Thus a 50% duty cycle is achieved when RA = RB.
If the duty cycle is to be varied over a small range about 50%
only, the connection shown in Figure 3B is slightly more
convenient. A 1kΩ potentiometer may not allow the duty cycle
to be adjusted through 50% on all devices. If a 50% duty cycle
is required, a 2kΩ or 5kΩ potentiometer should be used.
With two separate timing resistors, the frequency is given by:
