Function Generator Using ICL8038

This circuit uses an ICL8038 integrated circuit to generate sine, triangular and square waveforms with frequencies ranging from 0.95 Hz to 105 KHz and output amplitudes adjustable from 10mV to 10V. Key specifications include less than 1% total harmonic distortion for sine waves up to 10KHz and rise/fall times under 200ns for square waves. It utilizes common components like resistors, capacitors, and potentiometers to implement the design.
