In this section we would like to introduce you a transistor oscillator circuit, called as RC Phase shift Oscillator. First of all we need to know what is an oscillator. An oscillator is an electronic circuit which acts as a sine wave generator. The only requirement of an oscillator is a DC power supply source. It is widely used in frequency variab

le signal generators, so it is a common basic electronic circuit. We had already discussed about Op amp RC phase shift oscillator in earlier posts. Different types of oscillators are available which are based on their performance and components used, like Wein bridge oscillator, Hartly Colpitts oscillator etc. Here we are going to study how we can obtain RC Phase shift Oscillator using a silicon transistor. In an oscillator the frequency generating circuit is decided by the circuit elements used. A basic oscillator circuit contains the following parts If we use a common emitter amplifier with a resistive collector load, there will be a 180 phase shift between the voltages at base and collector. It will also amplify the signal. Three sections of phase shift networks are used which is constituted by resistive-capacitor combination. In that each section introduces 60 phase shift at resonant frequency. Phase shift oscillator is a particular type of audio frequency oscillator. Output signal is obtained across 1 µF capacitor and ground terminal as shown in circuit schematic. If all the resistors, R and the capacitors, C in the phase shift network are equal in value, then the frequency of oscillations produced by the RC oscillator is given as: Number of RC stages will improve the frequency permanence. The total phase shift established by the feedback network must be 180 degrees for sustained oscillations. If we are using N` RC...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
