Emitter followers are well known for being prone to oscillation if they're feeding a capacitive load. The trait is shared however, with source followers, cathode followers ( Remember vacuum tubes?? ) ...
If you’ve ever fumbled through circuit simulation and ended up with a flatline instead of a sine wave, this video from [saisri] might just be the fix. In this walkthrough she demonstrates simulating a ...
We’ve read a lot about oscillators, but crystal oscillators seem to be a bit of a mystery. Hobby-level books tend to say, build a circuit like this and then mess with it until it oscillates.
A. Determine the frequency for the oscillator of the given circuit. Assume there is negligible loading on the feedback circuit and that its Q is greater than 10. B. Find the frequency if the ...
