  • Is the MAX038 from AliExpress/EBay really better than the similar XR2206-kit? And is the MAX038 a genuine MAxim chip?

    I had read that there was a way to make it sweep, actually 2 different types of sweep circuits in it. And, another showed a way to fine tune the amount of distortion in the sine wave by adding another potentiometer circuit I think. Looks much better than the 2206 providing I can get the distortion down to a decent level.

    Hi Roger! I guess there is another function generator build in my future! :-)

    Interesting project, but the ranges indeed seem off. Nice design too.

    It's very sad that there are no original ICs available anymore. At least the 2206 is available as a "fake" non genuine but seemingly good enough part.

    Is Max038 better than 2206? For the audio track, since I intend to modify it to add the sweep function...

      For basic functionality in the audio frequency-range the XR2206 is sufficient. The MAX038 has/had the advantage of the 20 MHz max. frequency compared to around 2 MHz for the XR2206.

      Would you be willing to share the circuit diagram that you showed in this video? I have this unit, and it would be useful for troubleshooting.
