Oscillators
 Oscillator is a circuit that produces periodic waveforms without using any AC input
signal
 Oscillator circuit is energizing or biasing by means of the DC power supply

 Classification of Oscillators
 According to wave form generated
 According to fundamental mechanisms involved
 According to the frequency generated
 According to the type of circuit used

6
Oscillators
According to wave form generated:

 Sinusoidal Oscillators (Harmonic Oscillators):


 Generates sinusoidal voltages or currents (20Hz to 1GHz)

 Non sinusoidal Oscillators (Relaxation Oscillators):


 The oscillators, which generate waveforms other than sine waveforms (Square,
triangular, rectangular and sawtooth waveforms) (0Hz to 20MHz)

7
Oscillators
According to fundamental mechanisms involved:

 Negative resistance Oscillators:


Uses negative resistance of the amplifying device to neutralize the positive
resistance of oscillator

 Feedback Oscillator:
Uses positive feedback amplifier to satisfy the Barkhausen criterion

3. Very High frequency oscillator (30 MHz to 300 MHz)
4. Ultra-High frequency oscillator (300 MHz to 3 GHz)
5. Microwave frequency oscillator (Above 3 GHz)

Oscillators
Condition for Sustained Oscillation (Barkhausen criteria)

Barkhausen criteria states that


1. Magnitude of loop gain of the circuit must be equal to 1
2. Total phase shift around the circuit must be zero (0o or 360o)

Oscillators
RC Phase Shift Oscillator
It is defined as an electronic circuit that uses resistor- capacitor (RC) networks to
produce a consistent oscillating output signal

Oscillators
RC Phase Shift Oscillator

Phase Shift Mechanics:


The oscillator achieves the necessary 360-degree phase shift by cascading
multiple RC networks and using transistor configurations

Frequency Determination:
The frequency of the oscillator depends on the number and configuration of RC
stages and the values of resistors and capacitors

Circuit Variability:
By adjusting the capacitors, often through gang-tuning, the frequency of the RC
phase shift oscillator can be finely tuned to meet specific needs
