This circuit is an astable multivibrator, or oscillator. The two transistors are cross-coupled in such a way that the circuit switches back and forth between two states. In one state, the base of Q1 is about one diode drop above ground, allowing a base....

When the oscillator starts up, Q2 is conducting; the current comes from the capacitor, charging it until the voltage across it is large enough to get a current across the inductor. As the current across the inductor peaks, the output voltage rises (the....

This circuit is an oscillator that generates a square wave. The op-amp starts with its two inputs in an unknown state; let`s say it starts with + slightly higher than. The op-amp greatly amplifies this difference, bringing its output to the op-amp`s positive....

This example shows a tunnel diode used to make an oscillator. The two resistors bias the diode in its negative resistance region. As the current begins to flow through the inductor, the voltage across the tunnel diode increases until it hits the negative....

This circuit is a voltage-controlled oscillator, which is an oscillator whose frequency is determined by a control voltage. A 10 Hz sawtooth oscillator provides the control voltage in this case; this causes the frequency to rise slowly until it hits a....

A form of relaxation oscillator which comprises two stages that are coupled so that the input of one is derived from the output of the other. Basically two amplifiers cross-coupled with regenerative feedback, in it`s most simplistic form. One of the....

An Armstrong Oscillator is a type of oscillator that uses a tickler coil which provides feedback from tank circuit. The Armstrong Oscillator is used to produce a sine-wave output of constant amplitude and of fairly constant frequency within the rf range.....

This circuit represents another version of an Armstrong Oscillator. This particular example uses a crystal in addition to the LC tank circuit used by the previous Series-Fed Armstrong Oscillator. By definition the Armstrong Oscillator uses a tickler coil for....

This circuit is designed to output both a sine wave and cosine wave. This particular design uses an operational amplifier. As shown in the schematic the output frequency is set by the component values as 1Hz. The first operational amplifier outputs a 1Hz....

A Hartley Oscillator is a style of oscillator that uses two series connected inductors or an inductor with a center tapped coil, along with a capacitor. The tank circuit is formed by the inductor and the parallel capacitor. An oscillator circuit requires an....

A Pierce Oscillator is a type of oscillator that uses a crystal instead of a parallel-resonant circuit [LC circuit]. A pierce oscillator also uses the voltage developed from a tap between two capacitors in the tank circuit, as shown to the right. range. Both....

A number of operational amplifier circuits are provided here that are set up to be squarewave oscillators. A squarewave is a Periodic Wave pulse train with a 50 percent duty cycle. The operational amplifier is really just a high-gain amplifier, so....

This oscillator circuit is designed to generate both a rectangular wave and a triangle waveform, around 1kHz to 10kHz. The first operational amplifier in the chain generates the square wave, while the second operational amplifier generates the triangle wave.....

Here is the design of an audio oscillator that runs at approximately 1 KHz. I don`t remember where I got this circuit, probably from EMFRD, since Wes`s book is a treasure trove of useful circuits. This handy oscillator can be used as a source of audio for....

The Hartley Oscillator is an L C oscillator that derives its feedback from magnetically coupled energy in a tapped coil. Hartley oscillator are inductively coupled variable frequency oscillators...

The circuit is only suitable for fundamental crystals as there are no mode suppression components. The oscillator transistor Q104 is cutoff most of the time except for a short period at the peak of the crystal current waveform. Q103 regulates the dc....

The ARMSTRONG OSCILLATOR is used to produce a sine-wave output of constant amplitude and of fairly constant frequency within the rf range. It is generally used as a local oscillator in receivers, as a source in signal generators, and as a radio-frequency....

The beat frequency oscillator (bfo) is necessary when you want to receive cw signals. Cw signals are not modulated with an audio component, you remember, so we must provide one. The action of the rf amplifier, mixer, local oscillator, and IF amplifier is the....

The HARTLEY OSCILLATOR is an improvement over the Armstrong oscillator. Although its frequency stability is not the best possible of all the oscillators, the Hartley oscillator can generate a wide range of frequencies and is very easy to tune. The Hartley....
