  • Chapter 19 - the Oscillator
    Chapter 19 - The Oscillator The Electronics Curse “Your amplifiers will oscillate, your oscillators won't!” Question, What is an Oscillator? A Pendulum is an Oscillator... “Oscillators are circuits that are used to generate A.C. signals. Although mechanical methods, like alternators, can be used to generate low frequency A.C. signals, such as the 50 Hz mains, electronic circuits are the most practical way of generating signals at radio frequencies.” Comment: Hmm, wasn't always. In the time of Marconi, generators were used to generate a frequency to transmit. We are talking about kiloWatts of power! e.g. Grimeton L.F. Transmitter. Oscillators are widely used in both transmitters and receivers. In transmitters they are used to generate the radio frequency signal that will ultimately be applied to the antenna, causing it to transmit. In receivers, oscillators are widely used in conjunction with mixers (a circuit that will be covered in a later module) to change the frequency of the received radio signal. Principal of Operation The diagram below is a ‘block diagram’ showing a typical oscillator. Block diagrams differ from the circuit diagrams that we have used so far in that they do not show every component in the circuit individually. Instead they show complete functional blocks – for example, amplifiers and filters – as just one symbol in the diagram. They are useful because they allow us to get a high level overview of how a circuit or system functions without having to show every individual component. The Barkhausen Criterion [That's NOT ‘dog box’ in German!] Comment: In electronics, the Barkhausen stability criterion is a mathematical condition to determine when a linear electronic circuit will oscillate.

  • AM Transmitters
    Chapter 4: AM Transmitters Chapter 4 Objectives At the conclusion of this chapter, the reader will be able to: • Draw a block diagram of a high or low-level AM transmitter, giving typical signals at each point in the circuit. • Discuss the relative advantages and disadvantages of high and low-level AM transmitters. • Identify an RF oscillator configuration, pointing out the components that control its frequency. • Describe the physical construction of a quartz crystal. • Calculate the series and parallel resonant frequencies of a quartz crystal, given manufacturer's data. • Identify the resonance modes of a quartz crystal in typical RF oscillator circuits. • Describe the operating characteristics of an RF amplifier circuit, given its schematic diagram. • Explain the operation of modulator circuits. • Identify the functional blocks (amplifiers, oscillators, etc) in a schematic diagram. • List measurement procedures used with AM transmitters. • Develop a plan for troubleshooting a transmitter. In Chapter 3 we studied the theory of amplitude modulation, but we never actually built an AM transmitter. To construct a working transmitter (or receiver), a knowledge of RF circuit principles is necessary. A complete transmitter consists of many different stages and hundreds of electronic components. When beginning technicians see the schematic diagram of a "real" electronic system for the first time, they're overwhelmed. A schematic contains much valuable information. But to the novice, it's a swirling mass of resistors, capacitors, coils, transistors, and IC chips, all connected in a massive web of wires! How can anyone understand this? All electronic systems, no matter how complex, are built from functional blocks or stages.

  • TRANSIENT STABILITY of the WIEN BRIDGE OSCILLATOR I
    TRANSIENT STABILITY OF THE WIEN BRIDGE OSCILLATOR i TRANSIENT STABILITY OF THE WIEN BRIDGE OSCILLATOR by RICHARD PRESCOTT SKILLEN, B. Eng. A Thesis Submitted ··to the Faculty of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Engineering McMaster University May 1964 ii MASTER OF ENGINEERING McMASTER UNIVERSITY (Electrical Engineering) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Transient Stability of the Wien Bridge Oscillator AUTHOR: Richard Prescott Skillen, B. Eng., (McMaster University) NUMBER OF PAGES: 105 SCOPE AND CONTENTS: In many Resistance-Capacitance Oscillators the oscillation amplitude is controlled by the use of a temperature-dependent resistor incorporated in the negative feedback loop. The use of thermistors and tungsten lamps is discussed and an approximate analysis is presented for the behaviour of the tungsten lamp. The result is applied in an analysis of the familiar Wien Bridge Oscillator both for the presence of a linear circuit and a cubic nonlinearity. The linear analysis leads to a highly unstable transient response which is uncommon to most oscillators. The inclusion of the slight cubic nonlinearity, however, leads to a result which is in close agreement to the observed response. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: The author wishes to express his appreciation to his supervisor, Dr. A.S. Gladwin, Chairman of the Department of Electrical Engineering for his time and assistance during the research work and preparation of the thesis. The author would also like to thank Dr. Gladwin and all his other undergraduate professors for encouragement and instruction in the field of circuit theor.y. Acknowledgement is also made for the generous financial support of the thesis project by the Defence Research Board·under grant No.

At higher frequencies, however, where the size of circuit elements is comparable to a wavelength, lumped elements can not be used easily, if at all. This accounts for the extensive use of distributed circuits at higher frequencies.

  • Unit I - Feedback Amplifiers Part - a 1
    EC6401 Electronic Circuits II Department of ECE 2014-2015 UNIT I - FEEDBACK AMPLIFIERS PART - A 1. Define positive and negative feedback? Ans: Positive feedback: If the feedback voltage (or current) is so applied as to increase the input voltage (i.e. it is in phase with it), then it is called positive feedback. Negative feedback: If the feedback voltage (or current) is so applied as to reduce the input voltage (i.e. it is 180out of phase with it), then it is called negative feedback. 2. What are the advantages of negative feedback? Ans: The advantages of negative feedback are higher fidelity and stabilized gain, increased bandwidth, less distortion and reduced noise and input & output impedances can be modified as desired. 3. List four basic types of feedback? Ans: (1) Voltage series feedback (2) Voltage shunt feedback (3) Current series feedback and (4) Current shunt feedback. 4. Negative feedback is preferred to other methods of modifying Amplifier characteristics. Why? Ans: Negative feedback is preferred to other methods of modifying Amplifier Characteristics because it has the following advantages of reduction in distortion, stability in gain, increased bandwidth etc. 5. State the condition in (1+A) which a feedback amplifier must satisfy in order to be stable. Ans: The two important and necessary conditions are (1) The feedback must be positive, (2) Feedback factor must be unity i.e. A = 1 6. What is meant by phase and gain margin? Ans: Phase Margin: It is defined as 1800 minus the magnitude of the Aat the frequency at which A is unity. If he phase margin is negative the system is stable otherwise unstable.

The performance analysis was carried out to determine the efficiency of the blocking oscillator and its potency to be adopted in an electronic appliance using low voltage and current from a battery. Measurements were taken using an oscilloscope, a multimeter, and a light meter. The results show that the system generates electrical pulses of 1.5 to 7.6 VDC and powering the system normally. The system generates 3.167 mW powers to produce the intensity of 176 Lux. On the contrary, the standard system needs 1.8mW to produce 5 Lux. A LED usually takes at least 60mW to get 7150 Lux. Therefore, the system used a simple blocking oscillator seems potential to provide high voltage for powering electronic appliances with low current.

    Ultra Low Power RC Oscillator for System wake-up using highly precise Auto-Calibration Technique Joonhyung, Lim#1, Kwangmook, Lee#2, Koonsik, Cho#3 # Ubiquitous Conversion Team, Samsung Electro-Mechanics, Suwon, Gyunggi-Do, Korea, 443-743 [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract— An ultra low power RC oscillator for system wake-up A. The design of RC oscillator is implemented using 0.18um CMOS process. The modern mobile systems need system clock which consumes low power and thus saves limited battery power in order to wake up from sleep-mode. A RC oscillator operates in the subthreshold region to reduce current consumption. The output frequency of RC oscillator is very weakly dependent on process and temperature variation using auto-calibration. This RC oscillator is featured as follows: the current consumption is 0.2 ㎂; the supply voltage is 1.8V; the output frequency is 31.25 KHz with 1.52(Relative 3σ)% accuracy after calibration; it has only 0.4%/℃ temperature coefficient; its size is 190 um x 80 um exclude bonding pad. I. INTRODUCTION Many applications, such as PDA, mobile communication devices need to operate with low power consumption and low supply voltage to fulfil the requirement of long-term operation. For such System-on-Chips (SoCs), embedded a system wake up circuit is necessary [1]. Several analogue and digital blocks such as clock generator, timer and SRAM for retention must be activated to wake system up from a sleep-mode. Especially, a clock generator, which is the heart of digital circuits, will output unknown waveform of clock and the system will enter Fig.
