In Chapter 9, we looked at the Operational Amplifier or Opamp. In this chapter, we will study oscillators starting with the multivibrator and ending with some Opamp oscillators. We will learn how the oscillators work and how we can analyze their operation using complex numbers.

Multivibrators

There are many applications when electrical circuits use a signal that changes state at a regular interval. This has led to many different circuits that can be used to create this variety of signals. We will start our ...
