Abstract

A simple oscillator circuit, which uses 1 operational amplifier (OA), 4 resistors and 2 equal-valued grounded capacitors, is given. Conditions are obtained to minimize the effect of the finite gain of OA at high frequencies. Continuous tuning is possible over a large high frequency range with ganged capacitors or resistors. Capacitance (C)-multipliers are used to extend the lower frequency range of the oscillator. A typical design of a wideband oscillator (15 Hz to 100 kHz) is given. Experimental results are included, which support the theory.
