FM Modultion and Demodulation Us-Ing PLL: Experiment 7

This experiment uses a phase-locked loop (PLL) voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) to generate a frequency modulated (FM) signal. The student is asked to build the circuit shown, which uses the VCO portion of a 4046 PLL. First, the student will investigate the circuit using a "test input" and record the waveform and frequency for different VCO input voltages to determine the FM constant, Kf, of the modulator. Second, the student will use a function generator set to 5 kHz, 2 Vpp, and 5 V DC offset as the modulating input signal to the VCO and observe the output FM signal.

Experiment 7

FM Modultion and Demodulation using PLL


Objective
In this Laboratory exercise you will generate a single-tone modulated FM signal using the
Voltage-controlled Oscillator (VCO) in a Phase-locked loop (PLL)

Task
Build the circuit shown next. This uses the VCO portion of the 4046 PLL.

Figure 7.1:
First, investigate it using the test input circuit that is shown in Figure 2. Find the
frequency and sketch the waveform for the three VCO input voltages shown in the table below.
From that information, deterine the FM constant , Kf, for your modulator. See the data analysis
section below for guidence in this calculation.
Second, instead of the test input circuit, use, as the input, the function generator with
the sinusoidal output listed as follows:
Frequency = 5 kHz (fm = modulating frequency)
Amplitude = 2 volts (p-p)
D.C.Offset = 5V
