Summary

2. Analog Multiplier (Squaring a Signal)

Apply the same sine wave to both signal and carrier inputs. The output should be a DC-offset cosine wave at double the frequency (frequency doubling). Test the model’s linearity by sweeping the input amplitude. Proteus Mc1496 Lib

Synchronous Detection: Recovering the original message signal from a modulated carrier. Review: "Proteus MC1496 Library" Summary 2

SnapMagic (formerly SnapEDA): Provides free symbols, footprints, and 3D models for the MC1496 by Onsemi. Place MC1496 from library

1. Place MC1496 from library.
2. Add VSINE for carrier and modulating signals.
3. Add DC sources for ± supplies.
4. Connect output differentially to a DIFFPROBE or use two resistors to ground.
5. Run Transient Analysis for 500 µs.

8. Alternative Approaches in Proteus

If the MC1496 model proves inadequate:
