I toyed with a design not too long ago that would have generated a
logarithmic sweep voltage and swept the MAX038 while applying horizontal
drive to an oscilloscope, and thereby produce 2-D frequency response graphs.
I don't know if that is practical or not, but it sounded cool.
i do not think you can actually get usable numbers out of it.
i only did it once in a school lab this way, was a nice summer day and
we wanted to go home early. amazing what you can do with a digital scope...
well, we did go home early after all...
But i used a professional generator then, no max038.
