74LS124 is a part of the 74XXYY low schkotty IC series. The 74LS32 IC has a wide range of working voltage, a wide range of working conditions, and directly interfaces with CMOS, NMOS, and TTL. The output of the IC always comes in TTL which makes it easy to work with other TTL devices and microcontrollers. The IC 74LS32 is smaller in size and it has a much faster speed which makes it reliable in every kind of device.
What is a Voltage Controlled Oscillator?
A Voltage controlled oscillator is a type of oscillator where the frequency of the output oscillations can be varied by varying the amplitude of an input voltage signal. The oscillation frequency varies from few hertz to hundreds of GHz. Voltage controlled oscillators are commonly used in frequency (FM), pulse (PM) modulators, and phase locked loops (PLL).
