PAL fails to realize that injection locking an oscillator requires an oscillator > :-} His post was an attempt to output a subharmonic without the oscillator. There are better ways to handle such a scenario. For example, see my boom-box machine (circa 1979)... Here is an injection-locked OSCILLATOR....

I have an application that requires a frequency input of no more than 2.5Vp. Most oscillator will swing close to the rail, in this case 3.3V. I am planning on lowering the oscillator output by adding a couple diodes in series with Vdd to the oscillator, still in spec for the device. Any issues with this? (10MHz) Rich

Does anyone know the correct name for the 2 transistor LC oscillator that looks like a long tailed pair? I though it was a Franklin oscillator - the google hits are ambiguous to say the least, but its possible I have the name wrong. Thanks for any help.

Now I want to build a PA @ 80.36MHz, 75W on 50 ohm output. What oscillator type shall I use? I am learning RF PA design now. clapp? pierce? colpitts? hartley? or DSS? FPGA or a single high speed DAC + current feedback OPAMP? I want ~50mW from the oscillator. Thanks!

Hi, As an alternative to a bridge type setup I'm thinking of measuring a relatively low Q inductance (a lot of series resistance) by using a tank circuit/oscillator. What kind of oscillator will be the least sensitive to the Q (oscillate closest to (2*pi* sqrt(LC))^-1?) ? And respond reasonably fast to changes in LC.. (seems like that's a conflicting requirement..) I have cont...

Hi, Ive got a radio that has rotary switch selection of crystals for the 1st local oscillator. I want to have electronic selection, where I can change the crystal selected by use of control lines. Can I use something like the 74HC4316 to do this without stuffing up the capacitance of the oscillator and pushing the crystals far off freq? The oscillator is a Colpitts type and the crystals ar...

The thread related to large signal PSpice models and an emitter follower comes from the following problem: I have an oscillator that should drive a digital part of the system. In short, what is the best way to achieve this? My first attempt has been a common base Colpitts oscillator that gives a signal riding on the +Vcc rail. This has been AC coupled to a 74AC gate biased to the poin...

So here's a schematic of a standard LM386 power oscillator: http://www.interfacebus.com/lm386-square-wave-oscillator-circuit.jpg I have an idea for a thing where what I'd like to have is a second LM386 oscillating at the same frequency and amplitude, but opposite phase as the first one, for push-pull drive. But I'd like to not use any further active parts other than the second LM386, if...

Hi, hope I'm posting to the right place. I created a nifty little sine wave oscillator. I have no plans to patent it just want to tell the world about it cause I think it's pretty cool. You can download the pdf file here: http://www.freedomodds.com/osc/ I like it for lots of reasons, but what's more important is peer review. So what do you think of my nifty little oscillator?

I'm trying to design an ultrasonic class C power oscillator to use with a project I'm working on. I'm vaguely basing it off a circuit I recall seeing in an early 1960s-era book called "Industrial Transistor Circuits". It seems I'm not remembering it correctly, and I don't really know much about the design of this type of oscillator as it's having some problems oscillating in simulation...

I'm buidling a little relaxaton oscillator for a project using a cd4093 quad nand gate with schmitt trigger inputs. I'm using a 200 ohm resistor and a 100n cap in the RC network. If I've done my calculations correctly, I was hoping to have an oscillator at around 30kHz. But my frequency counter is only showing around 8. Supply voltage is 5V. I understand that the frequency is depe...

I am searching (for some time now) for data on an Austron Oscillator model #1630-2R (10 MHz). This oscillator has a an octal base and requires +12V for the osc and +26V for the oven. The osc case shows a NAVAIR part # 247AS-C0393-001. I've had no luck searching for either of these numbers. Any help would be appreciate. Thanks. Jim

Hi to all. I'm looking to make a small 433Mhz transmitter using bfr93's. I want to have a oscillator , followed by a small class c amp , both using bfr93. Tho oscillator will be a standard Colpits oscillator , with a SAW resonator. I'd like to attach a class c amp (followed by filtering obviously) to boost the power. I've got a spice model for the BFR93 , from NXP. What I want to know is ...

I don't want anybody to design it for me, but in general how would you make an oscillator with a sine output of constant amplitude over a range of supply voltage (let's say the operating range of the op-amp). What I have in mind is a battery supply, but with no power wasted in a regulator. Sure the oscillator would also waste power but not as much. Would a square output be simpler? ...

Ringing choke circuit and blocking oscillator are different names of oscillator. Are they same meaning or they are different circuit in practice? How to distinctly identify them? thanks

Can someone suggest where I should look for a used tunable RF oscillator around 1 MHz that can be phase modulated from an external input?
