin, Pin 5, to alter the frequency of the output.
