INTRODUCTION
Electronic devices that generate an output voltage or current proportional to the frequency of sinusoidal input signal.
It include op-amp for signal processing and RC network for removing frequency-dependent ripples.

CONT..
The division of the differentiator output to the integrator output causes large spikes when an initial value of the integrator is not zero.
Here output is proportional to input frequency without the influence of the input power.

PROPOSED FREQUENCY TO VOLTAGE CONVERTER
It is composed of a differentiator, two RMS-DC converters, and a divider.
Both include a frequency discrimination path and input power calibration paths.
In the frequency discrimination path, the input frequency was discriminated by an integrator or differentiator, respectively.

CONT…
The RMS-DC converter is used to detect the output amplitude of the integrator or differentiator.
In the input power calibration paths, which are only composed of a RMS-DC converter for input power level detection.
Finally, the current or voltage dividers are used to acquire the value of the input frequency.

Frequency discrimination path contains an integrator or differentiator and RMS-DC converter.
the input frequency is discriminated by an integrator or differentiator
Output amplitude of the integrator or differentiator is discriminated by RMS-DC converter.
Input power calibration path detects input power level .

Current or voltage dividers are used to get the value of the input frequency.
Frequency discrimination converts the signal to a DC voltage Vf by power detection.
Composed of an attenuator and another power detector, the input power calibration path gives a DC voltage (Vcal) as a reference to calibrate the signal amplitude

CONT..
The input signal is a pure sinusoidal signal with a peak amplitude of A and input frequency of ωn.

The derivative of this signal at the output of the differentiator will be -
where τd is the time constant of the differentiator. Feeding Vin(t) and Vd(t) into the RMS-DC
converters yields the results as-

Dividing (4) by (3) we get-
where k=kdiv τd is the sensitivity of the converter and kdiv is the scaling factor (gain) of the divider.
The output signal is linearly proportional to the input frequency, ωn , and insensitive to the input signal amplitude, A.

HARDWARE DESCRIPTION 5 operational amplifiers and 3 analog multipliers
are used. One of the op-amp is used for performing the
differentiator. The time constant of the differentiator,τd can be set
by adjusting the resistor, R1 , and/or the capacitor, C1 , values.
Other operational amplifiers are connected with multipliers to realize RMS-DC converters

The last multiplier is used as a divider. The Vg voltage is employed for adjusting the
scaling factor, kdiv , of the divider. Input signal, Vin(t ), is sent to two paths. One is fed to the differentiator and then sent to the
RMS-DC converter I.

Other is fed to the RMS-DC converter II. Next, those outputs are sent to the divider to
manipulate a DC voltage that represents the frequency of sinusoidal input signal as the output of the FVC.
