#101862 - Right.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
What i mean is an oscilattor that i can control with a CC voltage, or perhaps it could be a circuit that i can control in some other way (like i said, adding capacitance to a tank circuit or something) of course this is not voltage controlled, but "capacitance controlled".

I have seen a circuit where the XTAL that is conected to the MCU have a CAP conected to a XTAL pin and to a MCU pin.

When this pin is driven input(hi-z) or output, the capacitor is connected to GND or not connected at all.

Thus making the running frec, alternate betwewn to values.
I need something like this but with more resolution, and running about 20Mhz.

I think the best way is go to a VCO driver by a DAC, but perhaps someone have some other idea.

Regards Robert.
