Abstract:
1. An integrated circuit ultrasonic and infrared transmitter wit tunable carrier frequency comprising: a frequency divider for receiving an oscillation frequency and dividing said frequency to produce a carrier signal at an output thereof; a pair of multiplexers, a first of said multiplexers having a first output, a first input for receiving a first data signal, a second input coupled to said output of said frequency divider for receiving said carrier signal and a first control input for receiving a first select control signal, a second of said multiplexers having a second output, a third input for receiving a second data signal, a fourth input coupled to said output of said frequency divider through an inverter for receiving an inverse of said carrier signal and a second control input for receiving a second select control signal, said first multiplexer outputting one of said first data signal and said carrier signal to said first output responsive to said first select control signal, said second multiplexer outputting one of said second data signal and said inverse carrier signal to said second output responsive to said second select control signal; a pair of output buffers having inputs respectively connected to said first and second outputs of said pair of multiplexers for providing a push-pull output between respective outputs of said output buffers; and, a transmitting element coupled between said outputs of said output buffers.
