High peak currents associated with capacitive leads necessitate careful grounding techniques. Timing and bypass
capacitors should be connected close to Pin5 in a single point ground. The transistor and 5
㏀
potentiometer are
used to sample the oscillator waveform and apply an adjustable ramp to Pin3.
