February 17, 2005[Ideas For Design] LPT Port Drives Programmable Slewing-Voltage Control
This design modifies a simple first-order, low-pass filter into a slewing-voltage control that is programmable for its slope and amplitude through a PC's LPT port. These control parameters are typically required for metallurgy studies like corrosion of materials using a potentiostat. (A potentiostat, which is a standalone device, sets the required potential/second for the electrode under corrosion studies.) Figure 1 shows a circuit that supplies...
