Hi Tracy,

thanks for your help. The filter would have to be like this, right?


pin out >
|/\/\/\|
> frequence
|

---

GND

If not, please let me know.

Best regards, Uli

    No, if I understand your labels correctly, you will need to turn the
    circuit around. The resistor goes between the stamp pin and the
    capacitor.

    1.5kohm smoothed
    stamp pin out >----/\/\/\--o---> frequency out
    FREQOUT | to 'scope
    1khz to 10 khz |
    ===== 0.01
    |
    |
    GND

    With R=1.5k and C=0.01uF the 3db point (1/2 amplitude) is about 10.6
    khz. F = 1/(6.28*R*C)


    The output from the circuit should feed a high impedance load >
    1Mohm. Use a buffer amplifier if the load is low impedance.
