Continuing my inquiries into noise processing, and taking ideas given in another thread to process noise in the digital domain, here's my idea of how to do that.
Suggestion was to digitize the noise signal, then sample it and use the samples to output a lower-frequency signal. Here's what I came up with:
**broken link removed**
The op amp operates as a simple squarer. The counter divides the oscillator down to the desired sampling frequency.
The part I'm not sure about is what I've labeled the "latch/flip-flop thingy". I think a flip-flop will work here (can you even buy a single flip-flop anymore?): the idea is that when the clock pulse to it goes high, it is enabled, whereupon it samples the input and latches its output to that value (low or high).
1. Will this work?
2. What device do I actually want here?
3. Are there better ways to do this?
